For James Bond, things are always a bit shaken — but that’s the way he likes it. This game has tons of gadgets, from laser-crammed wristwatches to suitcase copters. It also has a shiny veneer of 1960s style — not to mention new dialogue from the original 007 himself, Sean Connery. Like playing through the Indiana Jones stage show at Disneyland, From Russia with Love is dazzling, but it’s all rigged, leading you through a set course of events. Shaken, yeah, but not stirring.
