Why all the hate?
It's just Daniel Craig's face, plus the graphics are better than the N64 version, and the gameplay is probably the same golden formula that still works nicely.

Yeah, I don't know about this one. They've been trying to make this particular brand of gold lightning strike twice now, for quite some time. They came close with Perfect Dark, but all other attempts have ended poorly, for the most part.
Aside from the ludicrous plot Perfect Dark was a far superior game. It had more depth and options than any game I've played before or since. Now everything is about graphics so no one is going to make games with 60+ weapons that all have second abilities, or co-op AND counter-op. Those were the good old days when developers cared about the quality of their product.
Sure, and aside from the sometimes childish colourful aesthetic, it was, at its core a much improved game. But the simplicity and grittiness of the first was something the second was lacking. Both great games, and this one will have some mighty big shoes to fill if they wish to top them.

looks fun, but...
*sigh* did they REALLY have to bring back Oddjob to the Multiplayer? I hope they fixed the aiming mechanics over the last 15 years :(

Wow, this looks ugly. If it is as fun as 007 n64 it will be awesome but, damn, the graphical quality almost looks worse than the original. Mr. Craig's oblate spheroid head certainly doesn't improve matters any.

I looked at this and thought 'Man, these graphics look awful.' Then I saw it was on Wii and was no longer surprised.

looks like it'll be fun. better than n64 obviously and hey, maybe I'll be able to follow theplot, rather than compare it's likeness to the original movie

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.

I played this game at PAX and it really is just a watered down Call of Duty. The multiplayer feels NOTHING like Goldeneye. It feels like a bad fan mod for Modern Warfare. This is just a cheap licensing gimmick cash in game.

DO NOT PURCHASE

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.

Dear Daniel Craig,
You have ruined James Bond by making him into a lame version of Jason Bourne who doesn't have any cool gadgets, any funny quips, or any personality. Please crawl into a dark corner somewhere and die.

Dear ReiverCorrupter

Thank you for your letter.

I regret to inform you that your copy of the latest James Bond movies must have had a miss-print in the opening credits. I am an actor hired to play a character. I did not write the script, build the sets, or direct the movies. I feel your feelings must be directed towards the studio and directors of the franchise, and not the cast or crew.

Sincerely

Daniel Craig
thirteen wins by a landslide.

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.

Dear Daniel Craig,

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,
ReiverCorrupter

Dear ReiverCorrupter

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

Daniel Craig

P.S. To thank you for your helpful career advice here's a signed picture of myself looking smug.

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!
