007 First Light

combat is

Everything about this gam is great: The immersion, graphics, story, combat, and the camera movement (sway) is excellent.

This is one of the best games I have ever played. I loved every moment of this game and can't wait for more of this series.

An hour of training that could have been game play. Too much scripted sneaking. Hand to hand combat is weak. Combat was fun and the story was pretty good.

I’m about three hours in and it’s a very annoying set up with the game mechanics, the plot is not really all that interesting there’s much better games out there that are much more responsive and better plots. I would expect these for a $20 game but at this price point I would expect much better

007 First Light was amazing. No bugs on my end, super smooth gameplay, great graphics, and the story actually felt like a full Bond movie. As someone who grew up playing 007 games, this one really brought back that childhood feeling. They outdid themselves man I’m ready for the next installment!!!

The story is fairly good, but it feels rushed. You dont really get to be emotionally invested in the characters because it moves on too quick. Finished in 13 hours and there are a lot of big bugs that were a little game breaking. Id recommend waiting for it to be on sale. Not worth your $70.

It’s totally overhyped. Expected way better graphics for a 2026 game. There are way better graphics in other games. Not worth 70usd for less than 20 hours of gameplay. Feels like an upgraded hitman with a bit more action and animations.

Now while I think this is above average only in its gameplay elements like the gunplay, stealth, and combat. This carries an elite presentation and feels very Bond like in its characters and story.

This game massively misses the mark in being an engaging playable experience. Its "linear" design is a dressed up way of saying that the game is basically a long string of cinematic cutscenes with a few hours of game time in between. Storyline is boring and uninspiring, lack of meaningful or inspiring item/action interactions, and the character plots are kind of rinse and repeat and come off borderline cheesy Spiderman vibes. Mechanics and physics can feel sloppy at times, esp in the few driving segments. The amount of special combo inputs there are versus them actually engaging is also a massive miss, it's like the game was over engineered in this regard only to not be fully fleshed out and create more of a frustrating experience. All in all, this game was overhyped and the review scores here are doing some heavy lifting that the game itself clearly can't. I had higher expectations for IO and genuinely wish I could get my money back even after just 4 hours of play and zero intent to pick this game back up. Lesson learned though, buy the physical copy so if it ends up being AAA hype slop at least it can be returned and get the money back.
