Activision's GoldenEye Wii and DS remake leaked

[Chris3kb]

   
For many, GoldenEye was the turning point for first-person shooters on consoles, and in many ways defined the Nintendo 64-era of gaming. Since then, publishers and developers haven't been able to capture the same magic of Rare's original. So what do you do? You remake it, apparently.

According to a leaked survey, Activision will be releasing a new version of GoldenEye for the Wii, "developed from the ground up" to take "advantage of the latest technology to deliver the same intense experience with today's graphics and physics." The title will supposedly "modernize" the classic story, placing Daniel Craig in the role of Bond. The survey suggests that many (if not all) of the originals areas from the N64 title will return, along with its weapons and four-player split-screen. The game will reportedly support 8-player online matches, as well.

A potential golden Wii Remote shell, as well as a golden Classic controller, were also hinted at in the survey.

Following this survey leak, Eurogamer has received word that Eurocom (responsible for the N64 Bond outing, The World is Not Enough) will be developing the title, along with n-Space. GoldenEye for Wii, along with an Nintendo DS title of the same name, is said to be revealed at this year's E3.

Oh god this is going to be terrible. Why not the 360, PS3 and PC? The Wii and DS suck and won't be able to handle the epicness. The sad thing is that GoldenEye for N64 will probably have better graphics then the Wii version.

With the wii mote? the controls will be awful. The wii mote sucks, you have to have the angle just right

When I saw this news I actually had to check my Calender to make sure that it was April 1st (April Fools Day for the dumb dumbs out there). I cried when I saw it wasn't April 1st.
