GoldenEye - the cancelled HD remaster done by Rare back in 2008 for the Xbox Live... has been leaked online... and is playable.







'GoldenEye 007 XBLA (2007) - Longplay' (in HD & 60 fps):-

^ a 2 and a bit hour playthrough video, on the Graslu00 youtube channel

Seems if you press the right shoulder button you can play it with the old N64 graphics too. Multiplayer levels are available too (NO OddJobs!!!) :)

God bless PC emulation - though apparently a wired Xbox controller is required... (or it can be played if you have a modded Xbox 360 or the dev kit for it)

Have it downloaded, but the emulator won't run on my PC. :( Would have loved to have been playing this.

I'm off to play this once again - and hopefully complete it on 007 level in an afternoon, followed by some multiplayer goodness: slappers, DK mode, proximity mines, & no odd jobs!

Wish it had been on PC would have been so good with keyboard & mouse, the N64 was very good but I fucking hated using that controller

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

Holy fuck. 4K, better framerate, split screen local multiplayer and full achievements as well. Can't believe it

Just seen online play is exclusive to the Switch. What an absolute fucking crock of shit that is

Is it the remaster that was held back from a good while ago?

No, mate. It'll be a new port - www.gamerevolution.com/guides/714763-goldeneye-xbox-game-pass-not-xbla-remake

It'll still have multiplayer - and be fucking awesome - just not online multiplayer.


These'll below will the order of the day once more! ;)
