The Pros:Includes voice acting from 007 actors Judi Dench and Daniel Craig as well as Joss Stone (as Bond's latest lady friend Nicole Hunter). Great vehicle chase portions. Some great visual moments - especially in the vehicle portions.

The Cons:Lots of boring repetitive gameplay. Very little genuinely 007 about the game - no signature Bond gadgets, villains, etc.. Under-developed gunplay - generic aim-assist / exploding barrel mechanics.
