How do you think they were making the XBLA version?

So that means possibly bc. I hope they sell the reloaded digital version for XBSX sooner rather than never or much much later…

The almost-completed Xbox 360 version leaked like six months ago. It works well on an Xbox 360 emulator for what it is worth.

This seems like one of those games that would be best left to fond memories.

I think this thread could use a renaming.

I’m curious about this at least. Like many others I played the original game a bunch back in the day. I haven’t played it in years, and like a lot of the games from the N64 era it may not hold up the best, but with the updates maybe it could be fun. Have to see how it turns out if it’s actually happening.

An official Goldeneye port/remake will likely never happen. The rights are too complicated for what would likely be too little return.
However, Goldeneye Source, which is a Half Life mod that can be played on steam, is a blast. It's all the fun of the original GoldenEye, but without the crummy graphics and archaic controls. Seriously, trying to play the original today is almost impossible unless you haven't played an fps since the 90's.
*Edit* didn't realize people actually think this is close to happening. Figured this was all just old data. Could be fun if done right.

It's new because the Achievements add up to 1000 and XBLA games were limited to 200 back when this Goldeneye Remake was being developed.

Isn't Goldeneye Source the multi-player part only? No emulation of the single-player campaign portion of the original game I mean.

With the weird rights issue this title has been dealing with for many, many years, I have to assume that this was a concession that Nintendo demanded to allow the game to be imported to the Xbox.
The Nintendo version will have online play

If you don’t have Gamepass and you want to buy game on Xbox, you can purchase the digital copy of Rare Replay and you get Goldeneye 007 for free.

When is this out? I believe I bought the rare replay. I think just for Conker’s Bad Day whatever. I remember it didn’t play the same.
i can’t wait for this. Never played but heard great things. As classic as Halo.
