Tomorrow Never Dies is a PlayStation video game based on the 1997 movie of the same name. Having been made in the wake of the stellar GoldenEye on Nintendo 64, the series strayed from the FPS format, though they would return to it in The World Is Not Enough.

Unused Graphics

Hmmm...
To do:
Weapon names are loaded in VRAM that won't show normally (SKI POLE) or at all (ROCKET).

007TND - Early Loading Text.png

An early loading text graphic. Loading screens have the text from the first loading screen already on them so this is not used. The blue glow also indicates it is not used, as all the text graphics in the game use a red glow, to match the movie's red titles glow.

TND-Stats-unused.png

A screen for mission stats that is unused.

007TND - HMS Devonshire.png

A loading screen for the removed HMS Devonshire mission.

007TND - Developers Picture.png

A picture of the developers.

TND-Mission-2-LoadScreen.png

Loading screen for mission 2 shows earlier layout for that mission.

TND-LoadMission-unusedgrap.png

Menu graphic for Load Mission which goes unused as this option doesn't exist.

TND-Pause-UnusedGraph.png

Unused Pause graphic.

Multiplayer Mode

This game, along with the PlayStation version of The World is Not Enough, lacks a multiplayer mode, but these images show that the idea may have been considered during development and ultimately canned.

Debugging Functions

The game has a lot of cheat codes, some of them being debugging codes.

  • At the main menu, code Select, Select, Circle, Circle, L1, L1, Circle, L1, L1 opens up all missions to choose from. When returning, you need to input the code again to access all missions.

  • At the main menu, code Select, Select, Circle, Circle, L2, L2, R2, R2 puts a controllable box on the screen. Also, the console outputs the following:

hold select for no auto-repeat  
hold L1 for fast movement  
R1 to print values

When you press R1, console prints the box location coordinates, similar to the following (default position):

Hidden Selection

Hmmm...
To do:
We want images of the German, French and Japanese translated versions?
Image of the menu after loading the mission.

Using cheat devices, one can access a simple menu with two options. After disabling the code, pressing X restarts the mission. If the code is active, this screen comes back as soon as the mission starts. Pressing Triangle to exit proceeds the trip to the main menu or if the code is active, crashes the game. The text in the menu text won't show up completely in German version, and Japanese version won't display it properly. In Japanese version both X and Triangle restart the mission. This might be an early idea for restarting the mission after a game over, as a toggle is implemented in The World Is Not Enough.

Unused Weapon Name

Using cheat devices, you can add "Ski Pole" to your inventory. Bond acts like he's operating an assault rifle. This weapon is used in skiing sections, but its name is never seen normally.

The code for NA and German versions are 800EAA34 002C and 300EAEFC 002C.

Tomorrow Never Dies-Mercedesmission5.png

A Mercedes logo appears in the game's data for Mission 4, suggesting that the developers had intended a different ending of the mission where you had to drive the BMW similar to Mission 6 and encounter the Mercedes that Carver's henchmen drove similar to the film.

Unused Mobile Phone

An unused mobile phone icon intended for Mission 5 and Mission 10 was cut from the game. These two graphics forming the phone are left.

Unused Elevator Interior

This item can only be seen with DPCELLDRAW value being at 0.

  • “SKIPOLE” (Un-seen weapon name)

Regional Differences

Japanese Version

Japanese version has some differences compared to the US and EU versions:

  • Only Memory Card Slot 1 is supported.
