Default Nightfire

Nightfire is being prasied as the best 007 game since golden eye.
it got a 8.5 overall score from ign . looks like we got yet another first class fps out , but how will it stack up against the resently released ts2 ? will the gc version be hampered greatly by the release of nintendos mega bomb aka METROID ?
your thaughts ?

I'm getting it this Christmas. Why? Because it's a good multiplayer, what Metroid Prime doesn't have. I've already finished TS2.

Also, that's a better score than what the Agent Under Fire got. I'm looking forward to it.

Their two different games so it's hard to compare their success/popularity to one another. I don't reckon I'll be it getting it. I don't play those shoot up games. I am however, going to get Metroid. I'll still be curious to see if it becomes as popular as Goldeneye was.

EA never develops thier games, they only plublish them... you are saying they didn't plublish it?

-EDIT-

I checked, EA did in fact plublish it, so

I know they published it, but I wasn't aware they didn't make 'any' of their own games. Don't they make their sports games?

Anyway, you just proved your point in one way or another. So why should praise be handed out to EA?

Oh, and I thought that Agent Under Fire was developed by EA. I know it wasn't developed by Eurocom.

My aunt knows that I absolutely loved Goldeneye (a James Bond game) so she'll probably buy me 007: Nightfire for Xbox or something...

or, despite the fact that I do not own a Gamcube, she might buy me the Gamecube version....cause last Christmas, she got me Rogue Leader

EA owns a whole bunch of development houses, there are very few games developed by "Electronic Arts"

Madden is developed by Tiboron (or somthing like that)... NBA Live is developed by "NuFX"

They just classify them under one big name which pertains to the game's genre.

EA Games= Pretty much anything non-sports... mostly PC games www.eagames.com
EA Sports= All simulation sports games www.easports.com
EA Big= All Arcade sports games (also known as EA Canada www.easportsbig.com

@ Stu's aunt!

Of course EA does a good job with those games... I figure it's just like how Nintendo helps and coordinates their 2nd parties.

Yeah, it's kinda like how Nintendo would be if they were a third party... or how Sega is now.

Like how "Sonic team" and "Visual Concepts" are two different developers but they still would classify as a "Sega" game.
