Review: James Bond 007: Blood Stone (Crush! Frag! Destroy!)

CFD!'s Sage Knox investigates the second Bond-themed release this season:

"Despite the nostalgia felt for the Nintendo 64′s GoldenEye (it’s not as good as you remember), 007′s only had one truly great video game adaptation: 2004′s Everything or Nothing (it’s better than you remember). Oddly enough, it was a third-person shooter, kicking the precedent set by previous Bond titles — Tomorrow Never Dies for PS1 not withstanding.

"Upon the announcement of Bizarre Creations’ new take on Daniel Craig’s version of James “Blonde,” my mind raced back to sitting on my parents’ basement couch, spending way too much time replaying that pesky stealth mission and going head-to-head with an anachronistic Jaws, and I hoped that some supernatural force would shine its light down upon Blood Stone and take me back to those happy days. But it turns out that the light was shining up from below, and that the supernatural force was, in fact, the Devil."

So it's FFXIII with James Bond?

This just makes me want to replay Everything or Nothing...

Ndigity: Exactly! Play that instead! Plus, Pierce Brosnan > Elephant Man

Never played a Bond game. This affirms that I haven't made a bad life-choice. :P

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10

I hope one day we get some remakes for the following

The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)

Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time

I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.

The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.

The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.

Here's hoping for an amazing sequel

I don't even remember this game existing

jokerman272416d ago

Yeah, it does and it's pretty good actually!

CobraKai2416d ago

I might have to check it out. My other favorite Bond game was an original story, Everything or Nothing.

DigitalRaptor2416d ago (Edited 2416d ago )

I remember this being pretty damn good. I might replay it soon on PS3.

Who needs backwards compatibility? 😏

jokerman272416d ago

Exactly, save those old systems ;)
