Any particular James Bond movies or games you like?

Since they're finally doing a new Bond game after...sheesh 8 years now the series has been stuck in my head once more and I suppose it'd make for an interesting conversation.

As for favorite Bond titles, movie wise it's a hard choice but with Connery I'll take the obvious pick and go with Goldfinger, since it's a welcome break from the Spectre focused instalments that made up most of the Connery era (that I feel kinda had a weak pay off in You Only Live Twice). Great villain, fun lines , definitely dated but it's a 1964 movie, that's to be expected.

With Moore I can never get a firm grasp on which of his movies I prefer as I like them all to a certain degree, as well as both of Dalton's movies (his second containing my favorite theme). Brosnan it's also hard but I often lean more between Goldeneye or Tomorrow Never Dies. With Craig it's only Skyfall.

Game wise, much a fan of Nightfire, Everything or Nothing and From Russia with Love.

Curious to hear what titles everyone else enjoy, might give me some new perspective on some of the movies or games.

Oh boy, are you two missing out haha. I'm quite surprised, at the same time...not too surprised since the Craig films tend to take forever to come out and the lack of any...big Bond games or really any good ones in over a decade

Oh i dunno, I always thought the Goldeneye game for N64 was very overrated. I liked it at the time but I always thought the multiplayer was pretty shitty compared to other games that already existed at the time (Quake, Unreal Tournament) or that came out shortly afterwards (Counter Strike). If you look at it now, it's honestly a hideously ugly and clunky game. Godawful controls on that piece of shit N64 controller (wtf was that thing about??) and just boring, ugly gameplay.

As far as movies go, I've seen a lot of them but couldn't honestly tell you specifically which ones. Growing up it was just sort of a part of the background noise of watching TV with grownups. I remember A View to Kill being pretty good. There's one where he goes on skis... there's one where he goes underwater in a car.... there's one where he fights voodoo guys... and one where he goes to the moon.

I liked the Daniel Craig Casino Royale movie quite a lot. Especially cuz I love mads mikkelsen. the rest of the daniel craige ones were pretty forgettable

Dr. No, Goldfinger, You Only Live Twice, The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, Goldeneye and Casino Royale are my personal favourites. Also, soooo many fun memories of playing Goldeneye N64 throughout my childhood with all the cheats activated hahaha it was great

Perfect Dark corrected most of the issues with Goldeneye, and expanded on it quite a bit. You could play against AI that was impossibly difficult at highest setting, tons of unique futuristic guns including the ability to pilot a missile, better graphics and frame rate with the memory add on, more features such as dual weapon modes, drone guns, new game modes, and so on. I played Goldeneye with my friends constantly when it was out. Later, we moved on to Halo.
