Got an e-mail the other day with a teaser from the developers for this game and I've been super hyped ever since. Figured everyone here would be pretty excited for it as well. Not much to see here, but it's from IO Interactive, the developers of the recent Hitman games which I've been obsessed with playing lately. Funny enough, I was playing a certain level of one the other day and the fact that I had to infiltrate a secret, underground lab paired with the orchestral score made me wish I was playing a Bond game. Then lo and behold, they're working on one. For anyone that's played the Hitman games, their use of locations are fantastic and feel really lived-in despite not being open-world and the stealth aspects of the game are a lot of fun. So I'm really excited to see what they do with this. According to the developer's page, they describe the game as such: A totally original Bond game sounds great, and I'm glad it won't just be a movie tie-in as those have been on the whole pretty disappointing, so I think this is the right way to go.

They’re the perfect developers for a 007 game.

Even though it's going to be an original Bond game, I wonder if Craig will be involved or if the character design will be based on him since they're going for an origin story angle.
The last Bond game I remember enjoying was Everything or Nothing, which wasn't a movie tie-in (and also had a great theme song).

They’re the perfect developers for a 007 game. Absolutely agree. Playing Hitman lately has made it even more apparent they're perfect for it.

The last Bond game I remember enjoying was Everything or Nothing, which wasn't a movie tie-in (and also had a great theme song). I'm hoping it'll just be a totally new incarnation, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was modeled after a young Craig or Connery too. I didn't play Everything or Nothing, but I grew up obsessed with Agent Under Fire and thought it was a ton of fun. So as long as it's like a third-person version of something like that, I'd be happy.
