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 Agent Under Fire, in 2001. It was very well-received overall, with praise being given to the well-written storyline, impressive graphics and fun multiplayer modes. However, it still fell in the shadow of its predecessor, ''[[GoldenGoldenEye Eye007 (1997 (Videovideo Gamegame)|GoldenEye]]'', despite its attempts to move away by introducing a more engaging, in-depth plot.
 
''Nightfire'' was released on [[PSPlay Station 2]], Gamecube, Xbox, Gameboy Advance, PC and Mac. However, there were numerous differences between the PC and console versions of the game in terms of both gameplay and storyline.

** The Jeep you use on the ''Island Infiltration'' mission has a similar arsenal.
