I looked at this and thought 'Man, these graphics look awful.' Then I saw it was on Wii and was no longer surprised.
I'll stick with Goldeneye Source. I am glad to see the team is continuing even after the guy committed suicide, and they're honoring him by finishing it.
There is a fine line between changing so little that it looks like an obvious moneymaker and changing so much that it looks nothing like the original, and this one tiptoed over that line quite well before stepping on its own shoelaces and tumbling to the side. It changed a little too much.
I mean, the original already let you drive a tank. Twice. You don't need much else.
Of course this is just a trailer but since I don't have a wii it's all I'll know about it anyway.

That's my beef with this game: it's not. It's basically a Modern Warfare mod, judging from the gameplay videos. Sprint buttons! Melee buttons! Instakill melees! Wouldn't be too surprised if there was regenerating health in there as well. All in all, it's a cash-in.NLS said:

OT: It looks like a good game. Sure, it won't be the same without Pierce's pixelated face at the start of every level, but to be honest, that's not really important.
Not a Bond fan, but honestly, this game's graphics look like shit. What the hey, what is this, a PS2 game? Pete's sake, I know it's for the Wii, but No More Heroes looked way better than that.
Aside from the graphics, oh joy, another FPS. Yeah, I'll pass.

Thank you for your prompt reply. I apologize for my over-zealousness. Perhaps I was a little bit too hasty. However, I must question why you were so willing to go along with what was such an obviously terrible turn for the franchise. And why could you not at least dye your hair? Though in your defense I would rather have a blond 007 than another ginger like Roger Moore. Please do not accept any more roles as 007 unless they revise the scripts to the point at which you are actually permitted to play James Bond. Also please tell Matt Damon not to try to act anymore.
-Yours,

In answer to your question they offered me a vast sum of money, and, to be honest, I needed it. I was in TOMB RAIDER for God's sake! And did I get a sex scene with Angelina Jolie? Did I fuck. Now I've got more money and ass than I know what to do with. If they want to remake James Bond, and pay me by the fistful then let them. I've got my pick of classy Oscar bait roles now, and even if they replace me I can ride the whole 007 ticket for the rest of my career. Sean Connery was just some git with a Scottish accent, now he's been knighted, and it sure as hell wasn't for Highlander II.
If the studio wants to save on gadgets and hollowed out Volcano lair sets then that's fine and dandy by me. Also if they don't want to dye my locks then that just means I don't have to spend an hour in Makeup with tinfoil in my hair while someone touches up my roots.
Also a lot of people have tried to stop Matt Damon, but to be honest he throws such good Wrap parties that, to be honest, it's worth just sticking him in movies. You should try his Potato Salad, its to die for.
Hugs and Kisses

I'd be pretty interested in this if I had a Wii... and it's the first Wii title that's made me say that. However, I wouldn't be interested enough to buy it on release day; the levels seem different enough (as if you can tell from that trailor, but still) that it almost looks like a different game with the Goldeneye title. If it was literally just the old game with upgraded graphics (lol), a few extra animations for getting into and out of the tanks and real names on the guns I'd buy it, but soembody taking "artistic license" with the level design and plot... not worth the risk.
Oh and I'm with the "what on Earth is Daniel Craig doing here?" crowd; while I didn't particularly like the new Bond films I'm under no impression that Craig was the cause of that dislike (poor plot, long plot and badly written plot pretty much sumarises why I spent half of Casino Royal wishing I was somewhere else). On the other hand... Goldeneye's Bond is Pierce Brosnen (that's probably spelt wrong), he's the actor who played the films, that's the likeness in the origional game. Whenever a new actor comes out they don't go and dub him in to all the old films do they? So leave the dubbing out of the games too, even if they are built from scratch every time!

HEY GUISE! No one's played it yet, so let's all say it's a bad game that should feel bad, even though none of us have seen anything more than a few trailers! That way, we can all feel extra smug when our friends buy it and it turns out to be pretty decent, despite our predictions!
YEEEAAAAH!
YEEEAAAAH!

Personally, I will get this game, and love the hell out of it. I loved (and still play) the original GoldenEye, and, while this is different, at least they are making an EFFORT.
If you wanted a port of the original, why not just play the original? I understand some of you might not have it anymore, but what's stopping you from going to a swap meet, and buying a ~$10 used copy?
Second, just because Craig is in it doesn't automatically make it bad. Sure, I would have LIKED to see Brosnan there, but his likeness is trademarked (or something) by HIM. And Brosnan did not want to return to the 007 series. Besides that, as others before me have said, Craig did not make Bond "gritty", the writers/producers did. Craig just plays him.
Third, there is a reason why the game is a Wii exclusive, and why it is VERY different from the original. The original GoldenEye was a N64 EXCLUSIVE. Nintendo has SOME rights to it. However, Rare made the game, but is now owned by Microsoft. Nintendo and Microsoft would have both released a port of GoldenEye, but Nintendo would get the original, while Microsoft would get an HD port. Not to mention, the rights to the 007 game franchise belonged to EA, and now to Activision. Just getting GoldenEye out again is a freakin' miracle. Of course, Rare owns the levels of the original, so Eurocom can't just do those levels.
All in all, I'm gonna get this game. It looks fun to play, and a good game in its own right.

I am afraid for this game. Ever since the original GoldenEye was released, the newer 007 games have constantly been compared to GoldenEye. Even the great 007 games, like Nightfire, have had reviews end with "It's great, but it's no GoldenEye". Now that a GoldenEye game has been released, I am afraid reviews are going to murder this game.
All in all, I'm gonna get this game. It looks fun to play, and a good game in its own right.
