Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 12th February 2004 Wow. This is kind of susprising. But what I want to know is why isn't FRD working on it?? EA has a publishing deal with them and it's obvious that they're still trying to make a Bond game as good as Goldeneye, so why not let the guys who made it do the sequel? Yeesh. Goldeneye 2! - A Black Falcon - 12th February 2004 Oh joy, another mediocre EA Bond game... Goldeneye 2! - Dark Jaguar - 12th February 2004 Remember TWINE? Unless they do get Free Radical on this, I won't be expecting much. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 12th February 2004 TWINE wasn't very good, and Agent Under Fire was even worse, but Nightfire almost got it right (the main problem being the shitty aiming). I wonder what they'll do with the story though. Bring back the Goldeneye satellite? woo.. Goldeneye 2! - alien space marine - 12th February 2004 Halo is much better with exceptions of GE proximity mines. Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 12th February 2004 Proximity mines in multiplayer are the epitome of awesomeness. FRD should be working on this, though I guess they're probably busy on TS3. Goldeneye 2! - Darunia - 12th February 2004 Oh no, this is bad--they've slandered bad Bond movies with bad Bond games, but now they're going to slander a good Bond movie and an old good Bond game with a new bad Bond game! Quick, somebody stop them! Goldeneye 2! - The Former DMiller - 12th February 2004 We don't even know this is true quite yet. The report was pretty vague, and EA didn't confirm it. I don't know if I even want a sequel to one of my favorite games ever, and the last FPS I really loved. Goldeneye 2! - Dark Jaguar - 12th February 2004 Perhaps it's not exactly a sequal in story, but just in gameplay. Sort of a new take on the same story expanding on the whole thing... or something.... I dunno I'm just making this up as I go. Perfect Dark, now that was totally awesome. The only thing is I wish they included an option to disable gun functions so you could go in with a super dragon that could only fire grenades or a proximity mine that DIDN'T have the ability to detect proximity mines. I will say that the sensor added a whole new element of finding even more out of the way places to hide mines, and of course the challenge of preventing the person from scanning by either hogging the rest of the mines or just engaging them right around the mine you planted so they don't have a chance to scan. That also let me scare people into mines :D. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 23rd February 2004 Goldeneye 2 has been confirmed! I just got my new EGM in the mail today and in their preview section for next month they list Goldeneye: Dr. No vs. Goldfinger, a Bond game where you play as the villains instead of Bond himself. Nintendojo reported on this last week as a rumor, and it's turned out to be true. Here's Nintendojo's report on it: Quote:Nintendojo has received several UNCONFIRMED reports that EA's new Bond game, a remake/sequel of GoldenEye, will in fact not have James Bond as a playable character in the single player mode. Goldeneye 2! - The Former DMiller - 23rd February 2004 It's the April issue of EGM. Goldeneye 2! - Dark Jaguar - 23rd February 2004 Indeed, and also you should take into account OB1 how utterly ridiculous that whole concept is. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 23rd February 2004 Yeah, but you know how desperate EA is to cash in on GE's success. It is the April issue but would they use their all-important preview section for the joke? I seriously doubt it. And they already have a joke in it, which is a PSP LotR racing game. Goldeneye 2! - Dark Jaguar - 23rd February 2004 That one actually sounds plausible, if it was horse racing. Actually, we need a good horse racing game, so if that one was ever made, right AFTER it someone should make a good one. It just sounds far too ridiculous to ever actually be the case, and I mean EVER. Especially the part with time travel. Doesn't James Bond usually stick with extreme takes on currently existing technology? Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 23rd February 2004 Meh, it's EA. And it's a LotR GP game, DJ. They also mention a LotR kart racer and show a picture of Gandolf riding a go-kart. :D Goldeneye 2! - Dark Jaguar - 23rd February 2004 But even EA has standards. Granted, those standards concern only producing stuff that will sell, and even then they don't do that good a job, but considering their marketting department is in charge of the company, I don't think this would make it past them. Besides, SOMETIMES EA makes a game that's actually good. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 23rd February 2004 Yeah but this was already mentioned weeks ago by gameindustry.biz before this issue went to the presses. And then Nintendojo reports on this a week ago, citing "several UNCONFIRMED reports", without ever mentioning EGM. Goldeneye 2! - The Former DMiller - 23rd February 2004 Dojo never reports the right sources, which pisses off a lot of people in the industry. Even so, I can see this whole thing stemming from EGM as the reports just started last week and this issue went to print around that time. It might have slipped out from someone who saw an early copy. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 23rd February 2004 gameindustry.biz reported it on the 12th. That's almost two weeks ago. Goldeneye 2! - alien space marine - 23rd February 2004 Let me guess you go back in time bringing in all the past bond villains. Goldeneye 2! - Laser Link - 24th February 2004 How is the April issue out when it is not even March yet? Goldeneye 2! - A Black Falcon - 24th February 2004 Because the current issue is always the one for "next month", in gaming magazines at least... and subscribers get them earlier than newsstands. It's to give them a longer shelf life I think -- that "April" issue could be on newsstands for over two months and not look old at a glance... :) Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 24th February 2004 They replace the issues every month, ABF. I'm still not quite sure what to think of this. It could either be EGM's greatest April Fool's joke of all time (since two news sites reported on it), or EA's weirdest game ever. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 25th February 2004 HAHA you guys are stupid and I'm not! :p From IGN: Quote:February 25, 2004 - Having heard about the greatest James Bond game for more than seven years now, nobody knows more about the popularity, success and unbelievably long-lasting lore of GoldenEye 007 than the current owner of the videogame rights to that property, Electronic Arts. According to several recent reports, IGN has learned that a spiritual successor to the Rare-developed first-person shooter is indeed in the works. Told ya it wasn't an April Fool's joke and that not even this would be beneath EA! *does the "I love being right" dance* Goldeneye 2! - The Former DMiller - 25th February 2004 *does the "I will kill OB1" dance* Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 25th February 2004 Hahahaha... :shakeit: Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 26th February 2004 *does "I never cared in the first place since EA is stupid anyway and a lot of their games suck" dance* Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 26th February 2004 Everything or Nothing is pretty darn-tootin' fun... Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 26th February 2004 Well, EA is still stupid. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 26th February 2004 Well yeah... Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 26th February 2004 :far-out: Goldeneye 2! - A Black Falcon - 27th February 2004 Quote:They replace the issues every month, ABF. They put out the new ones but if there are ones from last month left over I think they leave them... And I agree with GR. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 27th February 2004 Not in my town, they don't. Crazy New Englanders. :D Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 27th February 2004 They don't around here either. Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 27th February 2004 *whispers to GR about how crazy Maine people are* Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 27th February 2004 *whispers to OB1 about how he totally knows that* Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 27th February 2004 *points and giggles at ABF* Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 27th February 2004 Hey hey, OB1! Post the picture! Do it, it'll be so funny!! Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 27th February 2004 I'm... I'm too lazy to find it... Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 27th February 2004 :( Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 27th February 2004 I was too busy making my Bo sig! Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 28th February 2004 Wooo! Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 28th February 2004 I know! Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 28th February 2004 I sent a DRC to Nintendodorks about Bo Jackson, soo *crosses fingers* Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 28th February 2004 I got a DRC in a couple of days ago. Look! Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 28th February 2004 I saw it! :D Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 28th February 2004 I'm so famous!! Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 28th February 2004 Me too! Goldeneye 2! - OB1 - 29th February 2004 You got in?? Goldeneye 2! - Great Rumbler - 29th February 2004 Two or three of mine have been posted. |
