Half-Life 2
Gravity gun and shooting demand precision.
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Console FPS aim and rail-shooter timing carry missions

James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Split-screen friends add mild prediction; campaign AI is scripted

Almost no randomness.
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Missions play out identically each attempt
Optimization3 vs 4
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Half-Life 2
Linear progression with no builds.
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Gadget usage and stealth routes raise mission ratings
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
