I know what you're thinking. You're thinking that you have no freakin' idea who Craig Peck is. Neither do I. But he did us all a favor by listing that he had worked on the Wii version of GoldenEye in his CV.
Animator Craig Peck was working on GoldenEye 2010 for the Wii all summer this year:
Animator – GoldenEye 2010 (Wii)
Animator on Activision’s James Bond series for the Nintendo Wii assisting in: Key frame animation, the preparation and clean-up of motion capture data, prop animation, in-game cut-scene animation, scene layout, and camera animation.
He did this while working at Eurocom. Eurocom has done porting of other games before, so it may be that they are doing this for Bond now.
Thanks, Peck!

So XBLA gets Perfect Dark and the Wii gets GoldenEye? Oh I smell a fanboy war a-comin'.
W00T! I've been bored all day! Wii bashing GO!
While the PS3 is getting ....ehhh....Banjo Tooie
What you mean the ps3is dead again??
PS2 never had a Goldeneye game. Your'e thinking of Tomorrow Never Dies or The World Is Not Enough.
Also, ACTIVISION'S James Bond series? Yea, this definitely isn't the N64 game.
OH YEAH! That game!
I remember the hype around that game. *sigh* Hilarious. I miss last gen EA and their failed attempts at appealing to...well...everyone.
All my N64 controllers are worn out... so it's time to kick some ass in Complex once again.
ROFL @ Phoenix Gamma
I actually own a copy of rogue agent for my DS >_<
That game is just awful.
Wii gets Goldeneye.
While I love FPS controls on the Wii, Perfect Dark running at 60 fps is so far more superior, it's not even funny.
1. GoldenEye 007 was developed by Rare before it was wholly acquired by Microsoft
2. GoldenEye: Rogue Agent was developed and published by EA.
3. Currently, Activision holds the license to develop new James Bond games, but that doesn't give them the rights to past James Bond games.
So what the hell could "Activision's James Bond 2010" possibly be? Either this is a completely new game developed by Activision using their license, or somehow the legal shit got sorted out and Activision, under the rights of their license, are remaking GoldenEye for the Wii.
Also, it is likely a new game that will attempt to capitalize on the nostalgia of GoldenEye 64.
If Quantum of Solace is any indication as to what Activision has in store for a James Bond Wii shooter, though, than the only type of hype generated will be based on chortles rather than anticipation.
you see it was Nintendo that developed 007 for the n64 and they paid for rare to help them on it.
so rare was working without any rights to that game what so ever, it was nintendo that had the rights/credit and rights to the graphics and sound.
yes Activision has the rights to that game but if nintendo asked them or paid them enough they can get permission.
Rare unlike Nintendo does not even have Developing rights/ money, so yeah it will probably never come out on 360 without Nintendo making a lot of money.
Rare did claim to have a working XBLA GoldenEye prototype however. Without The Big N's approval isn't even a closed prototype illegal?
Then again, this is really good news for Wii owners.
What the hell's wrong with you people? Even the damn PS3 got attacked already? Where'd that come from?
So it's probably a sequel/followup to that rogue agent crap. Which is too bad; the granddaddy of console FPS on wii-mote could be entertaining.
I can see Activision trying to capitalize on the nostalgia we all have for the original game.
Which is what GohanGVO said.
This comment is now useless.
Goddammit. :<
I'm torn on this. If it's the N64's GoldenEye, then I want it so much, but...if it's being published/developed by Activision, then I want nothing to do with it.
Why does life taunt me like this?
I consider myself a Nintendo fanboy, but I find it fully comprehensible. GoldenEye is an easier license to acquire than Rareware's originals now.
Rare did claim to have a working XBLA GoldenEye prototype however. Without The Big N's approval isn't even a closed prototype illegal?"
no, if they have not sold it. Other wise you would find a lot of simular law suits against many Source MOD makers aka 007 mod perfect dark mod.
it is not elligal if you build it from the base up for just a beta that is not going out to the public for money.
Also I smell that Microsoft my have made a deal with Nintendo to get Perfect Dark without any law suits for giving Nintendo 007 without bothering them
( since in fact Micrsoft really owns most of PD, and Nintendo owns most of 007 the game it makes even )
personaly I like Perfect dark better, mainly because there were bots and tons of custimiztion and saving that 007 really lacked.
But hey I will admit I own a wii and really don't care what happens eather way cause I can just emulate it on my computer and make it look like a sega dreamcast game.
Myself I prefer Perfect Dark to GoldenEye but don't have a X360, and although I have both on the N64, going back and playing with that controller can be quite a challenge.
