It seems that cult games never really get old. After unofficially attempting a fat comeback by families, the mythical GoldenEye 007 could still be in the news in 2022. Crazy that.
While actor Daniel Craig will soon be passing the baton on to a new generation of Her Gracious Majesty’s secret agents, it is once again the video game adaptation of Pierce Brosnan’s first James Bond that is making headlines. Almost 25 years after its release on Nintendo 64, Goldeneye 007 talks about him again, as new successes posted online give hope for a return of the cult FPS from Rare.

The site True success, specializing in the achievements in inflating one’s ego and gamerscore, has just posted a new salvo of 1000G on a particular GoldenEye 007 that has not previously been seen on Microsoft consoles. The list of 55 unlockable achievements mentions each of Rare’s 20 game levels, completing the game on all three basic difficulty levels (Agent, Secret Agent, and Agent 00) as well as timed challenges.
The case deepens when we discover that the only two players who have had the luxury of unlocking some of these achievements are BIGSheep and Waylander73, the gamertag of an engineer and producer of Rare., possibly in the mystery of the gods …

This small number of users could therefore suggest that a port (and more if similar) from GoldenEye 007 to Microsoft consoles could see the light of day, while a very effective remaster could have seen the light of day in 2008. The rare Ross Bury, then Nintendo, would have prevented the end of the project, and a shame for the new generation of secret agents.
Looking at the various successes posted online, however, it can be seen that the British are not finished yet, as some of them, inherent in the multiplayer mode, have not yet been won by the lucky two. This gives you the opportunity to comment on the existence of a possible online mode in the comments below. For others, remember that the remaster that has been planned for a while is still playable on Xbox 360 and works wonderfully.
