The first comment says it all for me, and sums up my exact reaction:

"A new golden eye" = OMG!

"for the Wii and DS" = Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[Lanzo]

That's awesome, but I feel the same way. Who wants to play goldeneye on a ds? And the wii? Hopefully I can use my gamecube controllers instead or I might just pass this up.

I think it might be an on-rails/light gun shooter instead of a FPS. I generally like those games on the Wii, but they might as well just make a new Bond game if they're going that route, especially if Brosnan is going to be subsitiuted with Craig.

The game is supposedly being developed by n-Space and Eurocom

Screw it then. Nothing to get excited about. n-Space hasn't developed anything noteworthy aside from Geist, and even that game was meh.

Ruining the GoldeneEye name once wasn't enough?

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

Any Goldeneye game that isn't under development by the Free Radical team responsible for the Timesplitters series is guaranteed to disappoint.

Everything that everybody really loved about Goldeneye went with David Doak when he left Rare and formed Free Radical.

Even Perfect Dark on the N64 while good didn't QUITE match the overall feel of Goldeneye without the core dev input of Doak and Co.

If we never get a Timesplitters 4 the spirit of the Goldeneye games died a noble death with Timesplitters Future Perfect (mainly the day they shut down the online servers).

If it's the same game with Wii controls, I don't see the problem.

Despite being put on hold, Timesplitters 4 is still coming! It better, at least. Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect were the main reason that FPSes stayed alive on Gamecube.

Crytek UK shelved the game until there is a "good time" to release it, so who knows when and if it'll even come out.

I seriously doubt we'll ever see Timesplitters 4 or Battlefront 3.

This isn't really a rumor anymore.....it's going to happen. But I'm also disappointed that despite everything Activision went thru initially to try and get this game released on the Wii and 360--they have now settled on releasing it on the Wii and Ds instead(just to appease Nintendo). Considering it's a shooter game, they get an epic fail for that. Neither the Wii or Ds can handle shooters the way the 360 can.

I'm curious to see what specially gets added to this remake, such as multiplayer. I'm guessing it will have some sort of cross compatibility between the Wii and Ds. But ultimately I'm not very pumped for this game considering the platforms it's limited to.

Wtf this ain't no remake! It's a new game. I have been bambozzled!

That

In recent discussions with people about games that I found to be insulting to a franchise or video game legacy, Rogue Agent came in at number one. Just a mediocre James Bond game with the GoldenEye name slapped on for quick profit. Toying with peoples feelings of nostalgia; Being a parasite on greatness.

I think you mean "Twice"... Goldeneye: Source wasn't really very good.

At least it's not a shameless cash-in.

Some good things can still spring from Goldeneye.

It's not going to be a remake. It's a new title based on the same movie property as the N64 game.

is there really anything else anyone else can say?

in my book, its just another piece of shovel ware.

[swlovinist]

Yet another Bond game = crap

Goldeneye remake =

Goldeneye remake with wii controls =

Goldeneye remake on the DS = meh

Screw it, I am going to just bust out Goldeneye on the N64 and not wait for some company to f it up.

That's not what the OP says.

[alec006]

Hmm Goldeneye remake thats actually the same levels as the original...GREAT...Daniel Craig as Bond in them...NOOO...seriously they can't get Pierce to voice act in a video game,he did it in Everything Or Nothing! I guess we shaw see what they have in store for us,this better be good Activision!
