Activision GoldenEye game in November News

Wii DS News by Tom Bramwell

Today 14:45
Eurogamer has learned that Activision is working on a James Bond: GoldenEye title for Wii and DS that should be released this November.
The new title may be a remake of the classic Nintendo 64 first-person shooter, originally developed by Rare, and according to our source the publisher intends to unveil it at E3.
Development duties have been split between UK-based Eurocom and US-based n-Space.
Eurocom has previously worked on James Bond titles during the franchise's time at E3, including the N64 title The World Is Not Enough.
Activision has been widely tipped to make a new GoldenEye game after it was spotted registering domain names derived from the name of the 1995 film. The original game is considered the best of a (mostly bad) Bond bunch.
Earlier this week it was spotted surveying gamers about a possible remake.
The Wii/DS GoldenEye title should not be confused with the Bizarre Creations game, thought to be called James Bond: Bloodstone, which is expected to focus on the driving side of the spy's skill-set.
We spoke to Activision but nobody was in a position to comment.

The game will ship with one brand new level and a few new multiplayer maps, then they will charge the standard $15 per remade level and remade multiplayer map from the original Goldeneye.

dam, goldeneye needs to be live or psn to get a good online play going

This cant be a true remake, because even though Activision may hold the movie rights, and thus can make a new Goldeneye game, they couldn't really use the level designs/etc that Rare did.

Yeah, it's probably going to be another Rogue Agent effort.

Use the Goldeneye name to cash in and await disappointment from everyone. Even if it does follow the movie, it's not going to be the game we know and love.

It's so good that no one has been able to make a good FPS for it yet out of the few who have even bothered trying.

As predicted, they fucking ruined it

GoldenEye For Wii Is A Remake With Some Asterisks

My Activision boycott should cover me... what about you? Are you going to let this happen to the greatest FPS of all time?

let what happen? ruined how?

the draw of this game is the splitscreen and delicious wii controls, who cares if the campaign isn't a shot for shot remake (which would suck)
