    A mí parecer el mejor Resident Evil de todos, aunque cambio el modo de juego haciendo que fuera más acción que terror, no evito que el juego logrará hacerte sentir tenso en muchas situaciones.

    F**k Halo and all other shooter genres (except Wolfenstein) this is the perfect shooter game it is just nearly perfect. I really like the in game cheats because 00 Agent is pretty hard. The James Bond genre is pretty good at all but this is by far the best Shooter Game before Goldeneye on Wii

    It was the first FPS I ever played and personally I think it still holds up. Is it a better to game to let’s say Half-Life? No but the nostalgia and fun I have with this games makes up for that and more. If you haven’t played this game, check it out, it’ll be worth your while.

    What a legendary and classic FPS, another masterpiece from the golden-age of Nintendo. I recently played through the game again, on the Switch, and I have to say, it still holds up really well. Multiplayer is a blast and the campaign is phenomenal.

    Criou o gênero FPS de tiro, com a melhor trilha sonora que escutará em jogos de ação, pode apostar comigo uma coxinha e um caldo de cana se existe um jogo de agente secreto melhor que esse. Nem sei quem é Hitman. James Bond passa o vraú em todos.
    Nota Final: 9,6

    Calidad por donde se lo mire este juego, misiones entretenidas, el uso de sus recursos (mando y hardware) llevados a increíbles y epicidad por donde se la mira, además de retante. El multijugador es increíblemente entretenido con variedad de mapas y armas, además de perfecta para usar todo tipo de estrategia contra los contrincantes.

    This is the most important FPS in console gaming history. An absolute masterpiece and the original console FPS. Every console FPS you play today has its origins in this game.

    A challenging, exciting, near realistic singleplayer mode and fun multiplayer mode. I would give this game a 9.6, but it wont let me, I just wish i still had it...(SIGH).

    Goldeneye certainly lives up to its FPS legend status and is a must for all shooter fans. Where shall i start? Satisfying if basic level design, superb graphics, AI which tries very hard and has some devekopers personality, great gadgets that dont hold your hand and let you use your imagination, excellent replay value with a still fun 4 player mode, cheeky and fun feedback from your HQ.

Overall this game puts most last gen ( xbox / ps2 ) games to shame. Its not all great tho' - Weapons are quite poorly weighted ( a pistol will kill quicker than an AK47 or M16 ), there's certainly linearity of play which may put people off, its a bit too easy and some levels take only 3 mins to finish--and thats not a speed run attempt!! Overall a 94% personal score for me. This game has a lot of personality and is a must for any gamer, including all next gen boys looking for a satisfying blast of FPS heaven.… Expand

    This game hasn't aged as well as I would have expected, but in its day it set the bar for FPS games. I spent countless hours playing multiplayer against my siblings and cousins, or dicking around with cheats in single player (oh the nostalgia!). As a big fan of James Bond--and Goldeneye in particular--I was disappointed by the VERY week story in the game, but the gameplay more than made up for it.

The graphics are my only complaint but not for a bad reason, the graphics get the job done and are decent (even by the N64's standards) but thats it which is slightly disapointing for an otherwise perfect game. Then there's the multiplayer which is the main reason this game is so popular, with four player split screen and loads of great maps playing them felt awesome and unique, unlike modern game's online maps which feel to familiar and boring. Other all this game is one of the best ever for it's time and even now it's easy to enjoy.… Expand

Ricocheting bullets, the clinky-clonky noise of footsteps just gives this first-person game that feeling of elegance and there is enough content even on 'Agent' difficulty to keep players occupied for a decent amount of time.

    You're gonna want the Honest answer, This games Multiplayer was everything back in the day and to this day is still being played competitively, I cannot fathom how many hours, days, weeks, MONTHS was spent playing against someone with some of the most fun extras ever made in a FPS, Big head mode anyone? Paint-ball?

Paint-ball?

    And sadly that is the only bold statement of this game, because frankly aside from the Dam level, the use of the watch laser on the train and the final level, I cannot remember all too well the single player experience, that was an experience RARE perfected in "Perfect Dark".

    But still does that matter? Obviously if you heard the story behind development, Nintendo stopped funding it, Multiplayer was added in as an afterthought, The game was literally filled with bugs, how this game did not fall down to the ranks of generic movie tie-In game is beyond me!

    Only RARE could salvage it, which I bring up for the sole purpose that other than the fairly well made Wii remake, Every bond game has either not lived up to the bar this one set, Or every Goddamn remake of this game for Xbox360/PS3 was incredibly disappointing!

    Final Verdict: Out of all the problems RARE faced, they delivered one of Video Games most fondest social gaming memories of all time before online reigned supreme! Great game, even greater memories 9/10.    … Expand

    Easily the best first-person shooter on the Nintendo 64, and one of the best games of its generation. I spent many hours with my college roommates enjoying the stellar split-screen multiplayer. The single-player campaign is brilliant fun, combining elements of stealth with good old-fashioned gun blazing action. The soundtrack is pure Bond. A must-own for every Nintendo 64 collector.

    Perfect Dark is my favourite FPS game, but Golden Eye is without doubt on my top 3 FPS-list. Memorable and classic graphics, awesome music, nice weapons with great sounds!
