James Bond Racing Title Outed At Bizarre Creations?
Posted 4/23/10 11:30 am ET by Brian Warmoth in News
Bizarre Creations has a predilection for racing games, and they've already moved into combat/action racing for their new title "Blur." The studio had previously been mentioned in connection with a James Bond driving game, though, and a British retail listing has now predicted that a game called "James Bond: Bloodstone" will be available at some point in the future.
The media megastore HMV posted a listing for "Bloodstone" on the PlayStation 3, according to a screen cap from their website posted by Gamestop. Versions for the Xbox 360 and Wii were reportedly also found there under the category "driving racing games coming soon."
This leak, posting mishap or whatever it is could be a little messy to speculate about, due mostly to the state of the James Bond franchise at MGM right now. The series is currently frozen, with no immediate Bond movie officially in the works. If that status has affected whatever game might have been in development, this could have just been an issue of an outdated entry slipping through the cracks and into a database where it automatically became live in HMV's catalog. However, it's equally possible that "Bloodstone" moved ahead untouched and we'll be hearing more after "Blur" launches on May 25.
