007 Racing
EA Games gives players the license to drive like James Bond in 007 Racing.
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., August 7, 2000 – Thrill seekers wishing to drive like James Bond in all those exotic, gadget-filled cars will get their wish with the upcoming release of 007 Racing. The game will be published late this fall by Electronic Arts for the PlayStation game console.
007 Racing stems from an exclusive multi-year worldwide licensing deal EA previously announced with MGM Interactive, Danjaq LLC and Eon Productions to develop, publish and distribute a series of interactive titles on multiple platforms based on the James Bond character. In addition to 007 Racing, EA is also developing an interactive title for multiple gaming platforms based on blockbuster movie The World Is Not Enough.
007 Racing allows both Bond and racing aficionados to test their mettle behind the wheels of some of the super spy’s most famous vehicles while executing action-filled missions inspired by memorable scenes from among the 19 blockbuster James Bond films.
Each vehicle in the game will carry a full complement of gadgets and weaponry from the Bond series of movies as well as new weapons that will help the player overcome the specific challenges of new missions. The arsenal, supplied by MI6’s “Q Branch”, includes machine guns, surface-to-air missiles, spike and mine dispensers, rocket launchers, an oil slick generator, tire shredders and bulletproof windows. The vehicles will also feature four-point physics, which accentuate 007’s white-knuckled driving style and a progressive damage model that affects the look of the car and performance.
Key features in 007 Racing will include: Being James Bond and getting behind the wheel of some of the most amazing autos in the world of James Bond. Famous vehicles from BMW and more modified by MI6's Q Branch.
More than 15 exciting missions inspired by famous Bond films, ranging from evasion to elimination.
The ability to battle famous Bond movie villains. Diverse interactive levels set in Amsterdam, South America, Monte Carlo and New York. A full complement of Q lab weapons and gadgets. Dramatic 007-style physics and car damage.
Hollywood-style pacing and special effects. Multiplayer support for exciting peer-to-peer action
