When did I say it did? I was talking about Perfect Dark. You said:



No, I didn't. I was talking about Perfect Dark and I'm right. I know that the new Goldeneye is a new game altogether. Where did you get the idea of anything to the contrary?

I was talking to Martin sorry.

[MusicallyInspired]

So you quoted me but you were talking to Martin? Besides, Martin was only confirming what I said in the first place. He knows Goldeneye is a new game.

I never quoted you. Anyway I now Goldeneye Wii will NOT retain the feel of the old game, I read a preview in EDGE and it said the orginal Multipayler maps will NOT be re-created and the whole game will like COD

[MusicallyInspired]

Everyone wants to see a Goldeneye that looks next-gen but the same levels. I know I do. Never underestimate the power of a remake.

I saw the preview trailer on the Wii Nintendo Channel (they put it up during E3 or whatever game con it was announced at) with the marketing executives being total sleaze and saying shit like "Remember Goldeneye!? It was SO COOL. WELL NOW IT'S BACK!" and then watching those total "paid actor" focus testers get all excited, it was so retarded. Even if it was a real conversation they had with real people, why do I care? Why do I need to see a video of some gamer having a nerdgasm? Why do they continue to lump gamers into a stereotype where if some "gamer" gets excited we all do? It was a completely fucking stupid way to start out a trailer.

They did it so people who haven't played the original will feel safer and more secure about the fact that it is actually a good game.

Don't be so jaded and cynical.

Goldeneye doesn't need to come back, this generation already has a few "Goldeneyes" IMO (and I don't mean 007 licensed games, I mean games that capture the spirit of GE).

As for the game itself, it never really looked THAT great. It had it's shining points, though. I admit that even though the enemies had stupid-doofy faces (are those the programmers or something?) the photorealism of the faces blew me away, the same goes for the environment textures. Also when it went into cutscene mode and everything moved more like a movie (do you know what I'm talking about? How did they do that!?), that was cool.

The graphics were never really the point of praise for the game, though. I never personally had an N64 until the end of it's lifecycle when I broke down and bought a Pikachu N64, but I used to play 4P at a friend's house and in MP you don't care about the graphics (at least I didn't), it's all about the fun you have.

I don't have high expectations at all for this new game. Activision destroys everything it touches, and while I can't make a judgment based on a video alone, it looked like they only cared about copying the looks and aesthetic of Goldeneye, but putting it in a different engine that looks like it would feel different and not like the original. Also I'm not a big fan of Daniel Craig either, but that's neither here nor there.

FWIW, I've only played one game that captured the essence of what Goldeneye brought to the table gameplay-wise, and that's Timesplitters 2 (and surprise surprise when you consider who was behind it).

Anyway I don't have to bitch about this new Goldeneye if it's not exactly like the original. I have the original rotting in my closet, and if I actually cared I would break it out and play it once in a while.

tl;dr: much like most of my posts, there is no point. :3

100% true. But the graphics at the time were fab. I brought the N64 at the start and I personally thought they were great. Anyway Goldeneye is sooooooooooo fondly remembered that no one care about the graphics. And about a game that matches GE in terms of gameplay well what about Perfect Dark? And as you know because the thread I made I too hate Activision.

BTW MusicallyInspired about levels returning don't hold your breath as I know for a FACT that at the very least the MP levels are NOT coming back as said EDGE mag. preview.

[MusicallyInspired]

I know not all the same maps are coming back. It's supposed to rather resemble Goldeneye with have familiar locales and construction rather than having the exact same layout. I'm starting to think that this might as well just be a new game altogether.

Everything you said makes me want to die

[Inspector Lagomorf]

I wonder if there will be driving sequences like in some of the more modern 007 games like Nightfire or From Russia With Love.

I must say, it's fascinating to watch trolls troll trolls.

You take being a troll as a compliment? That's not something to be proud of.

Eh, Goldeneye sucked in terms of story, graphics, and just about everything other than gameplay. The gameplay is the only reason anyone remembers it. I still love playing it in Deathmatch. So basically, I don't give a shit about anything in this remake except the gameplay, so whats the point? I'll play the original because I don't have a Wii, and I already have an N64 and a copy of Goldeneye.
