Very unimpressive. The music at the end got ruined thanks to the unwanted vocals.

sinncross5105d ago

What?

those added vocals are actually pretty cool.. I am sure they have been using them since Casino Royale.

Either way, I am not totally convinced by this trailer. It looks... ok... will need to see more.

Tomonobu Itagaki5105d ago

That's very impressive to see Activision is still supporting Playstation 2.

Hope they make a comeback next gen

There were a few non-film ones back on PS2/GC that were really good.
I can imagine the cinematic elements of those games would look even better now.

Everything or Nothing is my second best Bond game behind Goldeneye 64, followed by Nightfire.

fulldeepdive2190d ago

we have a lot of great video games and we have a lot coming out this year...lame

What's happened to the James Bond franchise in general?

It, much like Star Trek, Star Wars, has had too much of the "real world" shoved down their throats. That plus people with agendas hijacking them thinking they can use brand value to deliver "transformative" messaging while lacking the awareness, the creative talent, needed to make them entertaining at even a base level.

Also, getting back on subject, doesn't help that movie studios don't see gaming studios as equals who need as much if not more time to do their jobs right.

Tross2190d ago (Edited 2190d ago )

Yeah, come to think of it. Maybe their absence can be attributed to the falling popularity of the videogame adaptation or even the licensed franchise tie-in, as well as the gaming landscape being quite different now than it was. The Bond titles filled a niche of FPS-action titles, the likes of which are not exactly uncommon nowadays. That said, the Bond games were a fun take on the genre that I'd like to see return one day.

DaReapa2190d ago

Activision's tenure with the license attributed to the lack of quality games.

roadkillers2190d ago

That's true. You couldn't get past the PS2 days without a movie tie in. Now, I can't think of the last game tie in.. even Star Wars was different

The Quiet Rise And Decline Of James Bond Video Games

Developers have retreated from the James Bond property, a sad state of affairs for what was once the gold standard of licensed video game adaptations.

You'd think that a developer would release a 007 game more akin to a stealth franchise like Hitman by now to play up on Bond's espionage

FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE WAS ONE OF THE BEST OH THE CO OP AND MP

I can remember more than a decade ago, the Goldeneye-esque shooters were fairly popular. Unfornately, Goldeneye-esque shouters seemed to die out after 2005, with the polarizing PDZ having a good online population for a few years. Conversely, the extremely content rich and well designed Timesplitters: Future Perfect underperformed in sales. As for bonds games, I haven't played one since 007 Nightfire (a personal favourite). I personally, think if 007 games (and Pefect Dark games) were to return, the titles should take influence from Deus Ex. With levels designed to allow the players to either play stealthy, uses gadgets or just shoot up the place.

This is a look at five games that were obviously going to fail but the development team ignored the red flags.

Some times it should be obvious when a game is going to be an epic failure.

isarai3836d ago

I feel like Battleborne is the next game on this list. Nothing about it looks bad per say, but it's really not standing out, and no one really seems to care about it (including me) it's just like that pretty normal kid that sits at the edge of class no one really pays much attention to.

Masterchief_thegoat3836d ago (Edited 3836d ago )

resident evil 6 was already doom, when i was playing it with the ps3 controller. qte ,camera story.killing wesker was dumb mistake to replace him with a boring character. re6 was a big mess

deadpools_n643836d ago

I'm gonna throw evolve in on this. Yes it sold opening week. Unfortunately it fell fast from there on out at was critically panned.
