No One Lives Forever is a 60s-era Spy thriller with an excellently-written comedic narrative. This feminist masterpiece features British Spy Cate Archer as savvy woman in a man's world. Though her own agency expects little from her due to her gender, she proves to be the most capable person on either side of this battle of good and evil.

The game features very intense stealth action where you are challenged to think your way past cameras, armed goons, and even unfortunately-placed civilians. Though linear, the game features a number of collectables that require replaying levels, once you have more gadgets, to acquire. No One Lives Forever is charming and classy, and was certainly ahead of its time. During a time of many bland FPS clones, this game stood out from the pack.

The game has received critical acclaim, receiving multiple game of the year awards and having many retrospectives written about it. This game did the spy genre correctly, and the fact that the protagonist is a well-portrayed female is just the sort of icing on the cake that this industry sorely needs.


Please consider this game as an inductee to the Video Game Hall Of Fame.

I've only played about halfway through the tutorial so-far so I cannot pass any judgements quite just yet.
