Sounding good so far. Wonder how many characters we'll get from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.

I'm very very excited! I'll be at uni when it comes out, but I think I'll get as few of the lads from halls to chip in for a console and I can play it until my hands go numb!!!

Honestly, I'm not expecting quality. Sadly, it's a movie tie in, and those almost always end up rushed and buggy because they never break the release date...

Atleast we know they've been working on it for a while, since 2007 I believe.

I'm with you, we've always got GoldenEye 007 at least. I'm hoping for the best but expecting a downer. This does sound good so far, however. Going into the game this way I can only be pleasantly surprised.

Activision has mentioned that they are going to focus more on Bond in ways that EA never did so I guess we'll finally see how true that turns out to be.

To be fair they've been working on this game for 2 years. It will have no less dev time than Call of Duty 4 and that game was not only the best-selling game of 2007 but was also lauded as the game of the year by man publications. (I'm not trying to imply that QoS will be either the best-selling of 2008 or GOTY material) Additionally, as QoS uses a modified Call of Duty 4 engine, a lot of the work was already done.
