I'm interested in this, depending on what movies they choose to pull the missions/action scenes from.
The multiplayer was fantastic in Nightfire, I really liked EoN as well although I didn't play multiplayer in that.
You're crazy. Goldeneye Wii was one of the best FPS games this gen.

$10 bet the game releases 1 week prior to COD BLOPS release date (Sent out to die)
So 11/6 or 11/13 for BLOPS 2
1 week before that, 007 releases

Didn't Agent Under Fire have the grappling hook?

All of the "re-imagined" characters in the remake were terrible. Too be fair though, how does one go about improving or at the very least make characters that are as interesting and iconic as the ones in Goldeneye?
That was a real problem. Game was still fun. just didn't have the same emotional connection as I did with the previous game.
Nightfire as well.

Hype through the roof. I wish they had given us a PC port of 007 Goldeneye.
How bad is Bloodstone? I kinda want to try it simply because it's Bizaar's last game.
Also the PS3 demo of the remake of Goldeneye didn't completely sell me on it. Was it a decent after the demo level? Because it just felt like Quantum of Solace, which wasn't bad... but wasn't that great (especially in multiplayer. Sup Shotguns are Top Tier?) either.

Bloodstone is pure popcorn fun.
Goldeneye gets and stays really good after the demo bit.

Oh gawd, I'm an awful human being, but my hype for the game shot through the roof.. only with a paragraph.
Blood Stone peaks with the opening mission, which is a thrilling level with boat chase, car chase and I believe an aerial chase as well.
Once you get past that, its a maddening 3rd person shooter with some terrible mechanics... why the hell can I not aim my gun while in cover >.<
The game also ends on a cliffhanger of sorts, which honestly will never be resolved
And the multi community was pretty dead
Guess I'll have to track down a copy of both. Playing Blur casually recently reminded me that I wanted to try Bloodstone in the day and I saw this thread so I figured I'd just ask.
I understand why they do it 1)He is current Bond 2)I assume it costs a pretty penny to license the other guys' likeness/voices.
But it would be awesome if they pulled an Arkham City and allow you to go through the game in different Bond skins.

Fucking DITTO! Maybe if this does well enough they'll release Goldeneye. (lol Activision)

No Moonraker laser?
There's a laser but it doesn't look like the one in the movie.

Looks pretty sweet. Hope the rumours this is coming to Wii U are accurate.

Well, that pretty much ruins the whole thing for me.
It could have been worse. James Bond as portrayed by Nolan North! Or David Hayter
That would be too cool..GOLDENEYE!? WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT GOLDENEYE!?
This is a bit of a kick in the nuts, I guess it makes sense, but Skyfall mission is post-launch DLC.. free.. but still not there day 1

Is this releasing ahead of the Skyfall film? That could be the reason why.

It also doubles as new copy incentive on consoles.

Second movie up.. On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

I like these choices
From a game industry standpoint, they are picking movies with interesting locales/environments/setting, which is for the best.
Sure the story will be a mess.
Eurocom
They did it with Goldeneye Wii/ReLoaded
I picked it up on the cheap recently just because it was Bizarres last game. As mentioned above, the opening level has all the makings of a great Bond game, but then it falls apart. There is the odd great Bond moment thrown in (Think I just passed the 4th or 5th mission
infiltrating the mansion where a party is being held. You scan guards for codes, get access to safe.

not that they had much choice, but YAY.

The question is, we will have main theme revisions for every movie in the game, like the one in Goldeneye 007? Because that one was fantastic.
This entire thread just reminds me I need to finally finish Everything or Nothing.
I have not outright disliked any of the Craig-bond games (did not play Blood Stone), but keep feeling they are just not quite there yet.
If I can have a moonraker laser shoot-out in that high-ceilined black rock chamber of Hugo Drax's, or a bobsled chase after Blofeld, or exploring Scaramanga's island lair, would go a long way. But as the Bond franchise itself has changed from the days of world-conquering megalomaniacs and secret lairs, obviously the game adaptations lose that too.
I like this Legends idea - too bad they won't make a straight-up adaptation for XBLA / PSN of each Bond film for $5-$7 each. Of course the public response if "Octopussy" was adapted would be great.

It is as close to Tina Turner's greatness as it could be. What an awesome revision (and credit sequence) in that game.
OHMSS would be really hard because I thought that whole theme was without lyrics?

Yup, it's without lyrics
Also, pretty excited about this news as it's one of my fav Bond films

If you like stealth gameplay. I'd say it's a steal at $20 or less.

its just the Wii one in HD? I would say pass. Damn I woulda like to seen Free Radical make it as was supposedly originally planned. Or the XBLA faithful remake that Rare themselves made. A man can dream...
That was one of the biggest surprises to me when I played it on 360. The stealth levels/sections were actually fairly good and fit within the framework of the story.
I blew through the game pretty quickly on a rental, even beat it on 007 (very hard, thankfully as 007 should be). This thread has me thinking I should pick it up again.

Meh, I liked that Eurocom put their own spin on it. The gunplay was tight, the stealth functioned well and they turned the original levels a lot more interesting from a visual and gameplay standpoint.
It's the Wii game in HD and 60fps (more or less), which makes a huge difference IMO considering how awful the framerate could get in the Wii version.

propellerheads did a good version of the OHMSS theme. 'We Have All The Time In The World' performed by Louis Armstrong was an original song written for the film too, so they could always go with that.
