Goldeneye 007
built 184 days ago
Goldeneye 007 is an innovative first-person shooter that represents a step forward for the genre. Let's hope that the PC programming wizards at ID Software and 3D Realms are paying close attention to the gameplay of this N64 title. In the meantime, every N64 owner is encouraged to try this one. Nintendo's "quality over quantity" philosophy may remain controversial, but there's simply no denying that it produces great games.

Goldeneye 007 is a video game on the Nintendo 64. It follows the story of the movie Goldeneye. The main character of the game is James Bond, Agent 007. It is a 3D first person shooter style game. Its multiplayer mode is very popular, and critic acclaimed.

Unlike virtually every first-person shooter that has preceded it, Goldeneye 007 rewards stealth as well as slaughter. In the typical first-person shooter (Quake, Doom, Hexen, etc.), players simply acquire the most powerful weaponry available, and kill everything in sight. But several levels in Goldeneye are best completed by careful, quiet progress, as opposed to brute force. Goldeneye gameplay ... provides a refreshing break from several tired first- person cliches.

Numerous sources over the last few days have indicated that Goldeneye 007, the classic Nintendo 64 shooter, will be brought to the Xbox Live Arcade by Rare. Not only that, but it's possible that Rare will be bringing other popular old franchises to the XBLA as well.

The World Is not Enough was released in October 2000, over three years after Goldeneye 007, so it should look better! Also, it was developed by Eurocom, which was a pretty good development team on the N64 (Mortal Kombat 4, Cruis'n World, Hydro Thunder, Duke Nukem: Zero Hour, etc.). The framerate is quite good too, even in high-resolution mode.
