• Quantum of Solace

With all the building hype, let's have a thread about the new James Bond 007 game, Quantum of Solace.
I've played the short PC Demo, and it's definitely a solid James Bond title with some genre-defining features, most notably, the cover system which makes you feel more like a 00 Agent.

Platforms: All
Launch Date: November 4, 2008
ESRB: T (Teen) – Violence, Some Blood
Game Type: First Person Shooter/Action
Players: 1-4
Developer: Beenox
Publisher: Activision

Quantum of Solace is the first James Bond game this generation, and will be based on the films Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. The game is powered by the Call of Duty 4 engine, and is developed by Beenox who also worked the PC version. Most of the game play will be in a first-person fashion with the ability to switch to a third-person view during cover system or quick time events.

The Wii version of the game will have four players split-screen local multiplayer, exclusive to the system, in addition to the online multiplayer. With this version, you will be able to create your own character. Players may choose to use the unique Wii Remote and Nunchuk control scheme to seamlessly target and engage their enemies or they can leverage the Wii Zapper to truly step into the shoes of James Bond.
