GoldenEye 007 for the Nintendo 64 is one of those titles that has lived far beyond its time: the time of its release, the time of its original console, and the time when its graphics would be considered at all revolutionary. Even today, if you’re not interested in playing a well tooled first person shooter with three friends who are actually in the room with you, you can always put in the bigheads code and set the game to one-hit-kill and slappers only in order to enjoy a pantswettingly hilarious hour or so.
As it turns out, this thirteen year old game may very well be getting some kind of an update.
That VideoGame Blog reports that Activision has regestered the domain at goldeneyegame.com (nothing is there at the moment). Though they warn “It should be noted that previous reports have largely quashed hopes for a re-release of the classic Nintendo 64 shooter.”
That doesn’t rule out the possibility of a sequel, or, as they suggest, an original James Bond title. We’ll have to wait and see.
