GoldenEye 007

The game was followed by its spiritual successor, Perfect Dark, also developed by Rare. The game menu system is presented as an MI6 dossier having four save files available to track Bond's progress through the game's 20 different missions, each of which may be played in an "Agent", "Secret Agent" or "00-Agent" difficulty level. The higher the difficulty the more is required by the player to complete additional and complex objectives. M, Q, and Miss Moneypenny (!) provide background information on the chosen mission as well as its main objectives. Your basic weapon in most missions is James Bond's Walther PPK handgun. Most of the game's firearms are modeled based on real-life counterparts (although their names are altered), while others are based on fictional devices featured in the Bond films. The most innovative detail is that this game introduced multiplayer deathmatches on the console for the first time.

The graphics in the N64 version are incredible. From the installations dug deep under the snow to the lush Cuban jungles, each environment looks really nice, with a decent amount of detail and very smooth 3D animation! The sound features absolutely perfect music taken from the original movie as well as several high-quality, digitized sound effects which add a lot to the game's action and presentation.
