Everyone’s favorite game from the Nintendo 64 is making a comeback. Nintendo unveiled at E3 that Goldeneye 007 will be coming to the Wii. The remake will draw from the original in some aspects, but will also reflect the direction of recent Bond movies meaning Pierce Brosnan’s Bond will be replaced by a Daniel Craig version. It will of course be a first-person shooter like the original, but will feature different control schemes to fit the Wii’s motion sensing controllers.

As much as everyone raves about this, I have a feeling it’s going to be a let down in the long run. Yeah, every guy I know has wasted countless of hours on this game but I think we’ve been exposed to so many top notch FPS that we’ll play it for the nostalgic reasons and then we’ll be like, “Eh…that was fun” and put it aside for something else.
Remember, this game, to many, was already tossed aside for Perfect Dark and in most aspects, wasn’t much of a step up.
I loved the original, and this looks true to the first. Sad that it’s only on the Wii, it’s the only console I don’t have :(
GE:S goldeneye source for the PC. we rock the original. google it.
agreed. GoldenEye is the best
I don’t know anybody who played the story. We always played the head-2-head levels for hours.
Yea I really haven’t played an FPS that grabbed me like Goldeneye on any console since.
And if you say Halo you’re only fooling yourself.
daa daaannnt daaa daaaaa….
So stupid that it’s only for Wii. Microsoft owns Rare. Apparently Rare was given zero credit during the presentation for how awesome the original game was. Not to mention a full port for XBLA was nearly done a few years ago.
So classic! Can't wait to see this.
