Let’s Play GoldenEye 007

The name’s Bond. James Bond. Since the game was re-released on the Xbox One through the Rare Replay in early 2023, I decided to give this game a go with the updated control scheme and basical quality of life upgrades, and they did such a great job! I am definitely not a fan of the old school FPS N64 controls, so this was just what I needed to actually play this game like a normal human being in the modern era. I played through this game on the 00 Agent difficulty, being the hardest difficulty in the game on this particular run! I have to say that Train, Control and Aztec were the hardest levels to me. Having to babysit Natalya is a chore, Train is such a pain in the ass, and Aztec is… well Aztec. It’s funny to think back about how quickly I stomped through each of these levels afterwards to get the cheats unlocked for the PAR time for each level. I can see why so many people love this game, it really is a lot of fun, putting aside some of the annoying quirks it brings to the table for being such an older game.
