* FranchiseKiller: Put an end to the Creator/{{Activision}} Bond games and, for a time, future ones as well from any other publishers. After its failure, Activision quickly pulled this and all of their older 007 games from various online stores (including their own and Steam). Bear in mind this was all done less than two and a half months after the game was first released. While no official word has ever been given as to why, it is highly likely that Creator/EonProductions pulled the rights from them, and appeared to be unwilling to hand them to anyone else. It would be eight years before 007 returned to video games with the announcement of Creator/IOInteractive[=‘s=] ''Project 007''.

* TheOtherDarrin: Most characters are based on their film portrayals, with the exception of four characters. Blofeld is an amalgamation of his three film appearances in the series (and is voiced by Glenn Wrage), Jinx is modeled after Gabriela Montaraz who was originally cast in the role before Halle Berry was attached to the film, Felix Leiter is played and modeled by Demetri Goritsas and not specifically based on any of the character's film appearances, and Holly Goodhead is based off of (and voiced by) the actress Jane Perry. In addition, Bond is voiced by Timothy Watson instead of Creator/DanielCraig (the only Activision-published ''Bond'' game not to have Craig voicing his version of Bond). Craig still gets credited as Bond, though.
* RecursiveAdaptation: Many of the game's costumes, levels, and set piece action sequences (particularly those from the ''Goldfinger'' and ''On Her Majesty's Secret Service'' levels) strongly resemble those from Creator/MonolithProductions' ''VideoGame/NoOneLivesForever'', which was itself an AffectionateParody of the "groovy 60's" era of James Bond.

Likewise, the pre-order DLC's (007 Pack and Nemesis Pack), as well as the Eve and Patrice characters for multiplayer, were already scarce-to-non-existent ''before'' they were pulled, and can't be obtained now unless someone managed to snag a gift copy in their Steam account.
