Probably a 5/5 from me. Easily the best modern Bond game since the original. Oh, and, my goodness, the Multilayer is addictive. I just hope Activision hurry up and release a patch for it. I don't want to spend forever trying to get in a match.

It has it's teething troubles, but overall a fantastic Bond game.

A nice blend of action and stealth gameplay.

I don't know how people can say that. The story mode is a great updating of the 64 campaign and quite a bit more involved and challenging then most games out there on 007 Classic mode. Love all the additional objectives and that you can miss them if you're not careful, just like the good old days. Love visiting old locals with a new spin.

MI6 Ops mode is also pretty involved and quite damn tricky to get 4 star rankings. I've found myself needing to play these over and over and over again, repetition I haven't found necessary since the older days of gaming. And I still only have two four star rankings so far

The multiplayer is also really solid, though I can't handle 16 players without dying a million times.

This is easily the best Bond game since Goldeneye 64, a great remake in its own right, and really could well be the best Bond game ever. It is by no means a disappointment.

I wish it was getting the respect it deserves. Is is as good as the original. Gamers shoud be rejoicing. The ONLY reason it hasn't gotten the acclaim it did on the wii is because e next gen market is overstated and it's "cool" to like COD and hate on this. It is the exact same game, only improved, and therefore all the praise the Wii version got this one gets, only moreso.

Well for one, I thought the main story mode was decent, but the gameplay is just like most modern FPS games, repetitive. I didn't do the multiplayer, didn't care for it at all. I will end up buying this game, mainly because it is 007, other than that It's pretty mediocre at best. I prefer Blood Stone and Quantum Of Solace.

All in all, I am pretty disappointed in this game. It could, and should have been much better, given it's pedigree. Bloodstone is a much better game, and feels more like a Bond adventure than Goldeneye: Reloaded, which seemed uninspired to say the least.

It's Such A Shame That So Few Play Online These Days..

I did find the multiplayer fun, but way too glitchy compared to the COD engine. Maybe that's something they can fix with a patch. I wish we'd get a multiplayer game with levels from the films like Dr. NO's lair, Golden Gate bridge, heck, even the underwater battle from Thunderball would be great.

[thecasinoroyale]

I've yet to try multiplayer and am only up to Severnaya on the story mode, which is the best level so far..and I like it!

I was unsure of first as I kept having N64 flashbacks and thinking it was a bit cheap for a 'remake', but you start to get into it and understand it's the same story, new take, and it's great playing as Craig as always.

Looking forward to progressing more!!

[TheREAL008]

Considering it's a much more HD version of the Wii game, with some new multiplayer options added. I'll give it a perfect 10. Plays well, somewhat better on my PS3 than on my Wii. Either way I'm satisfied.

4, I agree, best Bond game since GE64, IMO. I was surprised how well it was and how much I enjoyed it, considering my disappointment discovering it was not a re-release or exact remake of GE64.

2/5

Never played such a boring Bond game - wasted money. Activision keep developing such games like Bloodstone!

Finally GE:R is good enough to entertain me on rainy days

[00 Brosnan]

3/5

I was disappointed somewhat in this game as well. Overall it just had a kind of subdued, boring, cookie-cutter feel to it. Nothing about the game really stands out. It's too much like Call of Duty to be honest.

I don't like original story concepts for Bond games either. I'd rather they adapt a film or multiple films (like Legends) so I can play out events I've seen in the films.

Overall it's an average game that doesn't do anything special and probably my least-liked Bond game.

[General_Ourumov]

The story was good for what is was, but in all honesty it was utterly disquisting. The one part that made Goldeneye the original so amazing was of course the multiplayer, I mean really, who wants to be random guard skins......instead of the classic characters. Don't even get me started on the "loadout" and perks, and last but not least No Pierce Brosnan..............................................

Just got it a few weeks ago and am enjoying it quite a bit (My sister's kids LOVE watching me play it)
I used a cheat that opened up all the MI6 ops and that's where I spend most of my time. the storyline game is ok but I miss the likeness's of Brosnan, Bean, etc... I understand Craig is "Flavor of the Month" but If I had my way I'd have some things added to it
Choose your Bond DLC
Player can select which Bond Likeness they want to play as
Daniel Craig
Pierce Brosnan
Sean Connery
Roger Moore
Timothy Dalton
George Lazenby

Guns
now while I largely have no problem with the current Arsenal available in GE:R I would like to see them add
the Classic Walther PPK (Craig switched back from the P99)
The Smith and Wesson ASP (Bond used this in the John Gardner Books and the Mike Grell Comic Permission to Die)

Maps (Multiplayer/MI6 Ops)

Updates for the Maps in Goldeneye 64
Library
Aztec
Egyptian
etc....
