Another train sequence? They had one in QoS!

and if i'm not mistaken there will be one on Goldeneye what is it with Activision and Trains.

There was a train level in the original Goldeneye so it has nothing to do with Activision. The train sequence in QoS sucked anyway and this sounds way cooler. This game is definitely shaping up to be a something special. I think we can already be sure it will be a more entertaining experience than QoS The Game.

This sounds great. Blood Stone is sounding way better than GoldenEye 2010. :tup:

http://xbox360.ign.c.../1115549p1.html IGN was also very impressed.

If this game does really well, we could definitely be up for a sequel in 2012!

From all the buzz about it and the articles -I know this is premature- maybe we have a Goldeneye-level game.

My interest has definitely shifted on the project. I'm now anticipating it with usual levels of hopefulness.

I mean, EON is by far and away my favourite non-GoldenEye Bond game. The idea that this is very much a spiritual successor, unoriginal branding or not, intrigues me.

BRILLIANT! Bond looks a little rough in some shots. I'm sure the graphics will be touched up, though! :)



That bloody Bond theme is getting tiresome...

I thought Craig looked much better than what we saw in July, much less....orange. I absolutely love the costuming and the camera angles are stunning. The DB5 looked gorgeous, as did the streets of Istanbul. Brilliant stuff. I really hope that Bizarre gets to create another original adventure after this one. I'd hate to see the next game be a tie in.

Agreed. What we needed was original stories, and it's a shame the spiritual successor to Everything or Nothing took so long to arrive. But I'm glad it's nearly here. This trailer just confirms my excitement.

Very nicely cinematic! Now, the DB5 racing around Istanbul in a modern context is exactly the kind of refreshing of the Bond brand I was hoping to see. Doesn't at all feel like a QOS-film clone anymore. Plot still sounds rather generic, but hey, it's a video game.

And I agree, that version of the Bond theme is getting a tad tired. We're about due for a new "standard" mix to be done.

I'm thinking it will wind up like every other modern day shooter, fun for the 6-7 hours it lasts but no lasting appeal.

High Moon is porting the PC version , and by looking to Istanbul trailer its look similar to The Bourne Conspiracy .

This is shaping up to be one fantastic looking game. I think my excitement for this game has just surpassed that of "GE". However, I might not be saying that if and when we get a "Goldeneye - Dubai" trailer. ;)

I'm much more impressed by that trailer than I was by the previous footage. Looks fun.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before - but with the 'briefing' in the new trailer, does anyone else get the feeling that Istanbul/Turkey might be our first location post Athens/Greece? It certainly seems like the sort of briefing that would open a movie and set the game as a whole up.

That scene with the tunnel-boring machine looks fantastic. I also love that screenshot with the frozen battleship. It's only a minor thing and it'll probably be visible for all of two seconds as you blast past it ... but that doesn't stop it from giving the shot some atmosphere. It's far better than just having another rocky outcrop.

There is much about this whole project that feels so distinctly Bond. I'm genuinely excited, perhaps more than I would be for a film.

Ah, the temperature is rising again. I love the new screenshots and I also believe that Bloodstone will be better than QoS despite the fact that they're both based on the same gameplay machine.
