WARNING THE FOLLOWING IS PURE OPINION AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN 100% SERIOUSLY, ALSO YOU SHOULDN’T TURN AROUND, AS I AM SO NOT STEALING YOUR CANDY, NO LOOK AWAY, PLEASE.
The name’s MH, The Joel MH, so what is the worst Bond film?
There have been many many bond films, some poorer than others, but two films have the reputation for being the worst, Die Another Day and Quantum of Solace. So which is worst… it’s Die Another Day, but since that doesn’t have a game, let’s go with Quantum of Solace.
Quantum of Solace is a First Person shooter made by a little company known as Treyarch. I mean whose heard of them, am I right, I mean what the fuck is Call of Duty Black Ops.
In all seriousness, this game is what I like to call, a, Call of Bond game, where it controls for the most part like Call of Duty. The differences are that you carry three guns rather than two with Bond’s signature Walther unswappable. As well as the ability to hack certain doors and machines. The game even includes Intel in the form of random cellphones scattered through the levels as well as a cover feature that shifts you into a third person perspective and a melee attack that shifts to QTE’s to silently take out the enemy.
Okay I’m going to back track here but I need to address the elephant in the room, Hi Andy
Ok, seriously, how can I say Die Another Day is worse when Quantum of Solace was responsible for nearly sinking MGM, well here’s five things wrong with Die Another Day:
1. Bond is ridiculously indestructible, HE OUTRAN A SPACE LASER AND SURVIVED A TIDAL WAVE EFFORTLESSLY!
2. Madonna sings the theme and she even gets a role in this. She already ruined this film with the WORST theme song ever and then this.
3. Halle Berry you can be a great actress, but really, really.
4. Main villian invents Twilight face before Twilight’s even been written.
5. Bond couldn’t tell his gun was lighter after Frost removed the bullets.
I could go on.
Now where was I, oh yes the game. The game starts off where Casino Royale left off with Bond on White’s estate which is now filled to the brim with armed guards, that didn’t happen in the movie. The game continues on through the plot of Quantum of Solace through 4 levels until Bond goes into a flashback, what, wait a minute, that’s the chase scene from Casino Royale.
Wait a minute the next level is from Casino Royale as well, well how many of the levels are Casino Royale?
9, You’ve got to be kidding me, well how many levels are there after Casino Royale stages, well exactly…. 1. Not kidding most of the game ‘Quantum of Solace’ is in fact Casino Royale. Why? Well the problem is that Quantum was such a bad movie that it didn’t have a lot to make levels on. Though 8 Casino levels if you don’t count the level ‘Casino Poison’, a level where you stagger around trying to get to the car whilst avoiding traffic, and what is up with these drivers, what are they driven by all the women he’s left, which is, calculate from the 22 films… 52 women, that’s a lot of pissed chicks, though a few are dead.
Boss battles suffer from QTE’s for the most part, except for the final Casino Royale boss where you kill with a one shot kill with a nail gun and the final boss himself, who really takes a couple of shots to take down at his obvious weak points, I mean environmental objects. But then again Call of Duty has never really mastered the art of the boss, with the exception of the final boss of Modern Warfare 3.
Another problem the game has is that despite being the official movie game, a lot of scenes have been removed, all we get of the car crash scene is an audio track for example, this is the OFFICIAL game, and you say you can’t get the clips, what the hell?
So I know what you’re thinking it’s a bad game right, well…. no actually, I can’t believe I’m saying this, but it’s a good movie game, it’s not spectacular, but it’s not terrible, the casino royale levels are the real stars of this game with the Quantum levels being rather stale but then again so was the goddamn movie. I’m TheJoelMH, now if you excuse me I’ve got a midget assassin to lock in a trunk.
