Gearbox developed the PC version of 007 Nightfire in 2002. While it shared the same plot as Eurocom’s much more ambitious console game, it was a fundamentally different title, being based on the by then dated GoldSrc engine from the original Half-Life, which Gearbox was intimately familiar with. It looked worse than the console version too and lacked some of its features, like driving segments.

true(this is what i heard)
and people tried to make fangames/mods to return back the missing features. (kinda what i said)
