Golden Eye 007

GoldenEye 007 is a 1997 first-person shooter video game developed by Rare for the Nintendo 64 video game console, and based on the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye. GoldenEye 007 was originally announced for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System before being stepped up to the Nintendo 64.

Golden Eye 007

GoldenEye 007 is a 1997 first-person shooter video game developed by Rare for the Nintendo 64 video game console, and based on the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye. GoldenEye 007 was originally announced for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System before being stepped up to the Nintendo 64. The intention for the first few months of development was for the game to be an on-rails shooter similar to Virtua Cop; it only became a first-person shooter later in development. The game is based upon the GoldenEye film and its novelization by John Gardner, but, as game designer Martin Hollis explained, many of the missions were extended or modified to allow the player to participate in sequences of which Bond was not originally a part, or those in which he only played a minor role.

Features

GoldenEye 007’s menu system is presented as an MI6 dossier. Four save files are available to track the player’s progress through the game’s twenty missions. Once a mission is completed, the player may either continue progressing through the story or choose to replay a previously completed level. Completing certain missions within particular target times enables the player to unlock bonus cheat options which make various changes to the graphics and gameplay, and upon fully completing the game on the 00-Agent difficulty level, an additional "007" setting allows the player to customize the challenge of any mission. The player’s initial weapon in most missions is James Bond’s Walther PPK. Most of the game’s firearms are modelled on real-life counterparts, while others are based on fictitious devices featured in the Bond films, such as the Golden Gun and Moonraker laser.

    Talk about a masterwork. If you ever found yourself in the completely unrealistic situation of choosing one N64 cart and one alone to spend the rest of your days with, the choice would at least be a relatively easy one. You've gotta go with James Bond. Read more

    Couple these wonderful features and the perfect difficultly curve and extra time attack to win bonus features and you have the greatest console game ever. Well, that's what I think anyway and what I say on this site goes. Read more

    Rare have out done themselves this time. Everything about Goldeneye screams quality, from the layout of the levels and missions to the sheer attention to detail. One of the most immersive Doom games yet, and one you must own. Probably the best title on the system. Read more

    Or boast they have a car that can double up as a submarine. The guy is a legend an ambassador for all things good if you will. Well it’s no surprise then that so many people would love to be him. Well if you have ever had such a wish, then get ready for a dream come true. <br><br> While this game won’t let you accomplish Bond’s aforementioned sexual prowess, it will, however let you try your hand at becoming a top spy in true Bond style and this game replicates...

    There have been many games starring James Bond, going back to the earliest consoles. But no game before or since Goldeneye has ever given the player such a strong feeling of actually being the man himself. The old saying about the appeal of James Bond was ”men want to be him, women want to be with him”. Of course in the 21st century, both men and women want to be Bond (well this woman does at any rate). Bond is a true English hero; he is always smartly dressed,... Read more

    GoldenEye is by far the best game that was ever made for Nintendo 64. Though the graphics may not be considered as good as today’s graphics, the game play of the game is exceptional. Read more

    This game was the funnest game to play growing up with the family. We had some good times shooting each other up and increasing our skills with this game. I give this one two thumbs up they did a great job with it. One of the good things about this game is that it resembled the movie really well. Read more
