007 - Quantum of Solace

James Bond used to take his Martinis shaken, not stirred. Since Daniel Craig took on the role of the world's greatest secret agent, we're not entirely sure he isn't a little of both. So, with the release of Quantum of Solace, it's time to step into the shoes of a more grizzled Bond. As well as delving into the action of Quantum of Solace, the game picks up Casino Royale, too. It's the first next-gen Bond game, why not go big? Treyarch, the developer behind Call of Duty: World at War, has taken charge of development. It has used the Call of Duty 4 game engine - a fine place to start. There's a key difference, however. The game will dip in and out of the first-person viewpoint.

When you're in the thick of it and bullets are whizzing past your ears, you'll be able to dip into first-person mode, but you'll have a third-person point of view at your disposal so you won't have to miss out on Daniel Craig's rugged good looks. Following the two films, the action swings from stealthy, secret agent-type work to all-out, balls-to-the-wall blockbuster combat. You'll get to indulge in that with your mates, too, thanks to the option for up to 12 players to go head-to-head online. Who says being the world's greatest secret agent has to be a solo activity?
