It is because it was one of the first decent FPS for consoles? Not meaning to troll, but i tried to play Goldeneye back in its day and again recently, and i can't just understand why it is so revered. Anyone have fond memories of playing Goldeneye 007? With 8 million copies sold, Wikipedia calls it the third best-selling Nintendo 64 game of all-time (although this version doesn't recreate its single-player campaigns). GoldenEye 007, the beloved N64 first-person shooter, has been recreated in high-definition glory by a team of dedicated fans over the course of 10 years.the attention to detail and the amount of effort that went into GoldenEye: Source make it one of the most polished HD remakes of a N64 classic. So it's a massive step up in both visuals and performance for one of the more drastically dated gaming masterpieces of the last 20 years. It was created using Valve's Source engine, the same set of tools used to create Counter Strike and Half-Life games. It's free to download and it features 25 recreated maps, 10 different multiplayer modes, and redesigned versions of the original game's 28 weapons. GoldenEye: Source received its first update in more than three years this week.
