    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?

    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?

    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.

    Yes i have fun playing this game once and a while but the controls are clunky, the textures give some modern gamers headaches. but don't forget this is one of the first games that really got the first person shooter genre some deserved attention. If you want to play a 007 first person shooter i either recommend golden-eye reloaded or 007 nightfire

    Maybe possibly one of the first games that was not truly on a set course? There are empty rooms, and rooms or corridors that lead to no where or have no relation to the game at all. It follows the movie well and is everything you could ask for in a FPS.

    Unlike todays FPS it actually gets challenging on the 00 agent setting. I still have nightmares about Bunker 2 and Control.

    Considering the multiplayer was an afterthought, has it been bettered? Maybe by Perfect dark. Back in an age when you used to actually have friends round your house, instead of sitting in a dark room alone with a silly headset on.

    Good times.....

    The story is pretty much identical to the movie, the action is insane (AI is funny to look at today though lol), a great wide range of levels with heaps of variety, missions are very challenging and I still wonder how I 100%'d the game back then.
    What I admire most about the game, is the unlockables. Remember the days where you played instead of paid? this is a prime example. (yes I got this off a meme I come across haha)
    You EARNED your cheats
    You EARNED Aztec and Egyptian
    Ill never forget how hard it was to unlock invincible on Facility. Beat it under 2:05 on 00 Agent!!
    But for every cheat you unlocked, you were always satisfied and felt some sense of achievement.

    This was the reason why many shooters exist.
    It is a fantastic game and there was never a dull moment.

Gotta love the Death match!!
    effing awesome! no one really picks Oddjob. why did they even put that effing midget in there? aiming might make you shoot Oddjob, but nevertheless annoying. the rest of the game makes up for that. oh how i loved invincibility, all weapons, double weapons, paintball marks, all that stuff. i would never get bored with that. and i am 12. why you are even trolling on solid gold, make no flippin' sense to me. you don't have the GRACE to describe exactly why you hate it and you sound completely retarded. no wonder there is only one person who even likes you review out of 60.

    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.

    I grew up on this game and I still listen to the music today. Holy crap. This game, first off, follows the movie but also creates its own side story that goes well with the movie. It has great weapons, great level design, great gameplay, and great mechanics. I can't see a single flaw with this game.

    Whilst I was not there to play it at a young age, it is a game I fully appreciated and enjoyed even years after it's release. Whilst the campaign is intriguing and challenging, it is the split screen multiplayer that won it for me.

Compared to modern FPSs it has several flaws. However modern FPSs have a lot more capabilities, so the comparisons aren't fair. The flaws are small, and there are several "It would be nice if"s but nothing obvious or annoying.

    Inside it has many unlockable and wacky cheats. While most of them are rather boring weapon cheats, there are few interesting ones that make the game have another layer. It would be nice if they're were more, but it is nice touch that most FPS's don't have.

    There isn't a lot to say that hasn't been said, but not getting this game would be a big mistake. Nearly 20 years after came out, I am still playing it

    If you liked it when it came out, you will still like it today. It's still fun. One of my favorite features has always been that the different difficulties give you different mission objections (in most levels).

    I see a lot of reviews mention the terrible controls: while they are not great, they do not make the game unplayable. Anyone younger than a certain age or who started gaming

    I see a lot of reviews mention the terrible controls: while they are not great, they do not make the game unplayable. Anyone younger than a certain age or who started gaming after a certain year will think they are terrible because they are not dual-joystick. Yes, we all know that the dual-joystick configuration changed the FPS genre for the better. Unfortunately, it didn't exist until a certain point. Also, anyone mentioning mouse-and-keyboard can shut up since comparing a console-only game to PC gaming is a waste of time. The controls are fine if you are a true gamer. It would be one thing if the game's control scheme was messed up, but you can't say a game is bad because the controller that was made for a console isn't great. That isn't the fault of the game. In any case, I played through this game this week, on my N64, on 00 Agent, and beat it all the way through. So, the controls definitely don't make it unplayable.

    The music is good and most of the levels are fun. It's definitely worth replaying if you liked it before, but I would also say it's worth giving it a try if you have never played it before (unless you are one of these idiots that can't play old(er) games because of some whiny complaint like graphics or something).

    Nothing was more amazing than Goldeneye multiplayer back in the day. Now you should play Goldeneye Source if you get the chance, but if you can get used to the control scheme, this game still holds up, especially in terms of the campaign, which is plenty difficult.

    The graphics were amazing back then but obviously would age badly over time. The iconic soundtrack by Rare composer Grant Kirkhope is perfect. It matched the feel of being James Bond. Every stage theme sounded so exquisite. The story is extremely faithful to the film minus a few alterations to the plot. The gameplay was so addictive and fun. It made you want to replay it over and over. You were given more tasks on higher difficulties which made the game more fresh. The controls took a good bit of time to get used to but they are not as bad as avid gamers claim they are.

    Of course the famous multiplayer added by Steve Ellis himself before the game was released. It is one of THE best multiplayer games in video game history. Various modes, unlockable cheats, classic unlockable weapons and villains from the Bond lore in story mode made multiplayer a staple in the gaming community.

    The only things I hate in the game that could have easily been fixed was the poor frame rate, the stupid ai, unbalanced difficulty and terrible aiming system.

    A must buy for any gamer and Bond fan. A classic indeed.

    Back in 1997/98, GoldenEye 007 for the N64 was the most influential FPS title for consoles. To be fair, it still remains one of the most influential in the genre, period.

To be fair, it still remains one of the most influential in the genre, period. For its time, GoldenEye 007 looked great and the AI was fantastic. Enemies react to wounds on specific body parts, they try to dodge gunfire, and even raise alarm to call for help. The game offered multiple experiences from an easy play through to hardcore time trials, to custom created experiences. This also expanded into the created-on-a-whim multiplayer mode, perhaps the largest selling point for the title. Four ports on the N64 console meant easy four player matches, along with plenty of controller throwing.

    The music is well composed, taking hints from the original 1995 film but also originating and expanding. Realistically, they had to be creative. The game has more environments for Bond to explore than what the film had shown, including two flashbacks to the past with references to Moonraker, Live and Let Die, and The Man with the Golden Gun. Are you ready to take on Jaws and Baron Samedi? Can you even take them down? Ah, this game may be old but still, no spoilers!

    With a fantastic first player experience and an even better multiplayer mode, GoldenEye 007 is a classic game that cannot be passed up. During its time, people played this game religiously and it took years for it to lose any steam despite new game and consoles coming and even going. If you're able to, pick this one up and give it a shot—or maybe slappers only.

    I love this game!! I think this is what brought first person shooter games to where they are today. The missions could be as hard or easy as you wanted. Unlockable characters and the best maps ever for the time the game was made.

    One of my most played games in life. Absolutly revolutionary in a genre that wasn't even a console genre in the time. Incredible.

    This was one of the games I played most on my Nintendo 64. A great first person shooter, and even more fun when you're playing with friends. Never really got into the story mode, because I am in love with multiplayer games.

    One of the first 3D perspective shooters that gave rise to what we know today in the genre. Gameplay of 10 despite the limitations of the n64 controller. History and fun on all sides. Nothing bad to say about this game.

    un juego que para hoy en dia hay controles que no envejecieron bien pero para su epoca fue revolucionario, un juego que inicio las bases para el shooter de hoy en dia, sin el no tendramos los juegos que hay hoy, y ni que decir del multijugador, una tremenda joya 10/10

    поиграл в эту игру только в 2019 году и скажу я вам, что и сейчас она играется бодро и весело. Порадовало, что разработчики некоторые ситуации из фильма переиграли под другим ракурсом, чем это было в фильме, да и управление для геймпада Nintendo 64 более чем удобное и интересная фишка с ношением в двух руках определенного вида оружия и что у Бонда разные руки в зависимости от того, во чтопоиграл в эту игру только в 2019 году и скажу я вам, что и сейчас она играется бодро и весело.

    To simply put, this game is legendary! I absolutely love this game, punchy gunplay and it has really simple but intuitive gameplay and is surprisingly addictive and fresh compared to many FPS´s these days, one of the most iconic soundtracks ever made and a multiplayer that is simple but so fun, add all that to a blender and you create a game that lasts forever.

    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

    Goldeneye 007 is a dated shooter. I can see its influence on console gaming and console first-person shooter but in a few years nobody remembered Goldeneye anymore, that's because Goldeneye played it safe, there was nothing memorable or special about it but it offered great fun for N64 players.

    When I was young, I was left with an n64 hand me down console. I hadn't ever played a fps to that point as I was 8 years old, And I felt how bad this game controls and didn't like it, I have given it some more chances over the years but till this point I still see it as clunky especially looking back. pretty cool tho

    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.

    Perfect Dark is better, and always will be. this is one of the best and top n64 games out there.
    But for its time it was great, but has aged terribly, compared to perfect dark.

    Everyone loved this game back then, but time moves on, and that age is gone.
    better represent the classics yo! PD > 007....

    Doom may have been the original ground breaking FPS, but Goldeneye provided all of the embellishments that made them what they are today. Missions that required marksmanship and stealth as well as a fast trigger finger and its cinematic storyline that stays true to the film were watershed moments in gaming evolution.

    The classic analog stick FPS. Here's a secret: if you plug in a second controller, you can play with two joysticks for the single player mode. However, the right stick moves your vision up and down and strafe left and right, while the left stick moves your vision left and right and move forward and backward.
