Missing in Action – 007 Blood Stone

What you’re about to read through isn’t a review in the conventional sense, it’s more of a guide to a game that you might have not played recently simply because it got bad reviews or it didn’t get enough publicity. These games will be our personal choices of games we believed to be either quite good contrary to the general review consensus or games that just didn’t sell very well. First up in this feature of games that might have gave you the slip is 007 Blood Stone, Activision’s latest James Bond adventure.

I thought Blood Stone was underated myself too! Not the best game, but still an enjoyable action title. Good to see you bringing this to the attention of others.

sinncross5596d ago

Hows the online? thinking of picking the game up in a week or 2.

LightSamus5596d ago

I've only played a small bit of the online and it's playable but frustrating. It takes a lot of bullets to drop and enemy and the melee can be a bit frustrating. Definitely better as a single-player game.

tigertron5596d ago

The online is tacked on but I did have fun with it.

The game overall isn't as good as EON, and it should have been, but its still a pretty good and recommended for Bond fans, or those who just enjoyed watching the last two Bond films.

Thrungus5596d ago

Brilliant article! Love the feature your going for, can't wait for more.

Been thinking about getting this game when the price drops. It seems a decent game but just not worth the full price.
The other 007 game that came out a year or two ago is very cheap now, around £8 used, so I can see this one dropping very low in price soon.

bumnut5596d ago

This game is well worth a try and is pretty cheap now.

Be warned though, you will finish it within 6 hours

Rubberlegs5596d ago

Its fun a game but it has little replay value. Takes about 5-6hrs to complete and not really worth playing through a second time unless you really want to go after some achievements you missed.

Yeah, the Microsoft deal has DEFINITELY worked out for everyone.

Can this mother fucker just get lost already

PRIMORDUS135d ago

He belongs in here ⚰️, hopefully sooner than later.

MrDead135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

Kotick Made $155 million from MS in the buyout, the little b*tch needs to stop whining. Thanks to this Microslop deal and massive industry consolidation thousands upon thousands of devs and other workers lost their livelihoods. This greedy piggie pervert needs shut up and f-off.

Microsoft needs to listen or risk irreparable harm to Call of Duty

Windows Central: "The money may keep rolling in, but Microsoft is the custodian of one of the biggest selling video game series in history. If something doesn't change, I fear we'll reach a breaking point and irreparable damage will have been done."

Because ms is so good at managing studios, surely they will get it right

:P

franwex186d ago

In my view, they should probably merge MP with Warzone and essentially make it free to play like Halo Infinite. The campaign/zombies mode can be $30 yearly DLC. I know this would be insanity as most COD players essentially pay the full price of the game simply for the MP. However-with a shrinking player base they may have to consider it. Making it free would bring in a ton of players.

Profchaos186d ago

To late MW3 should have been a lesson but here we are two years later with a steaming pile a shite called blops7

bsingle40186d ago

Nothing lasts forever, eventually something will come along to make people forget about COD

Halo killer once arrived and technically call of duty killer also arrived, its name is Fortnite

dveio186d ago

Call of Duty was riding the revenue horse and charts for ~20 years. Whether undeserved or deserved.

But I endorse everyone to remind you that Microsoft could have decided differently when they took it over.

The money was certainly there, and they could have taken their time revamping the franchise:

Current-gen tech, manageable microtransactions, not imitating Fortnite and returning to core values of the franchise's origin.

They didn't.

Let's see next year. Hopefully without the then 13 years old PS4 and One hardware.

blacktiger185d ago

you need to stop saying "let see next year"
