You clearly disproved his argument by posting examples of the upper echelon of early PS2 graphics. Good show!DeathbyVolcano said:shit like this should be fucking bannable.

Oh I love situations like this.
If they had simply knocked up the resolution and cleaned up the textures, kept the gameplay in tact, and then released it on XBLA, people would spooge all over it. They'd go nuts. Just like what happened with Perfect Dark. In fact, the very suggestion of this had the rumor mill spinning so fast people were getting dizzy.
Instead, they've added geometry, improved models, improved the gameplay, put it on the system with the best FPS controls, improved the game in nearly every conceivable way, and you have some people take a big ole' dump on it.
Ah... nostalgia. You have a way with the illogical.

I couldn't agree more. However, it's the people who are insulting the game that are being blinded by nostalgia. It's one thing to cry about the graphics, but anyone who is honestly implying that it looks like an N64 game obviously doesn't remember what N64 games really looked like. I know that fanboys are naturally in "attack mode" because of E3, but some of the responses in this thread are just embarrassing.
If this game is half as fun as the original GoldenEye, it'll still be twice as much fun as any other FPS from this generation.

Good to see the best FPS coming to the best FPS console.

The gameplay will make or break this game, not the visuals.
It looks good enough now if it plays exceptionally which is definitely not a certainty.
Coolio McAwesome said:
Weren't you just saying something about other people being blinded by nostalgia?
You must look inward, sir.
Goldeneye is a very dated game. Very, very dated. Terrible AI. Poor aiming. If Goldeneye was released in today's market, people would make fun of it and call it a C- project by some student at Digipen.
It's notable as a milestone to bringing shooters to consoles. A very important game for its time, of course. But some games age better than others, and Goldeneye is certainly not one of the better ones.

We know that the framerate for multiplayer has been improved drastically, we know the enivronments are a lot more interactive, we know that the tank can now plow through buildings, and we know that Oddjob can throw his hat. What else do you want?

I like the fuzzy textures. Honestly, there is something about super crisp textures in today's games that can work against immersion. Its as if near-photo realism that makes the mind say "no this is not real, you can't trick me" instead of defaulting to 'make believe mode'.

I am concerned the feel of the original N64 style controls won't be there at all. I loved using the c buttons to straff and look up/down.

It's still awesome. I think it's mostly because of the levels. FPS games these days just have big open levels, no tight corridors or indoor levels. I loved SWAT 4 because it had shooting through doors, fighting in staircases and long hallways, not huge futuristic outdoor levels with no doors to open or block.

Alright, I looked inward. GoldenEye's still more fun than any FPS from this generation.
The problem I have with your argument is that the supposed "terrible AI" didn't adversely affect the game in any way, shape, or form. Complaining about the AI in GoldenEye makes about as much sense as complaining about how the Goombas behave in Super Mario Bros. The fact that the AI behaves in a predictable manner doesn't necessarily mean that it's bad. Even with the "terrible AI" GoldenEye was a very challenging game with a perfectly-balanced learning curve. I don't care if the AI doesn't behave in a realistic fashion. I'm not bothered by Koopas walking off cliffs in Mario games, so I see no reason why I should be bothered by enemy guards that can easily be lured around corners. Again, I don't think anyone would classify GoldenEye an easy game. Is it dated? Absolutely. On a similar note, Final Fantasy VI is also "dated" compared to modern RPGs; but I'd take it over FFXIII any day.

Well, I've certainly seen much better on Wii. I don't know how I feel about some of the weather changes to the first stage. The original dam stage was daytime, which I thought was pretty cool. Now it's rainy, which is a bit too cliche for my tastes. If Nintendo releases the original on VC I'll have no reason to buy this new one.

Very good point. Compare this to UbiSoft's demo fo the future combat Tom Clancy game. I foun dit odd that the AI soldiers could notice the "cloaked" players, even when they were walking in plain "earshot". I seem to remember that if you moved to quickly in GE, the AI would turn immediately around and fire off some shots in your direction.Coolio McAwesome said:

Having a playable framerate in multi and online multiplayer is worth the price of admission alone! They could use the original models and textures for all I care.
But they didn't and it's looking pretty good. Surprised they put Craig in there. That's kind of a George Lucas move.
