Sorry if someone else has already picked up on this, but I just noticed it today.
In the GoldenEye video game (the newer one, i.e. Reloaded or the original Wii version), in the final mission, when you have the first QTE fight with Trevelyan after dodging past the solar ray, there is a fire axe on the wall which Trevelyan uses against you. Many people have picked up on how this is very similar to the fight between Bond and Greene at the climax of Quantum of Solace, but the music suggests that the similarity is more intentional than a lot of people think.
At around the point where the fire axe comes into view, only about ten seconds or so before Trevelyan takes it off the wall, the music sounds almost identical to the music that plays just before Greene grabs the axe, when Bond is running across the roof of the hotel. However, it is much more 'toned-down' here, making it less noticeable.
