007: License to Kill

Before James Bond was saving the world with cinematic flair, he was crashing pixelated helicopters in 007: License to Kill. This top-down action game takes the movie and crams it into six bite-sized missions of explosions, awkward flying, and questionable hit detection. You’ll drive, swim, fly, and die - a lot. The controls are about as smooth as a shaken martini, but there’s a strange joy in finally beating that one level that had it in for you. Bonus points if you hum the Bond theme while failing spectacularly. It won’t help, but it feels right.
