James Bond: Blood Stone – Is Activison letting us down again?

July 17, 2010 in News comments 5

Well we have to keep an eye on things, and it seems one of OXCGN's writers is doing so as well.

Especially around Activisions activities of late. Now it's pupping out games at a decent rate, and it seems that i t is not too fussed as to their contents either.

Come check out what the next James Bond Multiplayer game is all about, or more to the point, not about - James Bond.

Nobody was more excited to learn that there will be another James Bond game than me. Until I read the description of its multiplayer.

In a sea of Gears Of War/ Killzone/ Modern Warfare/ Call of Duty/ Medal of Honor gritty dark shooters I have sorely been missing the old school exotic tongue-in-cheek (and tongue elsewhere) fantasy world of a James Bond game.

At first I thought it would just be the Wii Goldeneye remake announced at E3 this year. Now Activison has announced that James Bond: Blood Stone, a third-person shooter with driving elements, will be released in November on 360, PS3, and PC and is being created by Bizarre Creations, more notable for their driving games like Project Gotham Racing and Blur.

    Activision is like EA last gen. Losing touch. I agree about the multi aspect too. James Bond is more mainstream and should have a more mainstream styled multi.

      Not even EA was this bad. EA were still putting out occasional games of quality. If you remove Call of Duty from their game lineup then the last 6 years they haven't made a good game. EA were still making good games last gen and they were still publishing good games.. They are making better games now but they were never as bad as Activision are now.

      I'd say they are worse. They've effectively shot one of their cash cows and are following it up with a Dairy Queen treat. Hungry hungry activision D:

    Honestly, all I care about is the single player. Multiplayer for me, is just something to play when I'm not in the mood for SP- I don't care if they mess it up, just provide a solid campaign.
