Activision announces GoldenEye 007: Reloaded for PS3/360 photo

Activision has officially announced GoldenEye 007: Reloaded for PS3 and Xbox 360. It will take the Wii remake of the classic N64 Game, run it through a brand new engine to deliver HD visuals, and support the PlayStation Move controller. 

The remake will include a new gameplay mode, "Mi6 Ops Missions." These challenge levels are distinct from the campaign and provide players with a series of Assault, Elimination, Stealth and Defence objectives. 

Naturally, multiplayer will be a big part of the experience, with 16-player online matches and a whole batch of new weapons, maps, modes and characters. Don't worry -- the classic four-player split-screen mode will be included for old schoolers!

It's scheduled for Fall 2011. You can get a first glimpse of it on the official site.

More importantly, are they going to charge full price for this?

"It will take the classic Nintendo 64 game, run it through a brand new engine to deliver HD visuals"

Actually, judging from the screenshots, it's clearly a port of The Wii remake that was released last year.

Nice, i've never played this! But since the evil publisher likes to swap Bonds, i thought of an idea! It would be cool if all the Bond actors were in the game and you could choose what Bond to play as! Me personally Roger Moore all the way.

Didn't we remake Goldeneye already? How many times does this need to happen in a generation?

This is becoming like the Final Fantasy 1 of first person shooters.

Goldeneye 007 on Wii is one of the best-playing FPS games of this generation. If you haven't played it, as an FPS fan, you are doing yourself a disservice. Disregard your feelings of remaking a classic like Goldeneye and play it (or this). You will be glad you did AND you will be wondering why big name shooters like CoD and Battlefield don't implement such an ingenious cover mechanic like this game has.

If the multiplayer suite is expanded from what was offered on Wii I will be purchasing this... again. The game is THAT good.

The Wiimake was a good game, but with the glut of other high-quality FPSes on the 360 and PS3, will the intended audience really have the time and patience for what amounts to just another shooter?

While I intended to get the Wii version, I stopped once I saw videos of it being Call of Duty. This version would definitely be better for online support, but I don't know how often I'd play it online. It just looks meh.

The Wii version was pretty horrid which it's a remake of, which barely has any gameplay like the N64 game.

If the N64 game could get the Perfect Dark treatment on XBLA, then I'd want it. Not this.

@jim I think people finally realized that goldeneye isn't a fine wine, and hasn't aged too well. Imo anyway.

Guys, calm the fuck down. At least it's no SD remake where we really had a reason to whine about.

Wait so yet another of the few good wii exclusives might be going to the HD consoles? If so then yeah.

Also I think it's weird how spit screen is almost a throwaway option nowadays. Now we have larger, HD televisions, it should be better than ever however most games only offer two player split screen or no local multiplayer whatsoever. I guess that pretty much everybody does just play online.

I want this. Ive wanted it for years and I'm getting it. I dony care about the negativity from people who have no intention of buying the game or the pissy attitude of people who don't like it. Go fuck yourselves in the arse with a chainsaw. Sideways.

@Jim
Can you clarify. Is it the N64 version or the Wii version? I read yesterday it's the Wii version. Withers good for me, I'm just curious.

The hate is probably because:

-The name is the selling point, if the same game with a different name looked like this and was from activision people would not even give it the time of day.
-It looks like CoD and those Mi6 Op Missions are probably going to be this games version of Spec Ops.
-It's Activision, so it's obviously a cash grab.

As a man who has recentely finished the Wiimake twice, I can easily confirm from the screenshots alone, that it is indeed a port of the Wii game.

I honestely really liked the Wii version, so if they hopefully improve on some of it's flaws (terrible QTEs, horrendus last bossfight), I see this as a good thing.

One of the best FPS's in years. I am still playing the mp. Will double dip here. Finally a chance to directly compare the wii with the move controls.

This is NOT a remake of the N64 fame, apart from the first 5 minutes of the campaign.

The Wii version blew pretty hard (my friends and I played it for a few hours before we never played it again on evening). It was Call of Duty with worse mechanics, bad IR shooting, and a horrid framerate.

If this was a remake of the original, Perfect Dark XBLA style, I'd bite. Otherwise, I'll pass on "Call of Goldeneye".

This is basically saying, "Fuck you Nintendo" and going on to capitalize on those who bought a 360 because of Rare.

@ Magnalon
Yes, I think it uses the CoD engine, but that doesn't make it the same thing when it comes to gameplay, not at all. On the easiest mode you can go guns blazing. But on Agent and 007 there are a objectives, the need to explore the open (copmared to CoD) stages and the option to aim for a stealth approach. Give it another chance, it's totally worth it!

I'm sure the SP is serviceable - I was mainly talking about four player split screen - it was really janky, and really hard to play.

People bought 360's because of Rare? Wow. I feel bad for them.

Yeah, this is the Wii remake remade. (Try saying that drunk). Decent news for HD console owners as it's a fairly good game, but more embarrassment for Nintendo.

Jim: This isn't the "Classic Nintendo 64 game," idiot. It's that shitty GoldenEye 007 game they put out for Wii last year, HD'd up so someone might actually buy it.

As several others have said, this is the HD upgrade of the Wii remake, not the N64 game. Jim, your news posting had been improving, but you not only missed this in the original news (and the official site links to IGN which has an article that outright says it is based on the Wii remake), you posted a comments reply *after* people had corrected you.

Plus, your comment reply does relate to the mistake. This isn't a case of people saying screaming for Goldeneye on next gen system and then turning their back when it was announced. This is a case of some people screaming for Goldeneye on next gen systems, then seeing that the Wii was getting a Call of Duty reskin called Goldeneye, and then seeing PS360 were getting an HD upgrade of Wii/CoD Goldeneye, and going "meh".

Not that there was ever a massive number of people wanting a new Goldeneye in the first place, and that market was as fractured as the Duke Nukem Forever market turned out to be (which has people who are indifferent, people who think DNF was a disgrace to the Duke legacy, and people who think DNF was a good.)


@NickCull
Why do you want MadWorld? It wasn't even particularly good. Besides, the PS360 are getting the spiritual sequel (and hopefully better) Anarchy Reigns.

He didn't make a mistake. He purposely wrote N64 version. He's trying to make the point that a remake of the N64 version would be the Wii version, because a remake with all the old levels and mechanics left as they are would be shit.

He's right. This is exactly what you all asked for. You just didn't know you didn't want it.

@Jim: Maybe people really did want a remake, but I highly doubt they want it done by Activision. Game was good when it was still in the hands of Rare and Nintendo rather then those dickheads at Activision.
