That's what, a little over $10 US? Go for it, the game is great. :)

i've read crappy reviews for it, so haven't played it firsthand, but at that price i'd still pick it up.

not even a port, it was a new game altogether, but, as usual, they screwed it up.

it was called Goldeneye: Rogue Agent. here's IGN's take on it:
GoldenEye is an empty vessel of a game missing personality, charm, story or any kind of distinguishing character. If videogames were living creatures and had souls, Rogue Agent would be the wandering game in search of one. It's a first-person shooter that feels like its dying to be like many other videogames but doesn't achieve any sense of individualistic character. It's missing that special something that gamers latch onto, love or obsess about in a game. Instead, you've got a title void of passion and a character lacking any personality. And to top it all, GoldenEye's gameplay doesn't do anything worthy of calling itself evil in any way, shape or form.

Goldeneye on The box, cube and ps2 really was bad. It was like they COULD of made it really good but some how missed it all by a mile...

But, and this sounds retarded I know....

If you buy it on the DS, its actually not a bad game. Its just like playing the N64 version of Goldeneye, but a little more polished. Its not bad at all.

All i can say its try the console one. Its £9.99 new in the UK, probably cheaper from someplace. Its not that much to lose out on is it really.
