Can you make a video of you playing that "Get up 2 dance" game in the background

[@dwatts64]

So you know, GoldenEye 64 DID have dual analog controls. If you plug in 2 controllers and select the 2.1 control scheme (I think that's the one) it is a dual stick control scheme for the game using two controllers and two sticks.

[@creativeusername7951]

NightFire is better than GoldenEye. Fight me.

[@n64glennplant]

dwatts64 that’s right, there’s a similar control method in Star Wars racer on n64 too

[@michaelsierra9]

Goldeneye was and still is my favorite N64 game, followed by Mario64, my favorite mario game of all time.

[@WebstersYouTube]

For me, Goldeneye's legacy lived on in Perfect Dark and TimeSplitters. Lots of the same developers, very similar feel, heck even the same health bars!

[@TrashwareArt]

also less buggy / cheaty

[@bigbobey1680]

I think it still lives on anyway.

[@TrashwareArt]

@@bigbobey1680 definitely. Its fun if you play with people who don't exploit the game

TimeSplitters 2 was my jam!!

[@bigbobey1680]

Sightless Eye Entertainment yeah exactly!!

[@exiledPostman]

I liked how the original Goldeneye taught us how to speedrun so we could unlock the weird cheats like Big Head and DK mode.

[@joeyparkhill8751]

GoldenEye is in my opinion the best FPS to speedrun

[@bigbobey1680]

In my opinion, the best of all games

[@MrCalverino]

now it would be dlc🤦🏿‍♂️

[@MoviesNGames007uk]

Cradle level must be one of the fastest final missions of all time

[@DadaPoopoo]

Isn't DK more the same thing as big head mode?

[@DavCube]

Rare really was ahead of their time with the situational reaction animations. Even many games TODAY don't use that technique very often, just letting the enemies be bullet sponges until they suddenly rag doll when their HP hits zero.

[@bigbobey1680]

It shows you how we have barely moved on in the past 20 years

[@liquidgeorge]

DavCube So true. The feeling of your bullets hitting the enemy is remarkable and, for me at least, has not been replicated in ANY FPS since Perfect Dark. As great as Timesplitters was, I felt even that had something missing from the impact magic Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark had.

[@MiG-21bisFishbedL]

"If you didn't have one, you wanted one" Dude, if you didn't have Goldeneye, you didn't have an N64. It was one of the games that convinced me to mow tons of lawns and get an N64. If you had an N64, at least in NA, you HAD Goldeneye. Good times.

[@cms1138]

I had an N64, one pad and this game and my friend was so impressed with the game and his desire to play the multiplayer was so strong he decided to buy his own n64 controller... Even though he didn't have an N64!

[@joeyparkhill8751]

One of the few things President Yamauchi did right in the N64 era in my opinion was to give RAREWARE the opportunity to use the GoldenEye license.

[@trevorrandom]

Goldeneye is probably the most important multiplayer game of all time in my opinion. Baxk in the day having 4 players in the same room was fantastic!

[@drunkensailor112]

That was the first time you could have that without having sex

[@bigbobey1680]

Is that true? In that case, goldeneye is a lot more than just a video game.

[@Mary-dc6js]

I think Counterstrike is the most important multiplayer game of all time, it completely changed everything. Quake did as well, but I think Counterstrike, and by extension Half-life changed online gaming forever. Without Counterstrike and Quake there wouldnt be Esports.

[@andrewwhitfield5480]

Knowing they used a Saturn controller early in development actually explains a lot about the final control scheme.

[@joeyparkhill8751]

The only FPS games I still go back to from this era are GoldenEye, Duke Nukem 3D & DOOM 64

[@bigbobey1680]

Which is your favourite?

I miss how in single player each new difficulty had new objectives to get you to play the higher difficulties. It made you learn the levels and master them. Games don’t do anything like that anymore. Plus the way enemies reacted to you shooting them is still amazing and has been pretty much abandoned in modern games

[@ChronikSpartan]

Fantastic episode mate! Really enjoyed this! I always get the urge to play Goldeneye around Christmas time!.

[@otaking3582]

Wasn't there a way to play using dual-analog sticks by just using two controllers at the same time?

[@kasuraga]

yup! its really hard too from what i understand. i dont think they quite function as dual analog fps controls we have now

[@JamieTannerPresents]

@@kasuraga more like hard to switch playing style to dual analog after years of default controls.. I believe if you start with dual analog you'll be fine, even advantaged

[@kasuraga]

@@JamieTannerPresents the main issue is that you cant access the A and B butto to cycle weapons or use the action key. there does appear to be a mapping that has move/strafe on controller 2 and look/turn on controller 1 though.

[@KoopaMedia64]

You could also use control style 1.2 solitaire, it sets d-pad to walk and analog stick to aim. It’s very similar to dual analog on later systems. For A and B, just reach them with your right thumb.

[@otaking3582]

@@KoopaMedia64 That seems even more inconvenient

[@farcry223]

I remember watching the E3 Reveal Trailer for Goldeneye 007 on the Wii, I got so excited and screamed with excitement that I was shaking and please don’t hate on me for this but I absolutely love the Wii game because it’s really fun and I really like it

[@burtbackattack]

Got to disagree with you about the controls on Goldeneye I always found them pretty intuitive but then I'm also a massive fan of the N64 controller, I know it's a weird looking thing and the analog stick has a tendency to break after a while but after the PlayStation controller it's easily in second place for me.

[@BubblegumCrash332]

License to kill was the first Bond movie I ever saw in the theaters. Dalton gets a lot hate but I always liked his take on the character very grounded. But Goldeneye (movie) was amazing.

[@AB-xd8hm]

Fantastically put together video as always, and nice Robocop tune in the background to boot at the start. However, not to be that guy, but Dalton was fourth Bond, not fifth, unless you count the "non-canonical" 1960s Casino Royal comedy film or that black and white Bond TV outing.

[@onaretrotip]

Still love me some GoldenEye. Was playing multilayer with friends recently; still brilliant.

[@SteIngham]

[@smurfjegeren9739]

What about From Russia with Love that was also on the gamecube? Its still the James Bond license, even if it aint Pierce Brosnan (._. ) And iirc its between Nightfire and Everything or Nothing.

[@Tacom4ster]

You didn't mentioned Pierce playing GoldenEye on I think with Jimmy Fallon or Kimmel, I can't remember well

[@slopesgameroom]

I saw that clip. Sadly you cant use that stuff too often due to bug companies kicking off :(

[@BenCol]

I’m glad you gave the Wii version a fair shake - I know a lot of people hate it because it was too COD or they don’t like Craig (or prefer Brosnan) but it holds a place in my heart as my entry way into my favourite film franchise. Yep, before I played GoldenEye 2010 I had never seen any of the films and had no intention of doing so - but now I’ve watched them all more times then I can remember, and read all the original Ian Fleming books, and some of the non-Fleming books, and read the comics and played the rest of the games etc. That being said, I haven’t played it in many years - in fact, having watched the film and played the N64 original, I fear it just won’t be as fun as I found it nine years ago. But I’m glad I played it. Oh boy, am I glad I played it. 0:42 Also Dalton was the fourth Bond - Brosnan was the fifth. Also, you forgot the original GoldenEye: Ian Fleming’s house in Jamaica.

[@Midekai]

Me and the lads spent YEARS even after we had perfect dark with its multiplayer suite, we still came back to 007 golden eye to wet our whistles. Frantic good times. I played all the FPS classics on PC and console, but golden eye REALLY stuck with us for decades.

[@bradwolf07]

I have so many fond memories of the N64 and Goldeneye in particular...it was awesome.

[@MisterRorschach90]

Golden eye is probably one of the most successful games ever created. It’s the one game that everyone thinks of when the n64 is brought up. When one thinks of playing games with their friends of family as a kid in the 90s this is what pops into your head. And watching speed runners play the game is insane.

[@jameslawrence2291]

I recently played goldeneeye again and found it almost unplayable. The control scheme and layout is so foreign to what we have got used to nowadays, I'm wondering how I ever played it back then. Rose tinted nostalgia.

[@TwoBlackMarks]

James Bond? I thought it was a Remington Steele spin-off.

[@Compucles]

Wow, that's an obscure reference. I only know who that is due to my mom being an old fan of the show and buying and watching every season of the show on DVD.

[@TwoBlackMarks]

@@Compucles When I was a kid, I walked to my grand parents after school, and I usually watched some Television since they had some more TV channels. Remington Steele was on for several years, I was not the biggest fan, but I think it either went before or after some other show that I watched. The show I usually waited on, was of course, The A-Team! Sometimes they sent Magnum, T.J. Hooker, Airwolf or Knight Rider instead. For me, I think A-Team and MacGyver is 2 of the best TV programmes ever made. Especially MacGyver is a show for everyone, young and old.

Perfect Dark was another favorite of mine. Updated engine. Laptop gun turret was fun.

[@leecroft7311]

License To Kill was one of the most criminally underrated of the franchise but thankfully in recent years the movie is finally being appreciated. License To Kill is my second favourite in the franchise, after Casino Royale. The Living Daylights and Goldeneye are tied for my third, still can’t decide which I refer. Followed by The Spy Who Loved Me and From Russia With Love (still rate From Russia With Love over Goldfinger)

[@therealnothingtoseehere]

Goldeneye remains one of my favourite games of all time. I got fed up with the fact that it doesn't play well on any emulator I've ever used, so I bought a N64 and an original cartridge to get the best experience I could. The inverted trident controller is surprisingly comfortable, even today, and the game plays brilliantly. I still love it, and I still play it regularly.

Thank you so much for covering this game. Not sure how much it holds up today but i loved the heck out of this back in the day. I also loved the Goldeneye movie, so it was perfect synergy to have both the game and movie be a huge success.

[@8G00SE8]

I always considered Half Life to be a different generation of FPS from Goldeneye and Medal of Honor when i was young, but now looking back i realised it was made in 97 and came out in 98 in the same era.

[@karnovrpg]

Still love playing the campaign. Unlocking all the cheats was a real feat. Nowadays, they'd make you pay for stuff like DK Mode or Paintball Mode.

[@DankRedditMemes]

Too young for an N64, but I loved the gen 6 007 games (especially Nightfire). Had the PS3 Goldeneye, but didn't hold a candle to the gen 6 games (especially with the shoehorned in classes and lack of bots). Surprised the sourcemod wasn't mentioned though.

Great video again, Slope! I find it really amusing that there is a big debate now on whether or not GoldenEye still holds up well today. I still like digging it out for stupid fun with friends occasionally but I fully agree with you in that it's a bit rough to trek through now. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who got a "Call of Duty feel" out of GoldenEye Wii and Reloaded.

[@kylebeezy7672]

Perfect dark was Goldeneye's successor imo, from adding classic GE maps, weapons. The characters, weapons, maps and story for PD was just timeless fun. Joanna dark and James bond would have hit it off most definitely lol

[@spladam3845]

Definitely a product of it's time, and has not aged well, but it deserves a retrospective like this. Well done Daniel, the story of it's development and the people who made it is a story all by itself that deserves to be told. We appreciate that hard work you've obviously put into this.

[@slopesgameroom]

Cant thanks enough. So happy to have done this

[@manicpreacher1566]

Correction. License To Kills lower than expected box office performance domestically (USA not worldwide) was not responsible for the hiatus. It was in fact a convoluted series of legal matters. Bond 1991 (Probably to be tilted Property Of A Lady) was already in pre production when these legal matters hit. It's highly convoluted, so I'll simply quote the wikipedia for clarification. "Dalton declared in a 2010 interview that the script was ready and "we were talking directors" before the project entered development hell caused by legal problems between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, parent company of the series' distributor United Artists, and Broccoli's Danjaq, owners of the Bond film rights.[12] In 1990, MGM/UA was to be sold for $1.5 billion to Qintex, an Australian-American financial services company that had begun making television broadcast and entertainment purchases. When Qintex couldn't provide a $50 million letter of credit, the deal fell apart. A French company called Pathé Entertainment (unrelated to the French studio Pathé) quickly moved in to buy MGM/UA for $1.2 billion and merged the companies to create MGM-Pathé Communications. Pathé CEO Giancarlo Parretti intended to sell off the distribution rights of the studio's catalogue so he could collect advance payments to finance the buyout. This included international broadcasting rights to the 007 library at cut-rate prices, leading Danjaq to sue,[13] alleging the licensing violated the Bond distribution agreements the company made with United Artists in 1962, while denying Danjaq a share of the profits.[14] Countersuits were filed. When asked what he would do following resolution of the lawsuits, Dalton told Broccoli that it was unlikely that he would continue in the role.[15] Paretti's behavior led to the bankruptcy of MGM-Pathé and additional lawsuits eventually resulted in a foreclosure by financial backer Crédit Lyonnais in 1992. The Bond rights lawsuits were settled in December 1992, and the renamed Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, now run by a Crédit Lyonnais subsidiary, began to explore further development of Bond 17 with Danjaq in 1993. Dalton was still Broccoli's choice to play Bond, but the star's original seven-year contract with Danjaq expired in 1993. Dalton has stated that the delay of his third film effectively ended the contract in 1990." I really get frustrated by people continuing to perpetuate the false franchise history that License To Kill was directly responsible for the hiatus. It puts people off watching the film, dismissing it out of hand. And, in turn, prejudicing Daltons tenure as Bond, the people who made it. So if you could find a way to correct this, it would be grately appreciated. Cheers.

[@Mace2.0]

Goldeneye... The game made by a few guys without any game-making experience beforehand, and a huge deal in speedrunning (despite the fact it's mostly you facing the ground & strafe run). Look, memory was hazy.

[@manshovel]

Great video! Got me right in the nostalgia feels as I played this game with my friends into the wee hours of the morning many nights in the early two thousand aughts. One thing I am scratching my head over is with all the mentions of the less than stellar EA games that came after, you made no mention of A Perfect Dark. Also made by Rare, this game was built on the same engine as GoldenEye and you could even unlock GoldenEye levels to play during multiplayer. This was another one my friends and I started playing once tapped out on consecutive weeks of late night GoldenEye sessions. Despite this, I really enjoyed the video. Thanks and keep 'em coming!

[@stefmccloud9302]

One of the best video games ever made in the world. And for sure, best surprise on the N64. Pure Masterpiece with a rich story and mythology. The 90’s were fantastic !

[@badnewsbruner]

Great video on a very beloved classic! I remember playing this game for the very first time as a kid. I was in middle school when this came out, and EVERYBODY had this cartridge! One guy, who is still a great friend of mine, had a Gameshark, and we would bring him our carts and he would take them and unlock all the cheats and secret levels for us, haha! Good times :) I wish I would've been smarter as a kid and kept all of my old consoles and games :( I know a lot of other kids wish the same thing though. It was just SO tempting as a child without a job, to take your old stuff to the game shop and trade it in for the new thing! I wish I never would've done that, at least with my N64. I still have my SNES thankfully, and all of my games, my NES stopped working so my mom brilliantly threw it in the garbage..... Still have all my NES games though. Damn... Now I really want an N64 again.

[@elfergos]

The original in a sense did have dual analog support, they had the foresight to add the option to pair two controllers, one for each hand.

[@PhazonOmega]

This game was my first first-person shooter! I don't know how its development compares to Quake, which came out a year prior, but it was certainly in development before Quake came out (albeit likely without the multiplayer yet). This was THE definitive first-person shoot for many, and I expect most, and it spawned Perfect Dark, which was the same but so much better!

[@hattrick8684]

I played it recently(within 2yrs). It was HARD... that being said after a few minutes of struggling with the control scheme I was able to get back to the swing of things. New controls on it would drastically bump up the replay ability. I can play an old game without the rose colored glasses though. I appreciate them for what they are/were. Not all, but most.

Since everyone else has covered GoldenEye 64 so well, I'm just going to state that I really enjoyed the Wii remake. Yet, you hit the nail on the head, that the Wii version doesn't have the same charm as GoldenEye, for the same reasons you explain. A shame, really.

I saw a talk given by Dr David Doak here on KZbin that I recommend you look up for more info, where he revealed that his name was in fact not supposed to be in the final game, as rare wanted to limit the amount of personal info from the programmers in the game. It was snuck into the final build as sort of a screw you to management by Doaks immediate superior. The talk was at some sort of gaming conference, look up his name and maybe GoldenEye and you should find it. Also, GoldenEye lives on in the speedrunning community, where it is still very popular.

Even though I played Goldeneye back in 2000 - 01 as a kid, I got quickly used to modern dual stick controls and specially mouse and keyboard on PC, so having a 97 control scheme on 2004 felt baffling and I understand why it can feel somewhat less endearing to revisit the old classic nowadays, that is why I really enjoyed Goldeneye on the Wii it really felt like a modern shooter but with the great awesomeness of the N64 era like, an entertaining full campaign with no season pass BS and specially 4 people on the same room multiplayer.

Have you seen the mockumentary ‘Going for GoldenEye’? It’s all about the few competitive GoldenEye players trying to keep the flame alive. It’s on Amazon Prime - not great, but it’s got a charm to it. And it’s only 40 minutes.

Never heard about that

Joey Parkhill It was independently made, so didn’t get much exposure or a wide release (if any). According to IMDb, though, it’s the first video game mockumentary.

Hey Daniel Ibbertson will you do a video on the entire James Bond 007 The History and the Games video in the future? Also as much as Pierce Brosnan is what I consider the definitive Bond character but I think Timothy Dalton portrayal as Bond is criminally underrated.

Use control style 1.2 to move with the d-pad and aim with the analog stick, works very close to a dual analog setup. Or if you really need two analog sticks, try one of the 2.x control styles, where you use two controllers at once.

Its always nice to see these in my feed!!

[@DaRealHananas]

Yay nostalgia overload

[@niels25chr1]

Such a pity Dalton only did two movies. Licence To Kill is still among the very Best Bond movies ever made.

I got the Golden Wii Classic Controller for like 10€ and it was because they were selling second hand peripherals at a local GAME store. I exited that GAME with a copy of Rythmn Paradise for the DS for like 5€ and that controller, and I still have that controller
