Goldeneye for the Wii is exciting, but also a bit misleading.

First, note that this is not a remake of the N64 classic. Yes, they share the same name, but this is a marketing strategy and is NOT completely truth. You will now play as the Daniel Craig version of James Bond, with many level alterations and complete changes. The mission structure will remain the same, where extra objectives will be added depending on the difficulty chosen. The multiplayer portion with support both split-screen and online play for up to eight players, but it seems that no direct remakes of the old levels will be included. It has also been confirmed that there will be support for both motion control and the classic controller.

For those unaware, Goldeneye was originally released on the N64, and is considered by many to be the best first-person shooter of all time. It had excellent level design, with a fleshed-out multiplayer component that never got boring. FPS’s to this day are still taking queues from it, and I’m hopeful that this remake/upgrade will be worthy of the name.
