In a nutshell: Shoot your way 007 style through Quantum of Solace while experiencing many Casino Royale flashbacks along the way.
Why you should play it: Solid first-person shooter action. Can make one feel like Bond. Good looking environments. Nice voice acting from Daniel Craig. A few good multiplayer modes to choose from. Vast selection of powerful weapons to blast away enemies with.
Why you may want to avoid it: A lot of similar animations shared by all characters. Multiplayer is arguably stronger than the single player experience, which sadly is not saying much. Bond moves are too obvious and really do not add much to the game. Short campaign.
Final Thoughts: This game could have been much worse. However, I would be lying if I said that I didn’t have high hopes. It is the best Bond game I have played in a while but once again that is not saying much for Quantum. So many flashbacks to the previous movie make me wonder why this game was not named Casino Royale. Worth a bargin bin purchase price or a rental, but only buy if you are a hardcore Bond fanatic.
