James Bond game set for Comic Con

MI6 agent James Bond is to make an appearance at San Diego's July 21-24 Comic-Con, with Activision touting a new 007 game for the event.

That could well take the form of a new entry to the GoldenEye series which, in 1997, was a hugely successful entry to the now-dominant first person shooter genre.

While it then starred Pierce Brosnan, it was Daniel Craig who took center stage in the Wii's 2010 remake.

So one possibility is that the new 007 title is GoldenEye Reloaded, supported by various web domain registrations that cropped up late June.

Also present at Comic Con will be Activision's Prototype 2, Spider-Man: Edge of Time and X-Men Destiny, along with Soulcalibur V, Voltron, and a Mass Effect movie panel.
