The general storyline isn't bad by Bond movie standards, even if there's a slightly odd feeling that it begins with one evil plot and villain, then expands outwards just to beef up the running time. It's not quite a dud, but it's more Octopussy in quality than You Only Live Twice. Instead, Blood Stone is a half-decent action-er spoilt by some fairly major flaws. The fact that it fills the gap left by the postponement of the 23rd Bond film could have been the icing on the 007 cake. A totally original Bond game, scripted by a Hollywood screenwriter, voiced by Daniel Craig and Judi Dench, starring a digitised Joss Stone and developed by the team behind The Club and Project Gotham Racing, Blood Stone should have been a blinder. (Pocket-lint) - This is what you call a missed opportunity.
