Halo DS validity argued
It would appear that some aren't exactly believing Matt at IGN's Alpha of Halo DS, both in the comments of that post and the embedded video above. YouTube user SwiftShock thinks he has the answer to the whole debate and is of the mind that the game is nothing more than a modded version of GoldenEye: Rogue Agent.[Via Go Nintendo]
Goldeneye DS trailer
Yes, we know, it's a port of one of last year's biggest letdowns, but heck, it sure looks pretty-in that N64 sorta way. And we're sure all of you DS owners would welcome a (semi) mature-themed FPS. That is, if you're not tired of Pokemon Dash or Rayman DS yet... [Thanks, Andrew]
GoldenEye: Rogue Agent. Be the bad guy.
It's all very well fighting the forces of evil and being the good guy, but the fact is very few games allow you to be the bad guy. Coming down the road for PS2, GC and Xbox, GoldenEye: Rogue Agent lets you play... Well, can you guess from the title? Yes, that's right. A rogue agent. In the early part of the game, you're booted from MI6, and wind up working in and around the Bond underworld, meeting such legendary Bond villains as Dr. No, Goldfinger and Scaramanga (AKA The Man with the Golden Gun), as well as playing with Pussy Galore. The game is looking good, and hopefully will make a pleasant change from playing that annoying do-gooder, 007.
New Goldeneye: Rogue Agent screenshots - enh...
The first screenies that came out for Goldeneye: Rogue Agent were pretty impressive. You could see the warts on the guys' faces. The PR spin that oozed out was filled with promises of physics and facial expression implementations that would blow us away. Now, to be fair, these are only screenshots, so it's hard to judge. But we'll judge anyway...What the hell happened? These are mediocre at best, and remind us more of a first-generation PS2 title than a next-generation Bond game.
GoldenEye Rogue Agent: direct-feed footage
Head over to the IGN media pages to get a look at the entire second level of GoldenEye: Rogue Agent. The mission unfolds at Auric Enterprises, Goldfinger's mountain stronghold, which is under attack from Dr. No and his henchmen. As Goldfinger's ally, it's up to you to stop the invasion. But don't worry, you're character comes well equipped...
Paul Oakenfold to spin for Goldeneye: Rogue Agent
Superstar DJ, Paul Oakenfold, has agreed to compose an original score for EA'a upcoming sequel Goldeneye: Rogue Agent. Oakenfold has been featured in several other games, including 2001's Frequency and EA's upcoming installment of FIFA. In other news, Judi Dench ("M") & Christopher Lee ("Scaramanga" from The Man with the Golden Gun) have signed on to voice their talents for the project. Rogue Agent is due out November 15.
Two clips for the next James Bond game
The next installment in the exceptional James Bond series, Goldeneye 2: Rogue Agent, gets a couple of clips on Xbox Advanced. The game is going to go out on a limb and place the famous character on the other side of the railroad tracks, letting us play Bond as a bad guy. The premise is risky and the graphics are great - a good start, as the game moves into preview/marketing mode. The clips you can download include a Fort Knox scene, where you'll probably fund your rogue operation. You also get a great looking Hong Kong scene. What modern Bond yarn would be complete without a scene in Hong Kong?
Goldeneye: Rogue Agent takes a walk on the wild side
It's doubtful the original James Bond license-holders would have allowed this game to be made. Goldeneye: Rogue Agent is a game based on the premise of 007 being kicked out of the agency, due to his Uncoventional methods. The title flaunts the byline, "Why save the world, when you can rule it?" So you know we're in for an alternative reality experience. While the game looks like it implements some intriguing graphical upgrades (notice the detail on Q's face in the vid), we can't help but wonder if the premise is a little too risque - in the wrong way.
