Goldeneye
Review by Jerec

Pages and Pages of Text
When starting a mission, if you dont read the 6 pages of text, you might aswell give up. I really didn't like reading so much. But even when I did read, the missions went from being ''too hard'', down to just plain ''hard''.

Graphics (7.3/10)
The textures are good. That makes the levels look quite good. The people on the other hand, almost had square faces. They were revolting piles of stench. You only had to see Bond for a few seconds to tell he looked pathetic! When enemies were behind a door, you could see parts of them sticking through. You could also put your gun through a door and shoot away. People are going to be telling me that I am being too harsh on the graphics because they are quite old and they didn't have the technology to make the graphics perfect.

Sound (8.6/10)
The music is good (not great) and the sound effects are average. It could have had a little bit of voice. Super Mario 64 was released way before Goldeneye and had the beginning and end with voice from Peach, and Mario's voice through the game. I would have to say that the sound is one of the games high points.

Lasting Appeal (3.2/10)
Well, I couldn't get past the second surface misssion on the easiest difficulty setting. It was just too hard. So I dont see much Lasting Appeal here. But you may find it. Sorry to dissapoint you.

Gameplay (5.1/10)
Too hard, too much reading to do. I dont see the point of killing. It just doesnt appeal to me.

Good Points
- Good Textures
- Music is fine

Bad Points
- Too hard
- People look very weired
- Arms can go through doors. (closed ones)

Overall 6.1/10 (Rounded to 6/10)
This turns out to be an average shooter. I dont see how it is better than any others. Only more confusing. There are better shooters out there. Check out Perfect Dark.

Buy or Rent?
Rent first, It may save you from making a bad choice. If you really like it, buy it. Most people probably have this game by now. Lots of people like the game, and I respect that. But that means that people have to accept that I dont like the game.
