new video here :

Good to see split screen multiplayer. It's pretty rare these days, but I like it better than playing online.

new video here :

The pause menu has the Quantum of Solace interface to it. Interesting.

[BamesJond007]

As much as i love DC, I was still hoping to have Brosnan as Bond... mainly because, im my opinion, that was HIS movie, and now its taken from him...

Great! Hope the trailer's comes true!
Dislikes: [a] "Only for Wii" and [b] Bond talking to the guy in the lorry.

That was the other guy.

I actually like how they discouraged iron sight at least. I think they did a good job changing the game without changing the game play but making it modern.

Putting Daniel Craig in a Goldeneye game is wrong and evil.

Putting Daniel Craig in a Goldeneye game is wrong and evil.

not to metion extremly awesome and funny.

Kind of a final F U to the anti craig bond fans.

If that's wrong and evil, then I don't want to be right and good.

[Lachesis]

Pretty much every Bond game since Goldeneye, has claimed to be as good or better, this effort doesn't use the same developers, it doesn't have the same Bond, they even make a point of telling us its written by a different chap (one responsible for two vastly inferior movies)...its not actually a remake at all and its not actually Goldeneye at all, its another Bond game - I hope its good, I really do, but when a developer begins by trying to con me into believing something is what it clearly is not, my cynicism gets the better of me.

they actually make a point of telling us in the trailer that it is the same writer. feirstein is one of the credited writers on goldeneye

My apologise for that mistake.....I still wish they had gone for an original plot however!

[zencat]

So, wait, is Feirstein credited on the game because he wrote the movie, or did he work on the game as well?

[Matt_13]

Feirstein wrote a new script just for the game. The very brief tease of the plot mentions "Augmented Reality." No clue what that could mean, though I'm going to guess that the Goldeneye mission will be a training sim for Craig's new Bond. The fact that the Quantum of Solace interface with those interesting looking sprial circle things that were on all the computer screens in the film and game are present could mean that this all could be taking place after the events of the previous two films. Time will tell.

I'm really excited for this game. The fact that we can use and customize the motion controls (tweaking the sensativity even!) OR play with the classic controller is fantastic. It's also very reassuring that IGN liked what they saw visually. I hope the voice work is OK. I wonder how the MGM nonsense will effect this game, seeing as how the Lion is clearly attached to the production.

[zencat]

Cool. Thanks, Matt_13.

[MattofSteel]

From that multiplayer video, seems pretty obvious to me they're working from the COD engine as opposed to an update on the GE original. Some of the COD mechanics (sprinting, physically aiming down the sight) are right there.

So far I haven't seen much, if anything technical, that's actually related to the original GoldenEye. Starting to really, really seem like an unnecessary remake on an updated engine with a new Bond, aka needless cash grab.

The original GoldenEye wasn't just good because it made good use of the brand, it was good because of all its minor, revolutionary elements and a uniquely comfortable and precise control system.

Just slapping the brand on a new, rather standard FPS isn't going to work.

I might also just be bitter on account of owning an Xbox instead.

[Quantumofsolace007]

I'm curious to see what the plot actually is and what is this Augmented reality is all about.


The thing is it looks like a Craig bond film (Dark gritty full of atmosphere)


Ironically this game looks to have everything I want (written by someone who kinda knows bond Daniel Craig providing his voice and likeness)

Yet.... I'm still kinda nervous about this.

Project X and Goldeneye both are supposed to "shake up the franchise" similar to Casino Royake. Casino Royale did shake up the franchise I'm hoping Goldeneye and Project X do the same.

Gamestop and Amazon list the release date as Nov. 2nd (Wii and DS)

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

I don't like the rainy "Dam" mission and the dark "Facility". I think Activision should have captured the essence of the original game instead of giving lots of realism. I hope the script isn't a modernized version of the original, I want an improved version of the original.

Some thinks I like to see.


a- Craig's gunbarrel at the beginning.
b- Make the bungee jump and piton gun break playable in the "Dam" mission.
c- A motorbike in "Runway" instead of the tank. A 'catch the plane in mid air' mission as in the film.
d- Main titles in the film style.
e- Bond's watch in pause menu.
f- An 'escape from Tiger copter' mission, too, in "Statue Park".

The rest is very good, tough

[Bucky]

d- Main titles in the film style.

I wonder who will be singing the title song if it is redone for this game to better fit craig.

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

BTW, don't you think Jaws should be more muscled and taller as his previous renders?

[zencat]

Wow, from that pic, the Jaws of EoN blows the new GoldenEye away. Should GE be a lot better? Or is that EoN image an artist conception and not a render?

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

It's a render.

[Carver]

Can't say that this is going to want to make me rush out and buy a Wii, however intruiging this game looks. Think it's a tad harsh on Brosnan as it is his Bond film, and yes I know Craig is the current Bond but it still looks...odd having him in Goldeneye. Still, looks like they've gone the whole hog and properly reinvented the game, warts n'all. Hats off to them.

[Bucky]

just watched a video from e3 of a guy playing the game and saying that it feels like the old one. has me pretty excited.

5 multiplayer maps sounds kind of weak though. hope it ends up having more than that.

Wow, that pic makes me realise how primitive Rare's GoldenEye graphics were! Mind you, didn't stop it from being - and remaining - a cracking game.

Agreed. Very weak.

[Professor Dent]

I'm a bit mixed on this one. Interesting choice in remaking this with Craig. The graphics seem like a throwback to the N64 game so it kind of makes sense that this will be a Nintendo console only release (at least for now). I was hoping for an original story for this game but I guess we have to take what we get. Still, I'll hold out hope that they make this into a good game.

[coco1997]

I had an interesting thought today: Considering they seem to be revamping the original plot, what if the writers retrofit the game's story so as to make Trevalyan a member of Quantum?

[JackUnion]

I just want to say...This looks awful...frankly I'm embarrassed for them for even making this. FAIL.

[jaguar007]

I have read a few people here and many people upset on Yahoo that Brosnan is being replaced by Craig in the game. The thing people need to realize is that they probably don't have the legal rights to use Brosnan's likeness in the game.

It's also possible that they contacted Brosnan to try and get him involved and he told them to sod off

Looked at the yahoo comments. Wow, is it 2005 in there? Couldn't find one critic of Craig who was able to string a basic sentence together. Sample :

"Daniel Craig will never be a Bond like Pierce Brosan"

Truer words were never spoken
