007: Licence to Kill is a 1989 video game based on the James Bond film of the same name, developed by Quixel and published by Domark in 1989. It was originally released for DOS and then ported to the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, MSX and ZX Spectrum.
The game's storyline closely follows that of the film, and consists of six scenes in which Bond chases Sanchez, who has murdered Felix Leiter's bride. The scenes within the game vary, and include helicopters, on foot, mid-air, underwater, water-skis and behind the wheels of a tanker truck.
NES version
The game was also developed for the NES by Tengen, but was unreleased as publishers Domark felt that too long had passed since the film's release.

Re: 007: Licence to Kill
I watched a playthrough of the Amiga version of this game on YouTube, and the top-down shooter style reminds me of some of the Game Boy Bond games. It also seems a bit random/difficult at points too, but the music is pretty cool.
