‘007 First Light’ Game Review: The Best Bond Game Ever Made

The idea of a modern James Bond video game felt strangely impossible. Bond remained one of the most iconic figures in entertainment, especially after the end of Daniel Craig’s era as Agent 007. But gaming never truly found a consistent way to reinvent him after the legendary era of GoldenEye 007, and some low-budget games were made just to keep the rights. Different studios tried;
