007: Quantum of Solace is a 2008 shooter video game published by Activision. Based on the James Bond films Casino Royale (2006) and Quantum of Solace (2008), it was developed by Treyarch for PlayStation 3 (PS3) and Xbox 360 and by Beenox for Microsoft Windows and Wii, and is mostly played as a first-person shooter, with occasional switches to third-person
Eurocom developed a similar version for the PlayStation 2, played solely as a third-person shooter, while Vicarious Visions developed an entirely different version for the Nintendo DS, which is also played from a third-person perspective.
Quantum of Solace is played as a shooter game across all platforms, with players taking on the role of James Bond in each version. The PS2 version is played solely from a third-person perspective. Health is automatically regenerated when not taking damage.
The PS2 version excludes the missions set at the Miami airport, on the train, and in Venice. It adds a new mission set in the docks, and all levels feature slightly different designs.
Across all platforms, 007: Quantum of Solace received "mixed or average reviews" according to Metacritic. The gameplay was a source of criticism, generally viewed as repetitive and lacking in variety. Seth Schiesel of The New York Times was critical of the excessive shooting gameplay and lack of driving levels.
Despite the criticism, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences nominated Quantum of Solace for "Outstanding Achievement in Adapted Story" during the 12th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards
