The production values – international locations, big theme tune (by Joss Stone, also on hand to voice the love interest), a story by Bond screenwriter Bruce Feirstein – suggest that someone's taking their responsibility to the franchise seriously. Craig and Judi Dench are on hand to voice Bond and M respectively. The game features Daniel Craig's back-to-basics violent Bond, and puts the focus on gritty realism rather than jetpacks and cars that turn into submarines. On the face of it – and at an early preview session – things looked good. And that's probably the last time "jollies" will ever apply to this title. In the same week that nostalgia buffs finally get their hands on the Wii (and DS) revamp of GoldenEye – the first-person shooter that pretty much started it all – the rest of the gaming world has to rely on Blood Stone for their Bond-related jollies.
