Really? Now this is getting interesting. Hope they make it goldeneye and not Call of Goldeneye.
Also, Dibs on Oddjob!

Put Pierce Brosnan back in and Rare in the lead, and I MIGHT be interested. **grumble**grumble**stupid Daniel Craig, ruining my childhood...

If you want this game released anytime in the next decade... keep Rare far away.
Also, nothing wrong with Daniel Craig.

@SephirothX, you do have a point, but it was a Pierce Brosnan film. If they had slapped Sir Connery into Casino Royale, I might have thrown and little fit. Might have.
Just leave the associated actors with the namesake. It hurts no one.

I know golden eye had a huge impact on gaming, but I don't think n64 fps games help up as well as some of the other genres on the console, so I'm not sure how much hd will help. People will still buy the shit outta it anyway

Rare is a'ight. The Kinect sports titles are really great.
Whis is why we'll never get KI3

I'd sooner expect an entirely new game like Rogue Agent. I'd imagine Nintendo holding the rights to Goldeneye wouldn't allow a port to just show up on 360/PS3.
Ya know... it's really not that good of a shooter. Oh, sure, it was good at the time but it really doesn't hold up very well.
If this isn't a remake of the original then do not want.
Remake of the original on to be played with usable controllers and online mutliplayer = win!

I seriously doubt this is the Wii game, as those paying attention would know it was a big paid exclusive and funded by Nintendo.
Which while impressively balanced for an online game published by Activision, was ultimately ruined by the CoD elements that were shoehorned on it and the needless EXP grind just to play classic Goldeneye modes.
The single-player side was good fun and made me yearn for more first-person based spy fare.
Also, when are people going to realise that Rare is fundamentally not the same developer now that they were on the N64? That Rare is dead. It started falling apart over a decade ago. The Rare with MS is not that Rare, its just who's left. All that original talent went to other studios.
All in all it sounds like another cash-in.
Big surprise since its probably Activision's cash-in.

The word I was looking for was port, not remake! Port Goldeneye to the XBL Arcade with online multiplayer and HD graphics and I'm sold.

actually this definitely isn't a port of a wii game.
about 2 years ago there were rumors that Nintendo, Microsoft and Activision sorted things out in terms of GoldenEye 007. Activision would release remake of the game exclusively for wii and MS could release upscalled port of original on XBLA which was in the works at the time(there were some screenshots posted).
considering GoldenEye 007 was released last year, i'm guessing the rumors were true.

If you consider yourself an FPS fan and haven't played Goldeneye on Wii then you you should be ashamed. You are truly doing yourself a disservice. The game was absolutely excellent.
It was well-paced, had great graphics considering the hardware, had a competent multiplayer suite, and (most importantly) had the most intuitive and functional cover system I have ever seen in an FPS game... ever. Instead of holding an extra button and switching perspectives (see: Rainbow Six: Vegas series) or having a cover system where you could still be shot AND not see anything (see: Killzone 2-3) it offered the simplest of solutions: if you crouch behind something and pull the trigger, you automatically pop up above it. Genius!
In all seriousness, lead/story changes aside, Goldeneye on Wii was an excellent FPS game. It retained the spirit of the first film/movie while bringing it into the more modern vein of FPS mechanics. Heck, I even wish more FPS games would have the varying objectives per difficulty level like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark had. It makes the titles much more enjoyable on replays without making it feel overtly cheap (see: CoD).
Had the game released on the HD consoles with a more competent multiplayer suite it could have been the shooter of the year. Seriously. It already was, in my eyes.

To me it seems more likely it'll be a 3ds game. Why would nintendo allow that shit to happen on its competitors console? Since the 3ds seems to be like a portable n64 at this point it makes sense.
Omg that last post I made also made me realize that it could be possible of a 3d remake of conkers bad fur day on the 3ds!!! Ya know the good one, not the xbox one.
I have a feeling it's a re-release of the Goldeneye game that was released last year only with major tweaks to the gameplay, Wii Motion+, voice chat and a more robust online component.
Depends on whether Nintendo's permissions extend to an original GE game or not, I suppose. My bet would be on a 3DS port, I can't see Activision doing a third version of the same single player game and Nintendo are typically immovable towards 'their' games (aka the original GoldenEye) appearing on competitors' consoles, hence the XBLA game being canned. I suppose something for Wii U is possible, but then a brand new game still seems very unlikely to me.
This can be done right, so I'm not going to shoot it down yet, but they really just need to focus on graphics, and maybe cleaning up the shooting element to make auto aim a little bit less auto and a little more aim. The game itself is aged, but they shouldn't be making this for the call of duty kid, they should be making this for the people with fond memories from their childhood of proximity mines and golden guns.
I love reboot!
I come from the Net - through systems, peoples, and cities - to this place: DTOID. My format: Guardian. To mend and defend - to defend my new found friends, their hopes and dreams, and to defend them from their enemies. They say The User lives outside the Net and inputs games for pleasure. No one knows for sure, but I intend to find out. ReBoot!
wait... were talking about a different kind of reboot aren't we?

I liked it as well, but I didn't go in expecting a true to the classic remake. I expected it to be some what like the old one, but closer to an entirely new experience, and it was. It wasn't a bad game, but people expected a true to the N64 version (for some reason...) and it was never going to be like that.

@Lemon-Fresh To be honest most with those lofty expectations never played it in its original form on an N64.
@Dv8thwonder
I don't know, I used to frequent different game forums all the time, and more people were complaining that it didn't stay true to the classic. Its possible they could just be spewing shit, which wouldn't be unusual, thats what gamers usually do, but I thought a lot were genuine complaints about somewhat baffling things like the laser watch, which I have to be honest, I don't give two shits about.
You could still see some of old goldeneye, and I liked that, I got what I wanted, but I'd really like a true to the old as well. Maybe some day.

since i remember seeing the cover for the game i remember thinking thats such a bad layout. i mean why did they put james bonds hand and gun next to his mouth to make him look like a frog xD
If I had to guess, they're probably going to HD-ify Goldeneye Wii, add some extra content, and plunk it on the PS3/360.
I think they need to let GoldenEye die a nice peaceful death, although I may be wrong on this, but it seems like the game hasn't aged very well. The game was a big deal back then, but now it would just be another shooter, and so many companies are turning out AAA shooters every few month it's nearly impossible to compete with them. The FPS genre has evolved so much, I don't think any shooter from any developer could capture the same kind of energy as the original. That game was a big deal cause there wasn't many other things like it consoles, now it's the predominate genre on consoles. Rare is not the same company anymore, and I don't think anyone can ever properly fill their shoes.
Well, they did say once that Goldeneye on XBLA was doe before all the cunts got their knickers in a twist. Guess they figure may as well take the money.
Any new Goldeneye games will fail, because the only reason Goldeneye was successful in the first place was that it introduced FPS gaming to a lot of people who had never experienced it before. Anybody who played FPS games on PC prior to Goldeneye can vouch that it was a mediocre shooter at best. Now that it has all this legitimate competition, it doesn't stand a chance.
