Hack And Bash: How 007 First Light Mixes High-Tech Gadgets With Old-School Brawling

From the iconic gun-barrel sequence to his depictions in formative first-person shooters like GoldenEye, James Bond and guns have, historically, gone hand-in-hand. What's been refreshing about 007 First Light, then, is how it leans much more on physical brawling combat.
