Quantum of Solace:Wii Review

Overview- The second newest installment (as of now) in the James Bond movie series in game form. The game lets you put Bond's shooting skills to the test, and encompasses the action of the movie in it as well.

Review- The Quantum of Solace video game for the Wii is a very well made one, through and through. I spent countless hours sitting in my basement playing level after level of multiplayer battles. However, as always, I will start with the single player mode. The story line is as action packed as you would expect from 007, and each mission reveals new places to venture to in the storyline. The story is packed with action, usually at the least expected moments. From car races to shootouts, this is a game that will hold you until its completion, and lure in you to play again on a harder difficulty, or from a different perspective. What I mean by this is that, in Bond games and games of the like, there is an obvious choice between being a silent assassin or a rush-in and kill 'em badass type. You can be a mix of the both, depending on the situation, but the flexibility is always a nice thing to have. The tutorials aren't obvious, as they are mixed into a starter mission that feels so long it could be an arcade game of some sort. Then when you gasp for breath from the action, the logo appears on the screen, and your revved up for more. The multiplayer action in the game is great as well. Teams are divided into 4 on 4 games at maximum, sometimes less. There are a couple of different game modes, like capture the flag or defend the base type things , and some more Bond-based games like Bond Versus and Golden Gun, but team matches are always the best. You have the choice of MI6 or The Organization. Each has seperate classes with different loadouts unique to each class. However, sadly, custom loadouts are not offered. Each class has a complimentary one on the opposing side, like The 00 Agent on MI6 is counterpart to the Mastermind, and the Assassin counterpart to the Marksman. Even with very limited weapon, character, and arena choice, this game is a great and entertaining game to play without the intensity of Call Of Duty and more mature rated games.
