Players of the unique games will keep in mind Wong as a covert operative who in some way managed to tug off high-octane missions, dramatic killshots, and backstabbing in a persistently clear dress-and-high heels combo. Her latest look, nonetheless, seems to be much more sensible and geared to the true wants of an lively agent.
