James Bond 007: Blood Stone (2010)
Overall good buuuuut
So... overall this bond game was pretty good. Though, there are some major flaws with this game.
Story was pretty good, seemed a little less complex than the movies, but I can't really complain about that since it had my full attention through the entire story. So overall story I'd say was an 8 or 9.
The major flaws that came from this game are really the mechanics that make it so annoying to play... and that might be because times moved forward, this is an older game. Reload sometimes just won't work, and don't get me started with the car segments... GOD. The car segments are in EVERY SINGLE LEVEL. Now most people would love to drive the Bond vehicle. But this is a little too much... a couple times throughout the story I would have been happy. The driving mechanics are awful... remember Watch Dogs? How bad the driving was in that game? Okay well double how awful the driving in Watch Dogs was and that's Blood Stones driving. Not to mention, with how much I hated the vehicular segments, had they of cut out all out, it wouldn't have made a difference, since there's lots of pieces missing when you go into a cut scene and the developers just expect you to put the little pieces together... so.. a couple seconds of a cut scene with the car would have been just as good. I dunno, I really hated the car segments though, which were by far the most frustrating part about this game. Especially where there's no hint or telling you when a trap is coming, the car gets totaled and you're forced to go back to a checkpoint... I dunno... I personally think this part of the game wasn't finished or ready to be in the game but they put it there for the big fans of the movies.
Aside from those things, I liked this game. I'm sure some would disagree but this is my opinions.
Play it for yourself! You'll still have fun either way!
