'''''James Bond 007: Nightfire''''' is a [[First-Person Shooter]] released in 2002, featuring the [[Not Quite Starring|likeness]] of Pierce Brosnan as secret agent [[James Bond]] in an original storyline.
 
The plot of the game revolves around an undercover investigation into philanthropist Raphael Drake, whose organization, Phoenix, works tirelessly to decommission old Nuclear reactors and missiles.
Line 10:
It soon becomes apparent that Phoenix’s intentions are less than scrupulous, sending Bond to Austria, Japan and an orbiting missile platform to stop Drake’s fiendish plot.
 
''Nightfire'' was James Bond's second EA FPS outing after 2001's Agent Under Fire, which it is a sequel to (the CIA agent Zoe Nightshade appears in 2001both). It was very well-received overall, with praise being given to the well-written storyline, impressive graphics and fun multi-player modes. However, it still fell in the shadow of its predecessor, ''[[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|GoldenEye]]'', despite its attempts to move away by introducing a more engaging, in-depth plot.
 
''Nightfire'' was released on [[PlayStation 2]], Gamecube, Xbox, Gameboy Advance, PC and Mac. However, there were numerous differences between the PC, console and consoleGBA versions of the game inare termsall ofcompletely bothdifferent gameplayworks andthat follow roughly the same storylineplot.

* [[AKA-47]]: The Wolfram PP7/P2K (Walther PPK/P99) and the Raptor Magnum (Desert Eagle), among others. This was the final Bond game to apply this to Walther products.
* [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign]]: Guards at Drake's Austrian castle will repeatedly shout "Einzelfeuer!", German for "semi-auto". Appropriate to yell at allies in a firefight the first few times but quickly becomes silly as that's practically their entire vocabulary, plus enemy guards will still use full-auto or burst settings while solo guards still yell it.
* [[Back Tracking]]: The mission ''Phoenix Fire'' sees you make your way through the office building you previously infiltrated in ''Night Shift''; only with more armed guards and an attack helicopter.
* [[Bond One-Liner]]: Numerous times.
Line 41 ⟶ 43:
** [[Scaramanga Special|The Golden Gun]] is a usable weapon in multi-player. As always, it comes with a [[One-Hit Kill|1-hit kill.]]
** [[Goldfinger|Oddjob's]] [[Nice Hat|Bowler Hat]] is available as a 1-hit kill throwable weapon in multi-player.
** [[GoldeneyeGoldenEye (film)|GoldenEye]] is a multi-player scenario. You and your partner must find the keys and activate the Goldeneye.
* [[No, Mr. Bond, I Expect You to Dine]]: Subverted.
{{quote|'''Drake:''' Why waste caviar on someone who won’t live long enough to enjoy it?}}
* [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]: “It's a pity, I fell quite hard for you. And now it's time you did the same for me.”
Line 49 ⟶ 51:
** The Phoenix building also has ceiling mounted turrets that deploy and fire at Bond if he is detected by the security cameras.
* [[Shown Their Work]]: The Fort Knox multi-player map on the PC version is pretty much an exact replica of what you see in ''[[Goldfinger]]'', as well as including access to the exterior of the building.
* [[Stealth -Based Mission]]: The mission ''Night Shift''.
* [[Villain with Good Publicity]]: Raphael Drake is the leader of an organization that makes disused nuclear reactors and arsenals safe and founder of a World Refugee fund: He uses the nuclear weaponry he “disarms” as part of a grand plot to take over the world.
* [[Weaponized Car]]: The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish totes machine guns and missiles, as well as a smoke-screen and the ability to transform into a [[The Spy Who Loved Me|submarine]].
