Tom's Games writes: "James Bond 007:Quantum of Solace is the latest "James Bond" game to hit shelves, and it arrives at a time where there're no shortage of games to choose from due to the holiday rush. With the release of the film however, Quantum of Solace no doubt was scheduled to hit shelves before the movie went live on the silver screen. With Quantum of Solace now available on all current platforms (with the exception of the PSP), one has to ask the looming question that has been following the Bond series of games for quite some time now. Is Quantum of Solace another James Bond dud, or is it a worthy successor to the beloved Goldeneye game for the Nintendo 64?"
Everyone’s been thinking about James Bond lately, with the franchise’s latest cinematic release tantalisingly close yet pushed back by the pandemic. It serves as a reminder of the wider obstacles faced by this particular franchise—one that can be nimble, competitive, and invigorating—but yet is a behemoth always struggling against the weight of its reputation in a changing creative landscape. The video games inspired by these films are a particular testament to those difficulties, considering their trajectory: an early enormous success in GoldenEye, through weakly received adaptations and original stories, to a near-decade of non-existence.
In the 38th episode of GO!, the first person who plays as three different characters in three different video games who have the same first name as an Achievement Hunter becomes this week's victor and gets a sticker to add to their collection.

You should try Blood Stone if you haven't already. It's going for the same price as Quantum but I reckon it's a better game all round.
I actually enjoyed the game. The scenery was really good and varied. It wasnt the best shooter ever, but it was certainly worth playing if you like the bond franchise at all. Bloodstone was good to, just different.
