This was the greatest video game ever made.

- freehunter 15y agoPerfect Dark, which was basically the same game but with updated graphics and an alien plotline.
- oinksoft 15y agoThat game always seemed like a choppy, blurry GoldenEye to me.
- davidwtbuxton 15y agoPerfect Dark benefited greatly from the N64 expansion pack, and was a lot less fun without it. I'm not certain it was better than Golden Eye (mostly because I found the second level very frustrating) but it had better graphics and a much more ambitious style of play.
- molsongolden 15y agoWatching your arms float around disjointedly as you run is the best part, or taking 25 sniper shots to kill a guard. I went from playing MW3 one morning to Goldeneye in the afternoon and it was mindblowing.
- TillE 15y agoI spent plenty of time playing GoldenEye; it was a good game. But the hyperbole surrounding it on the internet is unbelievable. It was released in August 1997. Even if you only care about the first-person shooter genre, Duke Nukem 3D had already been out for over a year, and it was a much more sophisticated game.
- bradleyland 15y agoSophistication wasn't what made GoldenEye great. I think the four person multi-player and control accessibility are what made GoldenEye such a big hit. There was something very fluid and "easy" about the controls in GoldenEye. Many of my friends that never played FPS made the jump for that game, and we spent countless hours swearing like sailors as we killed each other in the archives.
- justinhj 15y agoI liked it for the fun single player level design mostly. The game engine also paid a lot of attention to details othe fps did not. Different reactions based on where the bullet hits an enemy. Security cameras. Alarms. Stealth sections.
- rikthevik 15y agoI really enjoyed the music and atmosphere. It really made you feel like you were in a James Bond movie. I also enjoyed all the shout-outs to the old movies too - stuff like the Moonraker level.
- jetti 15y agoI agree, it was the multi-player which made it the great game it was. I remember my buddies and I made up a game in the Complex map where one person would take what we dubbed "the house" which was an area you could go up and had a vantage point of several areas while the other person had to try and take the "house". It was a good time.

- triggit 15y agoSome of our employees play this game a few days a week after work. Remote mines in the Complex, 2v2 or free for all. If you think you're good, we're hiring for a few positions. See profile.
