Goldeneye Wii - Anyone got it? (Got surprisingly good reviews)

[jonebone]

Goldeneye on N64 will always be my favorite game ever, so of course I was skeptical when I heard about the remake. I figured it would fall way short and just earn a ton of sales based on the name alone. I was expecting a 6-7ish game out of 10.

Most of the reviews I've read have put it at 8.5-9 / 10 and it's definitely earning my interest. They say if you go into this game expecting a new adventure and appreciate all of the references to the original, you'll love it. But if you go into it expecting the original adventure then you'll be disappointed.

I'm thinking about picking it up after work even if I don't have a ton of time to play it this week. Anyone here already got a copy?

Yes, I picked it up yesterday, but I too have little time. I may get to play it today, or at least watch my brother play it. I may not start until I get my new wii on sunday. Def. excited though.

I don't get why people hate this so much. I view this as friiging awesome because it's like a more complete version (just look at all the unused objects in 007N64!).

Speaking as a Bond fan, having Daniel Craig in the game of a movie Pierce Brosnan starred in.

I'm enjoying it so far. Playing with Wiimote and nunchuck, couldn't stand the classic controller. Solid game, though I must suck, because I am dying way too many times. Looking forward to putting in some multiplayer this weekend.

Are the classic multiplayer maps there?

Seems a bit steep at $50, but I'm still keeping this one on my radar.

Do the Nunchuck/wiimote work well with it? I would rather just buy the game without the "Classic controller".

Picked up the LE with the golden Classic Controller Pro. Terrific game, both online and off. Like was already said - if you're expecting a remake of the N64 classic, you'll be disappointed. It's an amazingly solid and enjoyable game though.

I hope to get this soon.

BTW, you can pick up the Collector's Edition at Kmart with the gold classic controller included for free.
