10 Times Video Games WASTED Big Actors

9. Daniel Craig - Quantum Of Solace

The James Bond games have a weird relationship with the current leading man of the time.

Either they seem to go all the way in and portray the super spay as is at the current era, or they almost seem to go off and do whatever they want, with Agent Under Fire looking like a cheap parody.

Just look at fake Pierce Brosnan for example, that face is just awful and looks a decade apart from his portrayal in Nightfire. At least with the next Bond we were treated to the actual actor.

When it came to the Activision era of Bond games, they had the money and even got Craig’s full likeness, but seemingly wasted it for a more Call of Bond shoot 'em up. Not only that, but the character model looked bored to be there whenever we got a glimpse of Craig’s face. The fact that Quantum was actually two games stitched together didn’t help much either.

Craig would get some redemption in Bloodstone, but Activision wasted one of the best Bonds here.
