So if you appreciate ingenuity, realistic settings, loads of cool weapons, and some of the best artificial intelligence ever witnessed in a first-person shooter, let alone a console shooter, GoldenEye 007 is an essential addition to your N64 game library.
Play GoldenEye one time and you’ll be jonesin’ for James harder than Grace Jones on a lonely night. It’s one of the best movie-to-game translations ever.

GoldenEye 007 – A Revolutionary ClassicGoldenEye 007 is an absolute gem that redefined what a first-person shooter could be, especially on consoles. From its thrilling single-player campaign to its iconic multiplayer mode, the game offers an experience that is nothing short of groundbreaking. The level design is superb, with each mission offering a perfect blend of action, stealth, and strategy, all tied to the beloved James Bond universe.What truly sets GoldenEye apart, though, is its multiplayer mode. The split-screen battles are legendary, providing endless hours of fun and competitive play. The balance of weapons, from the satisfying silenced PP7 to the devastating Golden Gun, is perfect for both casual and hardcore players alike. The game’s variety of modes and customization options ensured that no two multiplayer sessions felt the same.Even after decades, GoldenEye remains a nostalgic masterpiece, a game that not only shaped the FPS genre but also created countless unforgettable gaming memories. Its impact on gaming history is undeniable, and it still holds up as one of the best experiences of its era. A true classic!

Legendary FPS masterpiece. One of the reasons to own a N64. The game captured the over-the-top feel of the movie. Its levels are well designed with various objectives (depending on difficulty level) to complete and great weapons and gadgets to use. The multiplayer is just as enjoyable with its numerous maps and modes. Overall, I would rate this with a 10 out of 10.

This is without a doubt one of the best games ever made. Every true gamer should own this game, Goldeneye is an absolute must. Personally I don’t think I will ever stop playing this game, I love it.
Goldeneye is even better than "Mario 64." Even Oddjob could figure out what that means! A Nintendo 64 without Goldeneye is like James Bond without a vodka martini.
A pure classic if I've ever seen one. It is infectious fun with superb depth. This is a must buy that will keep you interested for months on end.
Overall, GoldenEye, while being a good corridor shooter, is a corridor shooter, nonetheless. I have no problem with Nintendo releasing quality games, but I think it's time they expand the horizons of the system a little.

This game is a classic, this game is a big reason that first person shooters are the way they are, but man does this game not hold up well in its current state.Thats coming from someone who has tryed playing it on Xbox, Switch, and N64.
I think the game behind it, is actually really great. It's environments are well made and make it easy to see enemies, the missions can be funny and quirky to play, and even by todays standerds the shooting and action isn't that bad.
But the problem is that It's still not great in it's current state. I feel if they added more control options like mouse and keyboard, and fixed the switch version so you don't have to use button mapping. And added more quality of life improvements like Save States in more versions than the switch version it would be better.
A true classic, an innovation of game design, but needs some work from modern developers

A shooter this old should not hold up as well as Goldeneye does, but this game is still incredibly satisfying to play, even more entertaining than most modern shooters on the current market. I think it accomplishes this due to the diversity of locations and objectives, sound design, and npc animations. While a few segments don't live up to the legendary status of this game, the highs it offers even to this day are incredibly commendable.

Really not worth the hype, unreasonably hard story mode and dogwater controls.

Let's all take of the nostalgia goggles for a minute here and give this game a fair analysis. I'm willing to say that there's a lot about this game that is really good. Almost everything, to be exact. Almost. So why is this game bad? One reason. The controls. The controls are so god awful, that they make the game pretty much unplayable. The N64 controller was not meant to play shooters. If you want to play this game in all it's glory, download the keyboard and mouse patch for it. Then you'll probably be able to play it the way all the nostalgia-blind people remember it.
