To those who were getting their hopes up for a great bond experience.... Sorry. It seems like they took some Liberties with the Bond licence, and not in a good way. Waiting for the Meta critic score...but so far all the current reviews are pretty horrible. Here is IGN's review to get you started.

It's a shame that on Bond's 50th anniversary, it gets a crap game. :(

Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

Shame about this game. Was so looking forward to it.

Ah, well. I can always cancel the pre-order and use that money towards something else.

The ones on the PS2 were good. I haven't played GoldenEye.

If you do, it would be a step to play the original, then play the Wii/PS3/360 remake. Either way, it's a great game.

Hey, Goldeneye Wii/Reloaded, Everything or Nothing, and Nightfire would like to have a word with you.

To be honest, I've seen some gameplay videos and it looks amazing. I think it got the crap reviews because of the...

GRAPHICS :D! I love the game.

Hmmm... Looks like I'll have to employ my old tactic of buying Bond games when they are cheap. Works everytime.

Be wary, the suck is coming.

Actually, if you'd even bothered to read the review, it had many more issues past graphics.
  • Didn't get original voice actors, or people who even sounded remotely close to the original ones
  • Sloppy driving mechanics
  • Took way too many liberties with the movies
  • Boss fights were turned into a garbled mess tied up with Punch-Out!! and a quick-time event
Just a shame, really. I'll probably follow suit with Mignaga and just buy it when it's down to like $20 or something.

Well that's sad, these were the same people that made the Goldeneye 007 reboot on Wii in 2010 right?

There hasn't been a decent Bond experience since the PS2 days. If only EA still owned the Bond franchise.

If only Nintendo still owned Rare, and THEY were allowed to create Bond games. There would be our exclusive shooter.

If they were still with Nintendo, they would've gone down the same path: they lost everyone worth having that didn't leave after Goldeneye after Conkers Bad Fur Day. The only difference would be Nintendo owning Rares ips like Banjo and Conker.

Meh... Bayonetta 2 announced as an exclusive didn't really excite me.
