007: Everything or Nothing is a third-person action-adventure shooter featuring James Bond, portrayed and voiced by Pierce Brosnan in his final video game appearance as the character. Developed by EA Redwood Shores with additional work by EA Canada, the game presents an original storyline centered on a nanotechnology-based terrorism plot. The script was written by Bruce Feirstein, Danny Bilson, and Paul De Meo, all of whom had prior experience with Bond-related projects.
The game mixes on-foot shooting with driving and vehicle combat, and introduces a two-player cooperative mode for the first time in the Bond video game series. The single-player campaign spans a variety of international locations, with missions combining stealth, action, and gadget use. In addition to the campaign and co-op play, the game includes competitive multiplayer arenas.
The GameCube version was released in February 2004, specifically on February 17 in North America, February 27 in Europe, and February 11 in Japan. It was also made available for PlayStation 2 and Xbox during the same release window.
Critical reception for the GameCube version was generally positive, with an aggregated score of 84/100 on Metacritic based on 41 critic reviews. Reviewers praised the cinematic presentation, the variety of gameplay styles, and the inclusion of high-profile talent such as Brosnan, Judi Dench, Willem Dafoe, and Heidi Klum.
