First Quantum of Solace footage looks hot

After the break. The video shows a switchable first- and third-person camera, impressively destructable environments and a lot of shooting. We like. Fingers crossed nothing goes wrong with this, but from the look of it it’s Bond crossed with the CoD4 engine made by non-idiots. That should probably equal a win. Take a look.

CoD4 meets Bourne going off that.

It’s certainly looking promising though, I just hope they’re not going to be too hamstrung tying its release in with the film.

Was surprised (pleasantly) to hear a Wii version is also in the works – maybe they’ll use the CoD3 engine?

Looks good have to say I love the bond games.
So much variety with the gameplay

Looks alright. Really dislike the character models – especially Bond. Looks too… shiny. Certainly nowhere near as good looking as Call of Duty 4.

But ‘alright’ is certainly a step forward for recent Bond games to be fair.

Didn’t look too bad. Robo’s “CoD4 meets Bourne” seems like a pretty good description. What’s happened to the faces, though? They’re like masks – no expressions, no movements. Scary.

Looks fun to me. Spies, shooting and not shit. Winner.

Plus the game covers Casino Royale too, so we can have that knacker-smashing QTE!

No sign of QTEs so it’s inherently not as shit as Bourne already! WIN!

/awaits inevitable rose-tinted ‘not as good as goldeneye’ shite to start piping up.

There’s a neck-snapping QT thing there, isn’t there? I remember a “Y” button.
