Also, even if personally someone doesn’t mind the concept of pre-ordering from their own individual perspective, they can simultaneously make a decision based on the collective good of their fellow consumers and choose not to partake in the practice in an act of solidarity with fellow working stiffs.

I agree to whatever the meaning of the long sentence above is. 
“I would like you to join HIS Majesty’s Secret Service”
It just hit me that this will be the first incarnation of James Bond EVER to not be in service to the Queen… such a simple line but it really does drive home that this Bond will be more “modern” than ever…
Technically untrue (but practically true, nonetheless). In Casino Royale (1967) while the real James Bond is in the queen’s service, all the other James Bonds are in the service of Sir James Bond himself, rather than the queen. It’s not an officially recognized nor authorized movie but the people who made it owned the rights to the book at the time. It’s a parody at best and a very bad movie in any sense though.
Interview with Andreas Krogh, the gameplay director, from Game Informer:
At least the soundtrack is brilliant.
You’re 100% right on that. Herb Alpert was a genius!
He’s still active. And of course still a genius. Made so many careers possible apart from being a great musician himself.
I guess he is! He’s one of those people who I always assume must have passed years ago but then I’m surprised to find he’s still around. 
The ign fan fest trailer was just a slightly different version of the Bawma trailer
007 First light will require an internet connection for challenges and other content, same as WOA, as predicted.
Fun fact: Hakan Abrak said he got the idea of doing live service things from the success of contracts in Hitman Absolution.
Wonder how FOMO will be utilised for in-game events to make it exactly like WoA.
“The full main campaign is playable offline” does sound like more wiggle room than WOA gets, though. I know you can play barebones WOA offline, but with Bond being a more linear, narrative-heavy action game, this quote at least assuages the fear of needing an always-online connection to play the game.
WoA’s full campaign is technically playable offline.
Not surprised by this though. WoA cross-progression felt like something they’d crafted for 007 First Light, and putting it in WoA was just part of a wide test before the game launches.
Same.
20 router resets.
According to Arti on stream, the progression might be available offline then sync accross when you get connected again, although I’m not too sure about the exact details on what is meant by this.
