James Bond Goldeneye sequel/remake/update for the Wii!?

[the gamer]

Okay well I just saw this news and I have to say I am kinda excited. I miss my old N64 days of playing goldeneye I even played it about two years ago when I had my N64 hooked up. It took a while to get used to the graphics and to remember how to do the glitch of getting two different guns at the same time but it was still pretty fun for a little while.

I would like to see an updated version of this game since the last 007 game that I felt was really good was Nightfire for GameCube. Other then that there hasn't been many good ones.

So updated graphics and maybe more weapons then before and maybe more levels and characters and online multiplayer could be pretty fun in my opinion. What are your takes on it if there are any old N64 Goldeneye fans out there still?

The link is right here.

Goldeneye update/remake/sequel?

It's not as good as it sounds... it's more likely to be a sequel to Quantum of Solace gameplay-wise. I heard it's not that bad a game, but I'm sure most people would rather Microsoft and Nintendo would settle their differences and bring the original GoldenEye (and Perfect Dark for that matter) to the 360 and Wii with online multiplayer.

Well, Activision is apparently looking to take another stab at capturing the magic of the N64 classic by way of an update/remake/sequel.

As VG247 reports, a Eurocom staffer named Craig Peck recently saw his CV pop up online (it’s since been pulled), and apparently the following bit of experience was listed therein:
Eurocom Entertainment Software, Derby, United Kingdom
July 09 – Sept 09 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.
Oh come on! This will be the third GoldenEye game released before we see a single next-gen remake of James Bond Jr.? Unbelievable. Project Gotham Racing developer Bizarre Creations is currently working on the next Bond game (along with Blur), so Eurocom would most likely be working on porting the game to the Wii, similar to its porting work it did on last year’s Quantum of Solace.

Would you like to a full-blown GoldenEye sequel, or just an updated version of the original?

Well I can dream.

But yeah from what iv heard before and in the recent article I found at IGN its been stated that Rare said it has been way to long for them to start trying to get an agreement now or something along those lines.

Anyways new info or info that pertains to this I just found so here it is. Have a look if you like.

IGN article on Goldeneye 2010

What happened ages ago was that apparently they were about a week away from getting GoldenEye on both Wii and 360 when one side changed the goalposts. Since then it's been no turning back and the opportunity seems to have been missed. They've given up on it happening now...

September 21, 2009 - Any hope fans had of reliving gaming's glory days with a re-release of Rare's classic Goldeneye 007 title need to be put to rest.

On the company's reader mail 'Scribes' section, it was asked if an agreement could ever be reached to bring the title to Xbox Live Arcade or Wii's Virtual Console. Rare, very eloquently, gave the bad news.

"That was some time ago, my friend," it said. "Fate was against us that day. Destiny conspired to raise the hurdles even as we attempted to clear them, resulting in unpleasant groinal injury. I suspect we're long past the stage where an agreement was on the cards, but you never know. Stranger things have happened... somewhere... probably."

Rare has moved on, you should, too.

Yeah well I heard about that before from somewhere else. But I don't want a download version thats basically the same. I want an updated one with better graphics and more detail and more levels maybe and such. That is what im looking for. I can take out my N64 and play the old version whenever I want but I want new graphics and more detail and maybe more levels and maybe AI in the multiplayer that would be fun. Thats what they could do with a new one.

And in all cases if they do decide to make a remake or sequel of rogue agent they could at least completely re do it and make it a lot better with more guns and such.

I think what they should do is make an updated version for just the Xbox 360 and release the classic on Wii Shop, both would have online multiplayer. Or they could release both an updated version and a classic version on both Xbox 360 and Wii Shop and just have a demo to compare the features so if people want to take a stab at the updated version they can atleast get a demo to see if they like it before they blow some cash on it. But really in the end if I want to play Goldeneye I'll just hook up the ol N64 and get some guys to play it with me, the only way I would ever pay money for an updated version was if it totally blew the original out of the water and was just as amazing. But I highly doubt it will happen seeing as the only good 007 games were made 2 generations ago.

i quite honestly think developers need to stop trying to make a successor to Goldeneye and just take there time on making a new james bond game that doesn't suck, heck they could take a cue from Fallout 3 on that, make a james bond game with RPG elements, dialogue usage, every action has a consequence. That would make things a bit interesting, i love goldeneye, but i think its time for the developers to stop trying to make a Successor to it, and like i said just take there time with it.
