I have a bad feeling about this. But at least still have perfect dark on the 360.

It's going to need serious work to stand up to the current crop of FPS games.

Easily. Really like him as Bond.

Anyone play Goldeneye: Double Agent? I fear any James Bond games after being subjected to that.

GoldenEye Remake for Wii and DS Leaked by Activision

I thought waiting 12 years for a StarCraft sequel was bad, but it turns out we've actually been waiting 13 years for a GoldenEye remake, and we didn't even know it was coming. Many companies have wanted to remake the game, and everybody else has wanted to play it, but it's always been held up by red tape. The James Bond License was bought by Electronic Arts in 1999, and then by Activision in 2007. However, the original GoldenEye 007 game for the Nintendo 64 was owned by Nintendo and Rare, and Rare is now owned by Microsoft, leading to a tragic custody battle over the years. Microsoft wouldn't let Nintendo re-release the original on the Wii's Virtual Console, and Nintendo wouldn't let Rare remake it for the 360's XBLA. Now we know why. Activision has their own remake ready, and it's exclusively for Nintendo's Wii and DS systems.

GoNintendo received an anonymous tip about a leaked Activision survey, with pictures of two covers for a Wii game, a golden Classic Controller, and a new Wii Zapper modeled after the infamous Golden Gun. It also had this tasty quote, revealing that the game will have improved graphics and physics, 8 player online multiplayer, and Daniel Craig will be replacing Pierce Brosnan:

"GoldenEye for the Nintendo 64 was a game that defined a genre. Now, after 13 years of gaming innovation, the legend is re-imagined. Developed from the ground up for the Wii, GoldenEye takes advantage of the latest technology to deliver the same intense experience with today's graphics and physics. Play a modernized version of the classic story with the new Bond (Daniel Craig), more lethal and cunning than ever as you take on missions around the world. Relive all the legendary moments from the original game: St Petersburg, the Caribbean and numerous other levels. Leverage the classic arsenal of weapons and gadgets as you fight Onatopp, Trevelyan and their adversaries, from the classic PP7 to the high tech assault rifle, sniper rifles and even the tank. The enhanced multiplayer experience offers 4 player split-screen like the original and introduces 8 player online matches. GoldenEye is 13 years better, are you?"

This is going to suck. Lets not ruin its memory by trying to re-release it.

Oh dear. I've got a bad feeling about this.

At least it might open the possibility of Rare releasing their shelved XBLA port of Goldeneye. If I recall correctly, they had received permission to release it from all of the relevant parties other than Nintendo... so now that they're making a profit off of the carcass of what once was Goldeneye, hopefully they'll let Rare do the same!

Rogue Agent was an EA game. Activision are the new EA. Therefore, we can conclude that this new Goldeneye will suck.

Nintendo have no rights to Goldeneye. It was the owners of the Bond license at the time that turned it down which i think was Activision at the time.

I agree with most people here that it will suck
However to put it into perspective, given that the game was just so damn good for its time back then I think its now near impossible to beat the experience it gave us.
But I'll still buy it anyway!

But they did publish Goldeneye originally... I think that does entitle them to some say in what happens to it now. As far as I know Activision gave them the go ahead! Could be wrong, but that's what I heard.

Retr0gamer

You might be right, there's reports of both nintendo and activision being the culprits.

I hope this is as good or better than Duke Nukem Forever! :pac:

I suppose all that janky level geometry, archaic AI, tiny multiplayer arenas, lack of a jump button, constantly respawning enemies, multitudes of crates and red barrels, awful tank mission and even worse gaurd natalia mission is going to stand up today?
