The sound track of this game was a masterpiece, and amazing achievement on the N64. Not to mention the game itself. Spend so many hours in multiplayer mode.
Oh yeah amazing sound especially when you're have a surround sound system. Dobly Digital, And Dobly 6.1 surround! Let's not forget my homemade 2 15-in subwoofer and also the front, 12-in woofers from pioneer. 24 band, equalizer with spectrum analyzer. My goodness you can tailor the sound. But anyhow I sure do miss the old school games.
I remember playing this and thinking "I can't imagine video games ever looking more realistic". I remember waiting for X-Mas to get this game a literally dreaming about it.

True Legion. Don’t know what Bee is talking about. The AI soon after in Perfect Dark was decent, ramp it up on difficulty and it was great. Better than most modern games. The AI is still terrible today in many. Games in recent years have only upped graphics and rag doll physics. But then Rare did a decent test of flying objects in the mind control game (Second sight?).
Honestly, I don't understand why almost no other games have implemented the same context sensitive bullet shot reactions. I always thought that was such a satisfying thing and assumed most shooters going forward would just make that the default.
If you knew anyone that had an N64 back in those days they owned 2 games above all else - GoldenEye and Ocarina of Time. Man was this video a hell of a waltz down memory lane.
@@lordfuckwad any other opinion that names another cheat as harder to unlock is full of crap! I still can't do it to this day, after 24 years.

Remember how crazy this game was with Gameshark? Having like 5 guys over for sleepovers and playing this on friday nights was all we ever needed. Good times!
Get yourself on eBay and pick yourself up a N64, and then have some mates round with some pizza and beer. Within 10 minutes you'll forget about the blocky characters and weird controls and just slip back into it.
Seems literally everything now is a "should have", but won't and never will because corporations now 100% control and dictate absolutely everything in every industry. Craft, art, passionate creativity etc are no longer at all needed by these industries, as modern software and tech allows them to just easily churn out products for quick and easy profiteering, and the profit margins are all important, so putting any real effort into things is not wanted anymore, where it in fact used to be often necessary for anything to be really big for profits.
I remember playing this in late 90's on the Nintendo64 with friends at home. It was the first FPS with Split-screen multiplayer! Very nice too see it remastered!
This game occupied a lot of time in my childhood. So nostalgic to see it again. and this is the remastered version. Even though this looks bad the actual original version looks super bad and blurry lol. Dnt remembers it looking so bad. we thought those graphics was something back then lol. I'm 34 now that seems like a lifetime ago. I still remember each level too for the most part. Another good one that hits the spot of nostalgia for me is Perfect Dark and umm maybe donkey kong.
As a kid the graphics in perfect dark blew me away. I also loved the sound design. This is a small thing but actually hearing your characters footsteps sound different on different surfaces was so immersive. The lighting was also a step ahead of Goldeneye. I still jam to those games soundtracks, goldeneye & perfect dark have bangin OST’s
I really like how the enemies slowly roll from side to side without any tactical advantage. As a kid i found this to be super cool, today i really have to laugh.
Somehow this is the way I thought it looked when I played it the first time… (I tried to replay it a few months ago with my old N64 and… well thanks mate for this!)
I remember borrowing this game from a friend when I was like 7 or 8 years old, as my mom wouldn't let me buy it. She was a bit annoyed, but she let me play it as long as she could watch. Dad on the other hand didn't give a crap, he'd happily play multiplayer with me lol
If they remade it just like this for Playstation and Xbox id totally would play this none stop just like I did on n64. This is what a remake should be like
I’m enjoying it on game pass and the Switch but definitely wish they had released this version instead it’s superior with the upgraded graphics and 60 fps from what I’m hearing too.
I'm pretty nostalgic for the original graphics but the Surface levels look much, much better. Those were the most aesthetically distressing levels in the original.
It took me a good 30 minutes to realize that I'd been staring at the screen with a stupid smile on my face. I like that they change from the new to the old graphics because I forget that I'm watching the new one because I guess I just remembering it looking this good. If you were around back then, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
i actually played this game so much i can still remember each level now im 35, this level for instance i played so much to make it harder for me id say "i wonder if i can go through this whole level by only doing one shot head shots" and i did you know. lol.
The AK47 was a coloured pencil, the sniper rifle was a super soaker and the grenade launcher was a cake decorator thingy, ah good times as a kid, one of the greatest games of all time.
This game came out at the ideal time and flexed the muscles of what the N64 could do at the time. Many of us were still playing Doom, Duke Nukem, Shadow Warrior, Blood, and Quake. Then this game absolutely blew our minds.
As a kid I used to copy the death animations whenever we would play tag with toy guns, we all would My favorite was the "ugh" headshot drop to both knees and face plant

@@NonsensicalSpudz Doom was out in 1993, Quake was 1996 and Wolfenstein 1992, so they were all before Goldeneye. It was a different game to those though in any case.

It still remains a phenomenal game to this day in my opinion.
The Reduced draw distances of the n64 really made the levels feel much larger. Kind of shocking realizing how small they actually were and how quickly they get beaten.
Especially on the Surface levels. It felt like a thick fog that made wandering around the level much more eerie and nerve wracking. I think the remastered version loses something in that instance.

It was supposed to, but the rights for the game were jumbled up between Rare (Microsoft), MGM (Rights-holders to the James Bond IP), Nintendo (publishers of the original game on N64) and Activision (then license holders of all James Bond video games in the 2000s). The video you’re seeing now was leaked from an unknown source on the internet, meaning there isn’t a legitimate way to play it.
My brother borrowed this game from a friend and after I watched him play, I was obsessed with it. I ended up buying it with my pocket money as a child and it was and still is, my favourite game. I loved how each level was different and the objectives were challenging and fun to get through. As a child, I probably loved this game too much and would day dream occasionally at school about it lol. However I had lots of good memories. My brother and I had heaps of fun playing around with all the cheats and I vividly remember the naibiting moments when he was trying to complete the last levels in order to unlock the secret levels right at the end. I think he replayed the cradle again and again until he gave up lol.
Can you believe that I have never played this game as a single player? I've spent HUNDREDS (thousands, maybe...?) of hours playing the multiplayer with friends, but I have NEVER played one single level in this game, and I've owned it since it came out.
There is a rumour that the original N64 game is about to be released on XBOX. There are leaked achievements already out there. But it's NOT believed to be this remake finally getting an official release at last.
I read a rumor and I don't see it being creditable but I heard that Nintendo cannot release their side of the deal until they get Goldeneye unbanned from Germany. It sounds 100% bullshit but that's the rumor going around.
What I always found so funny about this game was that Bond was a spy first, and did lots of tricky spy things. Very little running and gunning, yet this game has almost no spy things and is ALL running and gunning.
He was a spy who went around using the same name, strolled into the villain's office and told them this name, and then got caught and had to shoot his way out every single time. So in some respects, it's... still correct in tone.
That's the thing with most 007 games. It's hard to convey the spy aspect without including the guns blazing moments from Bond finales like Majesties, Spy, TND, and others because it's so much fun. Some Bond games did the aspect well like Agent Under fire and Nightfire with stealth missions
No spy things? Are you joking? The game was designed to allow for both speed runs (run and gun) and more stealthy approaches. The Bunker levels are the ultimate examples of that. It was actually one of the first (if not THE first) first person shooters to NOT be all about running and gunning.
1:06:00 One thing that's definitely an improvement is how the bottom glass is see through. The most nerve racking thing about the Protect Natalya objective was not knowing when those glass panels would shatter and Natalya would become mincemeat.
Always wondered as a kid why he jumped head first down a dam and survived. Then seeing the film later I realised they just hadn't modelled-in the bungee rope.
@@guillaumedelisle-viger5699 I preferred these games mission structures to doom. Levels were smaller and missions more spy like. Doom (and turok) felt like a slog and a puzzle with long levels
Im a little disappointed the remaster isnt the one released. But still thrilled to have GoldenEye again. Idk why the reviews are shit though. This and FF7 were the top games if I remember correctly when they both came out the same year
When I was a kid, I thought the sniper rifle looked like a super soaker. I had no idea that was a scope on top. I thought it was a water container.
The Soviet AK looked like a giant black art pencil to me as a kid fr

2 of the best classic shooters 👌👍
I remember this game 11/10
The music in this game is just awesome and mood setting.
pencil gun actually looks like an AK
There is a rumour that the original N64 game is about to be released on XBOX. There are leaked achievements already out there.
But it's NOT believed to be this remake finally getting an official release at last.
I assume it will be remastered even more, since the product was leaked, I will call them lazy if they release the leaked product as is!
I read a rumor and I don't see it being creditable but I heard that Nintendo cannot release their side of the deal until they get Goldeneye unbanned from Germany. It sounds 100% bullshit but that's the rumor going around.
@@Seriona1 For your info, this actually happened recently here in Germany. The game is now unbanned.
Even in HD, Sean Bean dying never gets old!
the new XBLA visual makeover looks absolutely breathtaking
I don't understand why they didn't do a release like this for modern consoles.
What I always found so funny about this game was that Bond was a spy first, and did lots of tricky spy things. Very little running and gunning, yet this game has almost no spy things and is ALL running and gunning.
He was a spy who went around using the same name, strolled into the villain's office and told them this name, and then got caught and had to shoot his way out every single time.
So in some respects, it's... still correct in tone.
That's the thing with most 007 games. It's hard to convey the spy aspect without including the guns blazing moments from Bond finales like Majesties, Spy, TND, and others because it's so much fun.
Some Bond games did the aspect well like Agent Under fire and Nightfire with stealth missions
No spy things? Are you joking? The game was designed to allow for both speed runs (run and gun) and more stealthy approaches. The Bunker levels are the ultimate examples of that.
It was actually one of the first (if not THE first) first person shooters to NOT be all about running and gunning.
This game is a classic!!!!
Now we need a remaster of the remaster!
Only Xbox can do it
I like how the sniper functions in semi auto but is now bolt action
This music is burned into my soul.amazing game
That pause screen music was low key lit af tho. Heck even the gameplay music was lit!
A game that will never die in my memory
Your carrots in your fridge are mouldy.

I was expecting this when they released it on game pass.
Sigh
Dang, this actually looks really good. 😂😂😂😂
1:06:00 One thing that's definitely an improvement is how the bottom glass is see through. The most nerve racking thing about the Protect Natalya objective was not knowing when those glass panels would shatter and Natalya would become mincemeat.
I love how you can switch graphics like you can with Halo.
It's kinda cool how this game held up after all these years, there was just nothing like it at the time. Plus the ragdoll effects were decent too
It’s a top 5 n64 game
LMAO you are smoking something. their was no ragdoll effects in this game it was all prerendered death scenes
@@anthonyquintana7678 It did have the best character animations of any FPS, at the time.
Always wondered as a kid why he jumped head first down a dam and survived. Then seeing the film later I realised they just hadn't modelled-in the bungee rope.
This remaster looks pretty awesome.
Also, can you still "Get Down?"😂
When I play this game first time I had 4year old.. I remember this time ! Thanks you bro !
God tier editing skills.
This game is the definition of "ahead of it's time"
In many ways, yes...but don't forget who came before, an obscure game called Doom! 😆
@@guillaumedelisle-viger5699 I preferred these games mission structures to doom.
Levels were smaller and missions more spy like. Doom (and turok) felt like a slog and a puzzle with long levels
Strange how the sniper has no silencer now.
shame that this never actually got released it would've been the best port/version to play to just play
I thought it was Harry Potter at 1:02
Im a little disappointed the remaster isnt the one released. But still thrilled to have GoldenEye again. Idk why the reviews are shit though. This and FF7 were the top games if I remember correctly when they both came out the same year
I never wanted a game so badly ...I was sooo mad I didn't have N64 at the time of release.
Awesome! I'm replaying it now on Nintendo Switch Online. what a game!
While I love the work done in the "Surface" level, I do have to ask why you decided to change the sky and/or the weather?
The soundtrack is so dope
Very cool remaster, looks great. I do get a kick out of the left hand bolt action rifle that shoots semi auto. :D
Beautifully captured and edited , lovely job
Thought we were getting this but they couldn’t be bothered to make some Actual improvements
