While Goldeneye 007, the Wii remake of the classic Nintendo 64 FPS, has been received much more positively than expected by fans, Blood Stone 007, the other Bond title released recently bar on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, hasn’t faired so well. IGN gave it just 5/10 for “fulfilling only a few Bond obligations” and stating that Craig’s on-screen incarnation could be just about any gaming hero. NowGamer rated Blood Stone more highly at 6/10 (but still lower than Goldeneye’s 8/10) for “doing a lot of things right” but having “simplistic shooting mechanics”. The road isn’t looking good for next-generation Bond then, judging by the critics, but when have they ever been 100% right? Expect my review of Blood Stone 007 very soon!
