Activision has published this new trailer of GoldenEye 007 Reloaded focusing on multiplayer. The title will support 16-player online multiplayer and four-player split-screen.
Absolutely shameless rapage of a classic. "The legend has never been better!" Erm, yes it fucking has - 14 years ago. This is not the legend known as Goldeneye on the N64. Stop fucking with my teenage memories by trying to leech money off the back of what is one of the best console games in living memory, Activision.
I saw iron sights... iron sights..... ummm did they even look at the original game? I mean, I know it had a fake iron sight, but not THIS iron sight we are all used too...
Haha lol at all these rose tinted glasses wearing fools! not saying this game looks great or anything but it does not look as terrible as your all making it out to be! I wasn't all smitten by the original Golden eye like so that maybe has something to do with it.

Dont get me wrong, goldeneye plays like shit now, aged badly, but THIS is not what that was.
but if this WAS what that was, then it would also play badly. you can't appeal to the nostalgia crowd with updated gameplay, but you cant appeal to the new crowd with old, tired, shitty gameplay either. they did the right thing with this, i wont be buying it, but i appreciate the NEEDED updates. hell. if you want to play old, "aged horribly" goldeneye, play the original, it's what it's there for.
of course the graphics are very very dated, but in terms of gameplay and gamedesign i prefer to play the "aged horribly" Goldeneye on N64 (or PD64) to all those "modern" casualized shooters like Call of Duty, Killzone etc...

yeah i know, just wanted to say that not every gamer on this planet thinks that "modern shooter features" like autoregen health, checkpoints every 2 minutes, totally linear level design etc. are taken positive, but of course it's a minority and the developers have to appeal to the mainstream if they wanna sell there games in these times, no prob :)

Well Goldeneye doesn't need any checkpoints because the levels were 5min. long.

Fool? It's got fuck all to do with "rose tinted" anything. That term is so widely thrown about it's nauseating. It's the sheer brass neck of Activision on trying to capitalise on the reputation and the memory of a classic by regurgitating a half-arsed remake of their own vision, which looks horribly too much like COD and all the overplayed mechanics it uses (the aiming down the ironsights for one) that makes this game look so cringeworthy in comparison to what was genuinely one of the few original and innovative classic FPS ever made. They are basically shitting all over it here. And don't give me that times have moved on bollocks either. If they want to do a remake, then take what GE had and improve and innovate it, because that's what the game deserves. Not this COD clone shite.

The Perfect Dark remake on XBLA was a very good example of how to handle things. This is just shit.
yeah and no, they handled it well, but chickened out with the controls, instead putting in major auto aim (if original was this bad then i let them off but i cant rem) but there was NO need to aim what so ever.
