Things about 007 First Light you just found out

Since there’s one of these for Hitman things, thought I’d create one for Bond too. Enjoy!

It’s more something about the Bond movies, but I just heard that Bond didn’t have the scar described in the novels because it wouldn’t have been practical to give the actor a scar in makeup every day. Apparently, the productions were rather scrappy at the beginning.

They were! So much so that the first watch Bond wears on camera was probably just a watch owned by Sean Connery. The Gruen Precision 510.

Man, sharing photos from Steam Deck is so unbelievably annoying and convoluted.

As I finished the game, I learned that Eve is Moneypenny’s first name. Apparently in past “Jimbo” media it’s been Eve or Jane.

Also, the game’s main menu features a one-button shortcut to continue the story where you left off. So. IOI. Add a one-button shortcut to play Freelancer from Hitman’s main menu please!

At this point, it seems to be that if Moneypenny is white, it’ll be Jane, and if she’s not white, it’ll be Eve. It’s a thing, for some reason.

I don’t have a picture, but just before the Antarctica mission, when Bond needs to acquire his equipment from Q-Lab, if you open the vent in the floor in the stress testing chamber and turn around, you can see a big origami cat behind a grate

Thought I heard Tinariwen during the black market part and checked the credits for the licenced songs used in Aleph (plus Vietnam):

I thought so too! Makes perfect sense of course.

It just dawned on me, after playing the story for the second time. at Aleph, towards the end when Bawma, helps take out everyone saving greenway and bond. The one who shot the bazooka to takeout the car, was in my opinion Damien. He was wearing the same mask, that he fought you with at the final battle.

Yep, Damien and his mercenaries were in Aleph to kill 009 and take his evidence against Webb. He then had to silence Bond and Greenway…I think.
