James Bond: Quantum of Solace PS3

Review

A James Bond movie tie-in that unfortunately lacks any of the gadgets and fun aspects we expect from 007. Treyarch have created an enjoyable shooter that fails to live up to expectations, and is far too short to be considered anything special. The inclusion of a good cover system and blind firing is excellent, and some of the levels are truly fun including battling along the moving train from Casino Royale, but overall the frenetic gameplay and the short lifespan mean this title won't live up to most people's expectations. GoldenEye it is not.
 
7.0 / 10
"Below expectations."

Seamlessly blending the heart-pounding action and excitement of the upcoming Quantum of Solace feature film with the Casino Royale movie, the title propels players into the cinematic experience of international espionage.
