I have a feeling it was take it or leave it.Jesus Microsoft, you suck at negotiating.
Imagine playing a shooter on Nintendo servers lol, while using the phone app to be able to have voice chat
so Xbox gets a nicer looking version that reminds us that couch co-op is a thing
yet Switch gets the original version with added online MP
…what?
They honestly should have left it then. Terrible deal.I have a feeling it was take it or leave it.
Because Nintendo has rock-solid online play and Microsoft hasn't figured it out still.Why is online multiplayer Switch only?
What's the licensing resaon behind that.
Misleading title. The Xbox version has 4 player split screen.
It's always a good time for doritos and mountain dew.
Get the Doritos and Mountain Dew guys, LAN parties are here to stay in 2022!
I mean I’m fine with that too. This game isn’t gonna hold up like people thinkThey honestly should have left it then. Terrible deal.
Looks really bad with the updated graphics going by a DF video, it’s literally just sharper textures which in the end makes it look even worse. Should’ve let it rest in peace until they bothered to do a proper remake. Give the IP to id and they would create magic.Wtf is this shit ? I am either stuck with updated graphics and no online or graphics from the ice age and online ?
Both versions are shit like wtf for real..

Why would they be sued?And then get sued by Nintendo and the magic would never see the light of day.
How brilliant.
Why would they be sued?
However, as one of the developers puts it, "When it was put to Nintendo, everyone there approved it. Except they didn't check with the one guy who mattered." Apparently, there was one, unnamed Nintendo executive who shut down the project, saying something, "along the lines of, 'There is no way a Nintendo game is coming out on a Microsoft console.'" As mentioned above, Xbox purchased Rare and most of its titles. MOST, not all. Unfortunately for fans, Goldeneye 007 was one of the titles not carried over.
I agree that it doesn't hold up that well, but without online play it makes the whole thing pointless (even as a nostalgia play). The addition of dual analog and a good framerate might elevate the multi to a degree though.I mean I’m fine with that too. This game isn’t gonna hold up like people think
Okay, I thought MS and Rare had something to do with this release. But it’s Nintendo giving away a rushed remaster?The remaster was originally scrapped because of Nintendo.
GoldenEye XBLA Remaster Cancellation Was Because Of Nintendo

That part is a huge win for me. Definitely disappointing about the MP though. Really hope it’s a timed thing…Disappointing, but it is “free” if you own Rare Replay. Will try it.

Incredibly disappointing. I don’t know what to say, this industry is choking itself, we could’ve got an awesome returnal of a beloved game but all we get is some bs rushed high res emulation nonsense.The NSO release is just a straight up N64 Rom in emulation, and probably they just let MS do the same version in a higher resolution emulation front-end.
If Rare could, they would probably release that canceled 360 remaster officially.
