So like a lot of people I grew up on the Bond films. Probably one of my favorite ones is Golden Eye. To me Pierce Bronson as one of the best Bonds out there (next to Daniel Craig). Anyway I am here to talk about the Golden Eye game and not the movie that its tied to. Now prior to me writing this review I did not play the version on here. In fact I actually pulled out and play the copy I had for over 10 years. So how well does the game hold up after more then 10 years? Does it still hold its fun factor? Is it still worth your time to play? Well I will answer those questions and more in my review.

   So published and developed in 1997 by Rare is Golden Eye. The game based on the movie of the same name that was released to world wide critical acclaim back in 1995. The game was released exclusively for Nintendo's newest console the N64. Back when I first got my copy I was blown away at how well a game based on a movie at that time was 2 years old had the feel of its source material. So doe it still hold up today? Well lets find out in my review for Golden Eye: 007.

   Difficulty 5: The difficulty and be either as hard or easy as you make it. The controls are very tight and responsive. They aren't that hard to learn.

   Depth 5: The game doesn't really have a lot of depth to it. The stages are just major areas taken from the movie. Really that's it. Just scenes taken from the movie and made in to playable stages.

Story 3: To sum up the story all it is, is just like with every Bond film including Golden Eye. Is Bond goes on a mission to save the world from being taken over by some evil villain. That's all there is to it.

   Addictiveness  3: Now a days the game is not all that addicting. What was addicting back in 1997 including its 4 player local co op sadly does not hold on today. While at certain points the game can be fun, its fun to be had in short bursts.

   Sound 9: The sound still holds up very well almost 2 decades later. Music like the very famous Bound Theme sounds amazing in the games as it does in the films.

   Graphics 3: What may have looked great in 1997 does not hold up today. Granted the N64  is 20 years old. But games like Super Mario 64 and Star Fox 64 among others hold up a lot better then Golden Eye graphically.

   Overall 4.6: If you couldn't have guessed the game does not hold up well at all. What once looked and played great back in 1997 does hold up to the same standards in 2015. Do I recommend this game? Yes and no. Yes if your like me and a fan on Bond films. No if your a fan of shooters from a long gone era in gaming as there are better retro ones out there.

Pretty good review, could not hurt to be more detailed though. I do not know why but I never played Golden Eye. I'm half tempted to check it out! Keep up the good work!

huntra1291 : Like DestinyHero had stated this is an okay review and isn't horrible by any means; however, using a little more detail within your different sections (sound/graphics) wouldn't hurt at all. Though that just depends on if you'd enjoy writing that way. To give you an example so that way I'm not just blindly saying: "do better! :v" or anything in a jerk like kind of manner. You said the sound lives up well to this day and that the bond theme is just as great as when you turn on a movie from the "Bond" series? Perhaps you could talk a little more about certain songs you enjoy throughout the game...how they make you feel when you hear them, the atmosphere it adds to the game.

Same with the depth wherein you could talk about how long the game is to play all the way through with a rough estimate, and what other scenarios it may offer (like with the co-op/mutiplayer) scenarios and what not.

Still is a good review otherwise; but, alongside Hero...felt it wouldn't hurt to pop in an give some criticism/advice. Hope you might keep this work up if you enjoy doing so!
