EA "The World is not Enough" (2000)
That was Brosnan's answer after EA asked how much he wanted in payment to voice Bond
EA had secured the exclusive rights from MGM Interactive and Danjaq, LLC, to develop and publish multiple titles using the Bond character for the new Millenium, and The World Is Not Enough was the first of the new Millenium. It boasted suprisingly good graphics for a game released in the Nintendo 64 era, and went back to the successful GoldenEye gameplay formula. It stars Pierce Brosnan's James Bond -- his likeness, anyway, but not his voice. Instead, Adam Blackwood voices Bond as he must protect Elektra King (Sophie Marceau. voice of Henrietta Bass) from the evil terrorist Renard (Robert Carlyle, also voiced by Blackwood). But just like in the film, King is working with Renard to blown up Istanbul with a nuclear submarine in order to take over the world's oil market. Bond must team up with Dr. Christmas Jones (Denise Richards, voiced by Caron Pascoe) to stop their plan. John Cleese voices his character of "R." Coming off the failure of Tomorrow Never Dies, it was decided that The World Is Not Enough would go back to its roots as a first-person shooter. In the Nintendo 64 version, it would also see the reintroduction of the multiplayer portion of the game that gave GoldenEye 007 such a lasting appeal. The World is Not Enough allowed you to create scenarios with multiple AI 'bots' as well as your friends. The PlayStation version features 11 single-player levels with two levels of difficulty. However, it does not have a multiplayer mode.
