Description
A two-year delay (Tomorrow Never Comes?) only added more fuel to the explosive hype surrounding this espionage-themed, third-person action-adventure game for the PlayStation. As spy extraordinaire James Bond, players sneak and shoot their way through more than 10 different missions on a quest to thwart the latest global villain, megalomaniac media mogul Elliot Carver. Loosely based on the feature film of the same name, Tomorrow Never Dies has Carver dreaming up a fun and original way to spark World War III and, naturally, it's up to our supersuave hero to save the world.
Tomorrow Never Dies takes players through a variety of game environments. In addition to attempting ground missions on foot, Bond straps into skis and gets behind the wheel to complete his goal. Of course, players test a variety of Q's latest techno-creations along the way, ranging from exploding cufflink detonators and microscopic tracking devices to ski pole rocket launchers and satellite up-link cameras.
The variety of action moves available to the player is impressive. Bond performs 360-degree tuck and roll moves, dive and fire attacks, and stealth wall sneaks. Because the intelligent enemies react to audible and visual cues, stealth is often the key to a successful mission.
Support for the dual shock controller ensures players will be shaken, if not stirred, by the adventure. --Eric Twelker

Editorial Review
Expectations ran high for this game, due to its exciting, eponymous movie and the exceptional Nintendo 64 James Bond game GoldenEye 007. And while this game presents the variety and intrigue one would expect from the beloved licensed-to-kill, martini-sippin' spy, it would have benefited from a bit more polishing. Don't expect this game to be on par with the games and movies that preceded it. In fact, if you're looking for a GoldenEye-like experience for the PlayStation, you'd be much better off with the WWII period piece, Medal of Honor.
Tomorrow Never Dies uses an auto target mode, but it's far too restrictive to be of use here, requiring players to stand still in order to keep the target locked. The game loyally follows the film, but when the action intensifies--such as a hot pursuit on skis, or flying a nuclear warhead-laden jet out of a hot zone--players are forced to either relinquish control entirely or have minimal input.
Gadgets from Bond's old pal Q are too sparsely used, and the absence of any multiplayer mode seals this game's fate as a small diversion rather than a stellar accomplishment. --Jeff Young
Pros:
1.) Excellent music
2.) Good use of real film clips to propel the story
Cons:
1.) Very poor control scheme and limited distance vision inhibit stealthy playing style
2.) Skiing and driving sequences feature outdated graphics and ambiguous controls
3.) Easy levels and no multiplayer mode give this game little, if any, replay value
