The Game's Secret Ending...?

Bond calmly walks out of the Egyptian Temple.
Black Dinner Jacket, Golden Gun in hand.


One of the game's best level outros.
Calm & cool. Definitely not shaken.

Despite being "killed" by James Bond, the Voodoo sorcerer Baron Samedi re-appears and proceeds to laugh endlessly...
Just as he does at the end of the Bond film, Live and Let Die.




As the game's final image after completing the final bonus mission, it's rather unsettling.



By setting the controller configuration to 2.3 Domino or 2.4 Goodhead, it's possible to mess with the level-ending cutscene and produce something unexpected.

Named after Domino from Thunderball, and Dr. Holly Goodhead from Moonraker.
(Both brunettes have previously helped Bond stop an evil villain)
Eight controller settings on Bond's watch - Each named after a different girl that Bond has been with...
Time flies (when you're having fun).






Pulling the "Z" trigger on the second controller will fire a shot that hits Baron Samedi.
(Pressing a button on the first controller will exit the scene)
Baron's laugh gets interrupted by a Golden Bullet.






A bloody Baron Samedi falls towards the camera...



Another playthrough, this time he does a bit of a twirl and falls backwards.


As neat as this trick is, somehow it doesn't seem like something that was included intentionally.


Silence is Golden.


With the Baron's act being cut short, the camera just sits there indefinitely until a button is pressed on the first controller.





Quick animated graphic of the Baron's fate in the Egyptian Temple:

Death is only the beginning...
