How many more GoldenEye remakes will we get?

I find it funny how GE gets remakes and semi-sequels left and right and none of them actually match what the game did in it's time.

Is that testimony to it's greatness or are the people who have the Bond license really out of ideas?

Discuss.

There has only been one golden eye remake and a spin off game. Two games that spawned off one from over a decade span... I really don't know what you are getting at with "remakes and sequels left and right"Theverydeepend

Let's see:

- The World is Not Enough (sequel of sorts; N64, PS1)

- Perfect Dark (spiritual sequel; no Bond license tho; N64)

- Time Splitters (similar gameplay mechancs; PS2)

- Nightfire (yet again a Bond FPS; PS2, GC, Xbox, PC)

- Rogue Agent (remake of sorts; PS2, GC, Xbox)

- GE "2010" ("proper" remake; Wii)

- Reloaded (see above; 360, PS3)

Okay, maybe some aren't remakes per se, but they certainly copy the concept.

And the only game that copied it really successfully was Pefect Dark imo.

Left and right? It's had a remake, an uprezing of that remake and a, reimagining(? I really don't know what to call Rogue Agent) in what, 14 years?

Wait a few months when they'll start making sequels to the remake ;)

It's ActiVision's license now after all :P

so much for a rational argument.

What's not rational about it? All of the above listed games copy GoldenEye in one way or anther.

And there was a expresion for Doom-like games in the 90s - "Doom clone".

Mario and Zelda have familiar stucture and gameplay but have enough changes to pass as fully new games (the only remakes are Ocarina 3D and Mario 64 DS).

You said Goledeneye remakes, not 007 games or Goldeneye "clones".

So I have to agree with the other guy, so much for a rational argument.

So just because it's not remakes per defenition makes them terribly unique?

You have to be blind not to see the obvious GE copycats.

This year's is just a port of last year's Wii game, not really a legitimate attempt at a new remake. And last gen's wasn't remake, it just used the golden eye name to rope in more sales.

There was a interesting pic comparing the second GE level from four different games but I can't find it anymore.

They changed it into something teribad. For me there is only one GoldenEye game.

After realoaded? Hopefully none.

So every bond game is a goldeneye copy or remake? You're a joke. Nightfire was less of a Goldeneye copy than TimeSplitters 2 (i mean that in a good way).

Actually yes, GE's innovations and design are *very* copied in the Bond games that came out after it. If you can't see that that's unfortunate for you.

What better FPSes were there on the consoles at the time?

Four More. mark my words...

Goldeneye is pratically it's own IP at this point.

We have the Movie Spinoff, Rouge Agent (which I think is supposed to be either an Alternate Reality of the Movie or another Remake I don't know I didn't play that one), and the Reimagining.

There will always be one Goldeye and that one is one that came out on the N64 in 1997.
