GoldenEye 007 is a first-person shooter video game developed by Rare and based on the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye. It was released for the Nintendo 64 video game console in August 1997. The game features a single-player campaign in which players assume the role of British Secret Intelligence Service agent James Bond as he fights to prevent a criminal syndicate from using a satellite weapon against London to cause a global financial meltdown. The game includes a split-screen multiplayer mode in which two, three, or four players can compete in different types of deathmatch games.
GoldenEye 007 was developed over a period of two and a half years by an inexperienced team. It was originally conceived as an on-rails shooter inspired by Sega's Virtua Cop, before being redesigned as a free-roaming shooter. The game was highly acclaimed by the gaming media and sold over eight million copies worldwide, making it the third-best-selling Nintendo 64 game. It received multiple year-end awards, including the BAFTA Interactive Entertainment Games Award, and four awards from the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences: Console Action Game of the Year, Console Game of the Year, Interactive Title of the Year, and Outstanding Achievement in Software Engineering.
Retrospectively, GoldenEye 007 is considered an important game in the history of first-person shooters for demonstrating the viability of game consoles as platforms for the genre, and for signalling a transition from the then-standard Doom-like approach to a more realistic style. It pioneered features such as atmospheric single-player missions, stealth elements, and a console multiplayer deathmatch mode. The game is frequently cited as one of the greatest video games of all time. A spiritual successor, Perfect Dark, was released in 2000, while a reimagining of the game, also titled GoldenEye 007, was released in 2010.

They was our favorites. You could only do the floating remote mines on bunker. And we loved throwing a mine in the vent on facility. Like, we played on other levels, but it was rare. -

You got to select the other Bond iterations like Connery, Moore and Dalton in multiplayer and not just Brosnan's. It was supposes to be in the original game but Rare dropped it at the last minute. -
Airbrushed like a mufucka. She looks nothing like that in the movie. -
I think the sole reason I never really played this was because at the time I was already a FPS vet from games like Doom, Quake, Heretec, Hexen, Duke Nukem 3D, and Rise of the Triad. Back then I was also playing online multiplayer thanks to Dwango and later Quake's TCP-based multi-player and later Quakeworld's improved network support. Coming from that there's no way GoldenEye was gonna be appealing to me.
Quake 2 was also released a few months after GoldenEye... Yeah... that happened as well. -
