London
Taken from early on in the game's story, this demo mission
sees 007 at a party on the banks of the River Thames, when
suddenly guards burst in an take a woman hostage. Shooting
is the order of the day as you dispatch goons left, right
and centre using a tuned up aiming system that is far superior
to "Everything or Nothing" even at this early
stage.
Further on in to the mission players get to experience
the "Thunderball" jetpack for the first time,
and the controls are extremely easy for such a tricky piece
of equipment. The action then shifts into an aerial battle
with a helicopter (holding the girl hostage) around the
Big Ben clock tower. Just as 007 takes care of the helicopter,
a cut scene jumps in to show Bond rescuing the girl from
the flaming wreck - just in time as usual.
Zurich
The second demo level comes from the warehouse location
set in Zurich. The large warehouse, containing dozens of
cars and even smelting equipment, is the scene for a large
firefight. In the demo 007 is equipped the with jetpack
(again) to fly over the gantry's and shoot the goons from
afar. In the final version of the game it is expected that
players can drive the Aston Martin DB5 around the warehouse
as well, making full use of the "optional extras".
