It's a good year to own a Wii

Awesome. Looks like it'd be a great game if it were to just be on 360.

i was initially excited when i heard the news, but its been stated this wont be a retro redux but a modern reimagining (for better or for worse, whichever way you take that)...and it is, after all, a fps on the wii. i'll cross my fingers for the retro goldeneye on xbla, though (which did get the old skool perfect dark recently).

GOLDEN! ...EYE!

Schaef... two words that might dampen your excitement for this..


REGENERATING HEALTH.

It's not a pure port. Lets hope they don't ruin it.

Because it takes a LOT of the challenge out. Shield belts didn't regenerate. When you were stuck with one bar of health left on the last few levels... on the hardest difficulty.... good luck. Now you just hide and your health is filled.

yeah, like i said, its not going to be what most people expect, it wont be a pure port...i recall them saying something to the effect that goldeneye set the standard for multi back in the day, but times have changed with fps', so they have to adapt with it and make a different game from the original.

still, many current fps games have regenerating health (cod, battlefield, halo, etc) but in most cases since health is naturally low to begin with, only in the most lucky of cases will it actually matter. hopefully this will follow suit.

haha, the klobb...i remember that weapon. i thought it was a real russian weapon. i was also very fond of the rcp90.

It's a contemporary FPS design: no health pick-ups. Instead, you take cover to get your health to regenerate.

Sounds like like full health regeneration.

... I don't see the word "full".  What makes it sound like that to you?  Do CoD or Battlefield regen full health at all times?

First game I played with regen was Pariah and it was only partial.

Yes, CoD4 regenerates back to full health after a few seconds.

And of course we know, everyone hated that game.

People seem to be losing sight of the most important part, here...

GOL-DEN...

... EEEYYYYYYEEEEEEEE.

but goldeneye rogue agent blew chunks.

Which "other game" did you think I was referring to?

Yes, but Goldeneye: Rogue Agent was also completely unrelated to the original game except in name.  The trailer alone shows a lot of homage paid to the original story and gameplay.

Remake does not always mean its going to be as good as the original. Hollywood has many many many examples of this.

Am I saying its GOING to be bad? No. Is it going to be the exact same game? No. So... I'm cautiously optimistic about this game.

i sincerely hope it will be good though. at least modernize it and add perks and loadouts...k? after all, all the games nowadays are doing it...*cough cough battlefield, bioshock 2 multi, transformers: war for cyberton, even blur*
