Review: Quantum of Solace (Xbox 360)

Quantum of Solace will inevitably be compared to GoldenEye like all other Bond games have been and will be.  I believe it is a fair comparison to make.  GoldenEye was an inspired experience all the way around and since then we haven’t seen another Bond game come even close.  I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Quantum of Solace isn’t on that level, but it is a good first effort by a worthy developer.

The game’s plot revolves around both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.  The game begins with Bond capturing Mr. White and bringing him in for interrogation.  In no time, Mr. White escapes because of an act of betrayal and Bond is sent around the world trying to figure the entire mess out using story lines from Casino Royale along with Quantum of Solace with a few story additions for added gameplay.  The voice acting, as expected, is great.  With Daniel Craig, Judi Dench, and most of the cast of both films, it’s pretty difficult to screw this part up.
