See Nokia's ill-fated 'Moonraker' smartwatch in action
After Microsoft acquired Nokia's phone business, it shelved the Moonraker smartwatch that the phone maker had been working on in favor of its own Band device. The Microsoft Band wasn't able to make a lasting impression and it too was discontinued last month. When word of the Moonraker broke last summer, we had little more than an image and a few details on the watch's basic functionality. Thanks to Nokibar on YouTube, we now have a look at the gadget in action.
Jaws and Drax actors reprise roles in 007 Legends, written by GoldenEye scribe
Activision has attached a few more names to the upcoming 007 Legends, which follows a virtual Daniel Craig through several old James Bond movies. The game is written by Bruce Feirstein, who wrote the film versions of Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World is Not Enough, and worked with Activision on Bond remakes and adaptations in the past, including 007 Everything or Nothing and 2010's Bloodstone.Richard Kiel joins the cast to reprise his role of Jaws from Moonraker, while Michael Londsdale appears as Hugo Drax, the villain whose aim is to destroy humanity. It was previously announced that Skyfall's Naomie Harris and Rory Kinnear will both appear in the game as well, as Bond's love interest and the MI6 Chief of Staff, respectively. We'll probably hear about even more cast and crew announcements for 007 Legends on the way to its release on October 16.
007 Legends trailer reveals October 16 release date
We apologize that this trailer for 007 Legends is buried after an action-packed, tension-ridden, sexually charged video advertising the coming James Bond film, Skyfall. We're sure anyone interested in a James Bond video game is completely outraged by the violent hedonism of James Bond movies. Again, our sincerest apologies.007 Legends is due out October 16, its trailer eventually reveals, following in-game scenes from Moonraker, one of the six James Bond storylines mashed up for the title. The 007 Legends trailer begins at 1:24, and in all honesty we could have very easily cut out just the video game portion and spared you the trouble of having to watch the Skyfall trailer.If anyone has a problem with our editorial decision, feel free to take it up with our staff – all 0011 of us.
