    I can't say the whole game was terrible, I've been playing it for days now, but i just got so pissed off i turned off the game, put it in its box, and im returning it tomorrow. its just one of those games that makes you scream at the tv and wanna break the controller. you reach a point where its no longer fun, you just want to finish it so u never have to play it again.I can't say the whole game was terrible, I've been playing it for days now, but i just got so pissed off i turned off the game, put it in its box, and im returning it tomorrow. its just one of those games that makes you scream at the tv and wanna break the controller. you reach a point where its no longer fun, you just want to finish it so u never have to play it again. i'm aggravated!

    Fun game, but quite linear. Gameplay can be a bit ridiculous and tedious at times. Solid splitscreen multiplayer offers more depth to the game as the story is not particularly compelling.

    An average shooter for the PS2. Honestly, I can't recommend this title. Nothing about the game is outstanding in any way. The gameplay is somewhat enjoyable, but repetitive. The graphics and presentation are the game's strong point, however, some of the environments are very dark and unappealing. The story is uninspired and by the numbers.

The story is uninspired and by the numbers. The character is supposed to be a James Bond villain. However, you never get a chance to take on the MI6 and James Bond. Instead, the game pits you against Dr.No, while working for Goldfinger. Expand

    This isn't based on the movie or a sequel to the N64 game. In fact, it doesn't even feature James Bond. Instead, it's a non-canon scenario set in the Bond movie universe. The protagonist is a mute antihero that gets a literal golden eye, hence the title. The game isn't exactly great, but it delivers some mindless fun.

The game isn't exactly great, but it delivers some mindless fun. With all the different weapons and deathtraps, it's enjoyable if only in a generic sense. Eventually, the action can get repetitive. Still, fans of Bond will probably like the inclusion of all the classic villains. Overall, this is like "Halo 2", but nowhere as great. I would rate this with a 6.5 out of 10. Expand

    The moment I saw GoldenEye: Rogue Agent in the shop shelf, I was thrilled and expected a remake of the tremendous N64 GoldenEye game. Quickly I realized that is wasn´t, but nevertheless it is an okay game. The shooter gameplay is fun, the graphics are beautiful and the game comes with a lot of innovative ideas. But it has some flaws that spoil a lot of the fun.

A good game for shooter fans, but I recommend the Xbox version due to better graphics and controls! Expand

  1. A disappointingly repetitive and average ride at a time when above-average is a necessity.

    A lackluster package of average single-player and slightly better multiplayer. Unless you're a huge and/or irrational Bond nut, it offers nothing that competing games don't do better.
  3. This is about as close as any shooter's come to replicating the action-movie experience, with plenty of toys to play with and a great techno soundtrack.
