    I was disoppinted with Blood Stone to be onested with you. Activision fails again to have a game which blows me away with it. The campaign was okay in Blood Stone and the multiplayer is horrible in my oppion. Campaign 6/10 Multiplayer 4/10 Blood Stone 5.5/10

    Features: 5/10 - 'Online multiplayer' is rather hideous: suffers from lag issues, is repetitive and poorly executed. 'Story Mode' lasts roughly 5-6 hours - quite short.

    Overall: 5 / 10 - Credit to Activision for taking chances with a new gameplay style and original storyline but the 'finished' (using that word loosely) product feels under-developed, budgeted and sadly un-Bond-like. Those who want a richer Bond experience should stay with 007: Quantum of Solace & Goldeneye: Reloaded (arguably).    … Expand

The story-line is strong, reminded me of old films, yet could have been expanded on for longer game play. The fact that Commander Bond is a spy and not necessarily a military character the third person perspective paints a wonderful picture for the viewer, the cinematics transition so well with the "3PS" a fun adventure from start to finish. This is the closest I have seen a game to fulfilling my virtual Bond fix, I will not be trading this one in!… Expand

    All gameplay mechanics aside if you want to run around as Daniel Craig and beat some pulp into enemies and experience some intense car sequences then pick this up. Perfect rental. Yes the graphics go from great to surprisingly gross and the cutscenes need more polish but if you are a 007 fan and especially a fan of the last two Bond outings then this is a lot of fun.

I think this is the most fun I've had with a 007 game since Goldeneye and many like to argue that Quantum of Solace was better, but I say 'no', due to the short, however action packed James Bond feeling I get from the game was splendid.

My only major complaint is that there wasn't enough from the singleplayer experience and the multiplayer needed touch up, but despite all that, a not so bad game. On one more final note, the up coming James Bond game based on the up coming 2012 movie had leaked animations and gameplay footage (being developed by Raven Software, who are also working on MW3), and everything from the animations and gameplay footage looked completely identical to Blood Stone, so my biggest hopes is getting a better, polished Blood Stone experience, and with a few touch ups and more indulging experience, the game will be an instant success.… Expand

Blood Stone certainly does not hit the heights of GoldenEye, but it does have a very atmospheric James Bond experience. This is helped by the game design I like it when 007 games look to emulate the feel of the movies by incorporating items such as a credits sequence, a theme song, Bond "moments" and real actors to do the voiceover. Daniel Craig and Dame Judi Dench really elevate the game with their voiceover work. Joss Stone is a welcome addition to the Bond universe being both sexy and talented. The title sequence closely emulates the new design direction of the Daniel Craig era and is a very good standard for a videogame.

    The 3rd-person shooting is fairly formulaic. However, Bond can action some awesome takedowns (which reminded me closely of The Bourne Conspiracy) and these give you "Focus Aims" which allow you to dispatch enemies quickly with a single headshot. The game is fairly easy to complete anyway so these are not massively useful, but do help to make you feel like James Bond in that you can wade through enemies quickly as he might do in the movies. You can make use of scenery to help dispatch enemies for example, shooting a lift so that it falls and kills the occupants. The usual explosive barrels make their 974th appearance in a videogame since Doom!

    The story interested me. I enjoyed the ride. Of course, don't expect a story as complex as those in recent movies. But it's enough to keep you playing until the end. Bond visits some very interesting locations around the world in this mission.

    The driving sections of the game were excellent. You will drive a car and a boat at different points in the story and the handling felt good. The speed of these sections was also good. They felt exciting and probably the best realised driving sections in any James Bond game, including 007 Racing!

    The multiplayer is the game's weakest offering. Like many modern games, publishers and developers seem to believe that a multiplayer option is a desirable section to the majority of gamers. I don't believe this is the case. I would much rather that developers spent the time enhancing and extending the single-player experience. Let GoldenEye do the multiplayer experience, Blood Stone is strongest in the single-player experience.

    The game is not long, and it does have its limitations. However, if you are looking for a game to perhaps play between longer AAA titles and you are just looking to have some fun for a few hours then Blood Stone is a game I would certainly recommend. I enjoyed the ride with James Bond. Roger Moore would certainly raise an eyebrow at that!    … Expand

    Lukewarm mechanics all around, linear and mostly uninspiring level design, last-gen graphics, broken AI, painful-to-watch cutscenes, and a limp plot make a promising-sounding game come out feeling half-baked. Getting through the game felt like a chore, and there was no payoff, in the end.

    Cons: Characters Look Distorted In The Cutscenes, Doesn’t Take Very Much Time To Beat The Game, Contains Unclear Plot

    The plot begins with a sort of introduction mission, Bond has to stop an international terrorist from bombing a G-20 Summit at the Acropolis in Athens. The next day, 007 is assigned to find the missing professor, Malcolm Tedworth. MI6 had previously received a tip and was able to track the professor’s cell phone to Istanbul. Bond has to venture down into catacombs, where players have to fight off hordes of guards. He finds Tedworth, but is too late to stop him from being shot after he was interrogated. Bond chases Tedworth’s killer, a man called Bernin, throughout Istanbul using his Aston Martin DB5. Bond manages to stop Bernin, and kills him after he reveals a single name, Stefan Pomerov. He then travels to Monaco after learning that Pomerov will be at one his casinos there. He meets his contact, a rich jewelry designer named Nicole Hunter. The pair sneak into the casino, and Bond recovers the camera that filmed Tedworth’s interrogation and a pile of documents, which reveal that the professor was trying to find a cure to certain biological weapons. James and Nicole narrowly escape the casino in Nicole’s supercar.
    007’s boss, known as M, tells him that the documents he found had to do with a chemical refinery owned by Pomerov in Siberia. Hunter and Bond once again set off to explore the refinery, where they find out that Pomerov is actually manufacturing bio-weapons and toxins. Bond triggers a meltdown within the facility and he once again barely escapes with Hunter, this time in an Aston Martin DBS V12. Nicole and James realize Pomerov is escaping with a train full of deadly chemicals. The duo pursue him, and then have to change vehicles as Pomerov takes off in a ekranoplan. Bond saves the day by shooting an emergency exit on the ekranoplan, which sucks Pomerov out, forcing him to fall to his death into a freezing Siberian river. The bio-weapons are secured by MI6. Nicole and James part ways, as Bond has realized the tip about the weapons was set up by someone who wanted Pomerov killed. James discovers another lead, this time he travels to Bangkok to meet a contact who has intel on a man named Rak, a criminal who operates in Thailand. The contact is sniped before Bond hears anything of real value, and 007 pursues the assassin until the killer crashes the dump truck he was driving into a bridge. Bond finds an old ally, who tells him where Rak’s hideout is, however the “ally” alerts Rak and Bond is captured at the hideout. Bond is tortured in Burma, but quickly escapes to pursue Rak. He fights Rak, and eventually kills him because 007 has figured out who the mastermind behind the whole kidnapping is. You’ll have to play “James Bond 007: Blood Stone” to figure out who’s to blame.
    I recently received the game for the Xbox 360 during this Christmas. My mom purchased the game (used) from GameStop for $14.99. I had previously rented the game from Family Video for two days, and I enjoyed playing it, so I added it to my Christmas list. “Blood Stone” was my first Bond game, and my first third-person shooter video game. I’ve seen quite a few 007 movies, from “Goldeneye” to “Spectre”. I’m addicted to the Daniel Craig movies, so I figured this game would be a hit for me. Overall, I’d have to give this game a 7/10. I love the fact that there are cutscenes between important events in the game, it really helped me to understand what was going on. Unfortunately, for some reason the characters seem to look faintly distorted in the cutscenes, when a character is talking, their mouth’s movements doesn’t quite match what they’re saying. Another thing I dislike about this game is the fact that the plot is very confusing, unless you’ve already read a review of the game or a summary of the plot. “James Bond 007: Blood Stone” also doesn’t take that much time to beat, which is disappointing. The game seems short for the complexity of the plot. As I mentioned before, I had already rented this game, and I had played up to the last Siberia mission. It only took me a few days with a couple hours of play each day to get to the last mission. A note- the controls are your basic shooter controls, however pressing the down arrow on the D-pad will result in Bond’s phone being brought out, which tells you where to go and also gives you extra information about enemy vehicles, weapons, and etc. The car chases in the game are awesome! Bond’s Aston Martins are certainly fun to drive and provide an extra exhilarating element to this video game.    … Expand

    007 Bloodstone sends the world's most famous agent, James Bond into a mission not based on any previously released film tie-in, a storyline created by the designers.

    The game features stunning world environments, vehicles exploding, collapsing freeways, though the character models are lacking in texture, but not enough to distract you from the action. The single player campaign sends    007 Bloodstone sends the world's most famous agent, James Bond into a mission not based on any previously released film tie-in, a storyline created by the designers.

    The game features stunning world environments, vehicles exploding, collapsing freeways, though the character models are lacking in texture, but not enough to distract you from the action.

    The single player campaign sends you to Athens, Istanbul, and many more, beginning with a speedboat chase around the Greek harbour, leading onto a car chase around Athens, then you get the opening credits. But after the credits the pacing of the action slows down and there are not so many exciting scenes until later in the story, with some levels dragging on too long, making the game feel dull in some areas.

    The gameplay of the game requires the use of stealth tactics to eliminate guards to reach the objectives within the missions. The player can look around corners and wait for a passing guard to come you, where the player is able to use a takedown to eliminate him without alerting surrounding guards. Each time a takedown is used the player is awarded a focus kill, which is a one-hit kill, the player can accumulate up to 3 focus kills to eliminate 3 guards in quick succession, making game feel awarding to the player who uses stealth tactics instead of going in guns blazing. The player is always equipped with a standard PP09, but is able to pick up SMG's, assault rifles, shotguns and sniper rifles, but can only carry 1 of these weapons at a time.

    The takedown animations are exciting to watch, and uses the environment to enhance the animation.
    Some missions involve car chases, chasing enemy targets through cities, driving over a frozen lake and avoiding obstacles thrown into your path. The controls can take a while to get used to as using the brake too much will make you stop and you may lose your target.

    When not using your weapons, you have use of a smartphone which you can use to deactivate security cameras, locate and download intel, and decrypting codes.

    The AI can be smart, especially on the higher difficulties, they will use cover, change positions, flank your position, communicate with each other, and they will focus on your last known position.

    The multiplayer modes include the standard team deathmatch, objective which involves completing a series of objectives (unlocking doors, activating terminals) while the enemy try to stop you, and then you have last man standing, eliminating all of the other team before they kill yours. The multiplayer only features two environments from the single player, split into six separate levels.

    Though lacking in levels and modes, the multiplayer rewards the player with numerous medals for weapon kills, matches played, and you gain expericence unlocking better weapons, silver and gold variants.

    Overall, the game features an enjoyable campaign when the story progresses further in the game, memorable action sequences, smart AI, though lacking in character model details, and lack of multiplayer modes, this is a good addition to the James Bond franchise.    … Expand

    não vou negar que foi um bom jogo, você realmente se sente um espião jogando esse jogo, tem senas muito legais. só não dei uma nota mais alta por um motivo. ele não da pra jogar de 2 jogadores como os antigos 007.

    James Bond 007: Blood Stone is not a bad game in the 007 series. Typical action from 3 persons with elements of racing. Mediocre gameplay with stupid opponents. Elements with chases look good, Bizarre Creations were able to make racing games. Class B game for 4-5 hours. You can only recommend 007 franchise fans.

    This is a really fun James Bond adventure! It has the exact right tone for a Daniel Craig bond adventure and the gameplay's pretty good too! The story was pretty weak though and it's disappointing that we'll never get a continuation to that cliffhanger.

    It's such a shame Blood Stone is so average and lacking impact because it does do some things right.

    Blood Stone is definitely not one of 007's best missions.

    This game truly feels like a Bond game. Moreover, it makes you believe you are playing the legendary James Bond and few other Bond games achieve this. For this reason, I whole-heartedly recommend it to fans of the James Bond franchise. However, those looking for a high-quality game should exercise caution.
