You have to feel a bit sorry for Bizarre Creations and the timing of Blood Stone: 007's release. As you can guess from the title Blood Stone puts you in the shoes of super spy James Bond but just as this game comes out, so does Nintendo's reworking of...

Overall Blood Stone gets the Bond style right but the game is short, and repetitive, and doesn’t measure up against shooters available right now...

James Bond desperately needs an intervention, and I'm not just talking about his predilection for dry martinis, fast cars, and even faster women. Sure, those old habits all make a return in James Bond 007: Blood Stone, but the British super-spy's most...

Like a great Bond movie, James Bond 007: Blood Stone jumps headfirst into a spectacular action scene before the opening credits even roll. Going from silently dropping enemies on a ritzy yacht right into a pair of harrowing chase scenes--first by boat...
![Good](/static/images/reviews-good.png)
Solid shooting mechanics and slick melee combat, Driving sections are a blast, Great production values, Globetrotting story allows for lots of environmental variety.

Gets off to a very slow start after the prologue, Throwaway multiplayer, Gadget sections are simply filler.
![Bottom line](/static/images/reviews-bottomline.png)
Stylish combat and white-knuckle driving make this an enjoyable James Bond adventure, despite some pacing issues...

Blood Stone is not a bad game: it's just a painfully average one. There aren't any majorly broken elements to it, but just because this Stone is relatively polished, doesn't make it a gem. There really isn't anything at all remarkable about it, and eve...
