Graphics: 2.5 out of 10
Sound: 3 out of 10
Gameplay: 2 out of 10
Hardness factor: 7 out of 10
Overall: 2 out of 10
Graphics: The graphics in this game were really bad. You'd expect this
kind of stuff for the Commodore, but not for the NES. Definitely should
have been worked on.
Sound: The music is also pretty bad. It's annoying and pretty intense
but it's mainly made up of beeps. I'm starting to think that this game
was a port from a commodore game. Sound effects are just as bad.
Gameplay: A really bad sidescroller. You play as James Bond's son and
go through a multi-layered level. The dynamics of this game are really
bad, but I don't think I have to go over them. Anyway, enemies are lame
and take forever to kill, you move too slowly up latters, bosses are
hard, puzzles are really cruddy like arrange the tile type things, and
there aren't really any weapons in the game besides the gun you start
out with. This is just a bad game and it is devoid of all fun.
Hardness factor: This game had a ton of problems in it. The controls
were excruciatingly bad, your character moves too slowly, enemies
(some with heat seeking weapons) take forever to kill, you can't jump
too high.the list goes on and on with this game.
Overall: 2 out of 10. If you ever find the Commodore version of this
game, it might actually be fun. However, I'd expect better on the NES
(not that the Commodore isn't a great system, it just has some really
low quality games).
