From Russia with Love (VG) is a 2005 adaptation of the 1963 film of the same name with a later released 2006 PSP version and is notable for having Sean Connery returning from retirement to voice act for the game as well as replacing all mentions of SPECTRE with the stand-in Octopus due to legal disputes at the time. Weapons can be upgraded with schematics the player finds, resulting in weapons having fairly unrealistic capacities by the end of the game.


The PSP version simplifies the upgrade system and slightly alters the stats of certain weapons.

Pistols

Walther PPK

Appearing as the "Silenced PP7" (Story) and "Wolfram PP7" (Multiplayer) the Walther PPK is the only suppressed weapon in the game and Bond starts with it. It holds an inaccurate 12 rounds by default on consoles but 7 on PSP until upgraded. Early screenshots show Bond with an unsuppressed version in the campaign however this was replaced with the suppressed version for the entire game in the final product with the unsuppressed version only appearing in multiplayer. In the multiplayer mode "Survival Royale" the player can purchase a "Plantinum Gun" returning from 007: Everything or Nothing, it uses a PPK Icon but the in-game model is the Wright Magnum and it holds 5 rockets at once. It also replaces the Llama Model XVIII in cutscenes recreating scenes from the film.

"Wright Magnum"

The "Wright Magnum" appears as the game's magnum. It can be upgraded to hold more than 6 shots in the Cylinder.

Shotgun

Remington 870

Found in the first Istanbul level, the "Bosch Shotgun" is usable by both the player as well as Octopus/Soviet troops. It holds one shell in it's "clip" that is reloaded by pumping it, Bond never inserts any new shells into the shotgun and when upgraded can fire the Shotgun twice before pumping it.

Submachine Guns

Carl Gustaf m/45

The Carl Gustaf m/45 appears in game as the "Kronen SMG". The model appears to be mirrored resulting in the lack of an ejection port and bolt; the receiver is also slightly shortened ahead of the magazine well, and the magazine is inserted behind said well, making it resemble some sort of small metal foregrip.

Rifles

AK-47

An AK-47 appears as the "Assault Rifle" and as the only weapon used by the Soviets that fits them. In the PSP version, it has different textures and some British Soldiers use it in the first misison as well as the training robots in the MI6 training faculity. (Both only used the Carl Gustav m/45 in the console versions.)

M3 Carbine

A sniper rifle appears as the "Sniper Rifle" (Consoles) or "Leopard Sniper Rifle" (PSP). It appears to be based on mostly the M3 Carbine with a 30 round magazine, a single shot bolt-action and the M2 Flash Hider. Like the Bosch Shotgun, Bond can only fire one shot before "reloading" by using the bolt (the magazine is never replaced) until being upgraded, at which point two rounds can be fired before needing to work the bolt-action.

"Armor Piercing Rifle"

The "Armor Piercing Rifle" is a single shot anti-armor rifle.

Machine Guns

Browning M2HB

The Browning M2HB replaces the fictionalized machine gun of the console versions in the PSP version. Unlike that version however, it is not usable and only shows up in the "Gypsy Camp" level. (As any level where Bond was able to use a machine gun either had it removed or was cut from this version.) A very downsized Browning M2HB also appears to be mounted on jetpacks.

Fictional Machine Gun

A fictional machine gun with at least some elements from real life machine guns appears in the console verions, it has spade grips like the Browning M2HB and oddly appears to have a carry handle of sorts despite being a heavy mounted machine gun.

Explosives

Dynamite

Dynamite appears in either pre-placed spots to disarm or must be planted on objectives.

Mk 2 hand grenade

What appears to be the Mk 2 hand grenade appears being used by everyone, Bond can shoot a grenade on an hostile's belt to take enemies out with their own grenades.

M1 Bazooka

A very downsized M1 Bazooka appears as the "Bazooka". It's notably animated differently depending on the version, in the main version Bond fires it from the hip with his hand behind through the grip while the PSP verison gives the Bazooka more proper animations.
