Up to 16 players can compete online, earning experience points to unlock gadgets, perks, and weapons, while up to four can challenge each other via split-screen display. Matches can be further customized with a choice of modifiers, such as a paintball option or the ability to play with specific weapons like golden guns. Classic Bond characters such as Jaws, Oddjob, Scaramanga, and Goldfinger are playable across more than ten maps and a variety of game types. Like the original GoldenEye on N64, multiplayer support is a key component. Bond will be able to use over 25 different weapons in the game, from assault rifles and rocket launchers to proximity mines and smoke grenades. Those who enjoy stealth can attempt to slink through areas unseen, while those who prefer a more direct approach can engage enemies with guns blazing.
Featuring a slightly altered storyline written by screenwriter Bruce Feirstein, who co-wrote the film's screenplay, GoldenEye for Xbox 360 adds completely new levels, alternate locales, destructible environments, high-definition visuals, and even a new Bond: the original film's Pierce Brosnan is replaced by the likeness and voice of Daniel Craig.Įach level can be played in different ways, depending on your style.
