Yeah, I could actually see them taking over the license in 2014. Very possible.
My number 2 choice would have to be 2k Games (Take Two interactive). I enjoy most of their games.
Also add Edios to the list for number 3. They make some great stuff
People who should NOT get it.
Activison: Something tells me they'll want it back, but EON knows how Bond has been handled. I would be surprised if they got it back.
Sega: They've proved with many Marvel games that they do not care about movie properties.
EA: They don't want it, so they shouldn't have it.
well my dream is ubisoft actually with a bond game each year like Assassin's creed .. I think they have good developers also ..
Or if it back to EA games Im happy also .. but for sure no no no Activision any more .. please EON ..
QoS was a very fast produced alongside activision wrestling the control from EA. Unless though a company is already working on a bond game to shop around for activison I doubt it will be dropped. Activison has said that they take a loss on 007 games but i think the goldeneye forumla must have worked as technically we are getting the third game with that engine now. hopefully poor sales of legends will lead to them rethinking the format again.
Jason Statham is a bit much, if that then Connery's bond would have been doing kung fu on the baddies.
=))
Ubisoft. Assassin's Creed 3 will probably be game of the year, and Watch Dogs looks cool too.
Ubisoft made the Assassin's Creed games (probably my favourite games of all time), Splinter Cell, and the Ghost Recon games. And Rockstar have made GTA, the Red Dead games, LA Noire and now Max Payne 3.
So I think Ubisoft or Rockstar, or maybe even EA again would be better choices.
I know Rockstar will never do it. Ubisoft though, I could see it happening.
In 2014 (or whenever the rights expire) one of these will happen.
The rights will stay with Activision
They will go to Ubisoft
OR, and I just had this thought, is that EON do what Batman does and not commit to a publisher and take it one game at a time. For example, Batman Begins was by EA, Arkham Asylum was by Edios, and Arkham City was by WB Interactive (so they took care of it themselves). It might not be the best option, but it is an option. And let's not forget that MGM does have a game divison
i think its better now hitmans back as it fills in the cracks that bond devs leave.
If anything prehaps activision wish to finish there run with the RAVEN bond game?
Gosh. I hated that name. I hope that if there actually is a game, they get a better title.
Would be nice but as Rockstar loves Sandbox games maybe Bond turn into one of them. Would be cool.
WB only took this long to publish themselves because they have only recently built up their games division. All DC games are published by WB Interactive now.
No, Raven Studios is/was? the developer. It isn't the name of the game.
oooh. :-S
I agree. activision is all corporate greed , they care only about money, but then again what video game company doesnt these days..video games in general suck now. they're all casual, dumbed down and require no skill or thinking.
007 LEGENDs looks retarded if you ask me.
the possibilities with the bond franchise are endless. activision is hardly using any real creativity or originality with the bond license.
its quite ashame GE XBL never was released
Speaking of the Source mods, Counter-Strike is coming to XBLA and PSN for $15 in August. So excited.
that said themost bond like game of the series i think ive played was bond on the game boy.
hopefuly if we all shun the legen ds game we will be back with a new development cycle, new engine new game format closer to bloodstone and emulating hitman/deus ex.
Granted, we have had a lot of GE releases and renditions, but I wouldn't mind getting an HD version of the original.
Time shall tell for 007 Legends. I really want it to be good, but I doubt I purchase it upon release until I hear reviews and see gameplay. I really wasted my money picking up GE Reloaded; the last excellent 007 game I played was QoS.
ive said before the goldeneye engine inferior to the qos one. so why would they continue using it. the game only sold well and over shadowed bloodstone because of the name in 2010. gamespot gave bs a 7.5 and goldeneye 8? anyway the editorial team ended up killing bloodstone in the podcasts outside of the review. goldeneyes dam mission is rather good but then again it was the demo, when we got into the main chunk of the game it became rather rubbish. the writting made little to no sense, im not even sure ge 2010/2011 will be connected to legends due to those featuring the classic actors.
I'm not here for goldneye, im hear for discussing proper progression of the gaming franchise. remakes of goldeneye or attempts to sell inferior games, ie wii engine disguised as third gen consoles is a joke. now we have dlc for that gasme being sold to us as a full experiance.
i really couldnt be bothered for an hd release of goldeneye 64, no voice actors and skewed face mapping onto blocky headed character models is something i can do without.
the last quality bond game was bloodstone i think.
