From what I remember of the game (played it on an Amiga), it also was very close in tone to the Austin Powers series of films.
I wonder if I should spend some time trying to get it running on my Steam Deck - there's a couple of Reddit threads around getting it to work.
It was a PC/PS2 game.

You're right - my memory must be failing. I would have played it on the PS2, not the Amiga.
Austin Powers references and parodies the same material, though leans a bit more toward the old Bond movies. NOLF may have referenced Austin Powers as well, but clearly pulls from a lot of the older material.
