10 Infuriating Video Game Cliffhangers You Didn't Realise Have Answers

9. Who's Pulling The Strings? - James Bond 007: Blood Stone

As sad as it was to watch Daniel Craig's tenure as James Bond come to a close, the same cannot be said about his video game adaptations. The GoldenEye remake didn't come close to matching its predecessor and 007 Legends might be the worst game ever based on Ian Fleming's creation.

Having said that, James Bond 007: Blood Stone was pretty decent. Because of the amazing soundtrack, well-developed characters and creative visuals, it did the franchise proud.

And like any Bond adaptation, Blood Stone has its fair share of plot twists. In the third act, the iconic British spy discovers his partner, Nicole Hunter, is a double-agent. When Bond confronts her, she reveals she works for a mysterious figure who leads a global terrorist organisation.

Before Nicole can give away her boss' identity, she's shot dead by a drone.

This story would've continued in the sequel, 007: Risico, but was cancelled after Blood Stone didn't reach its sales criteria. In Risico, it would've been unveiled that Nicole's secret benefactor was Bond's arch-nemesis and SPECTRE commander, Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

However, most players already figured it out before this was revealed since... well, who else was it going to be? Oddjob?
