I should have checked this game out more thoroughly than I did! I ordered this game to go along with the N64 system I purchased for my 13 year old as a Christmas gift. Right now he's upset because I haven't let him play it again since then. I have three younger children, 11, 4, and 1. My 4 year old has been mimicking the gun play found in this game and even though I don't allow toy guns in my home, he uses his very active preschool imagination to turn his toys into weapons of mass destruction! My 13 year old literally sat in front of the screen for 4 hours straight on Christmas Day unable to hear or interact on any level with the rest of the family. He even lied about doing his assignments in order to have more play time. When I finally sat with him while he played, I was horrified at the level of violence. I don't think 13 is old enough to play this game--try 16 (maybe).
Golden Eye- not the best game anymore

At the time Golden Eye was released it was one of the best walk-around-and-shoot'em-up games around. It has been that untill Perfect Dark was released. Perfect Dark in 20x better. If you are planning on getting this don't waist your money get Perfect Dark.
James Bond.........................................NO!

This game is overated. I got this game I got this for christmas this year and i was disapointed with goldeneye. All you have to do is run past stupid guards. The guns don't have real names. PP7? Its PPK. You even hear that in the movie. The guards all have the same faces. This is more like a russian massacre. I once put a happy face infront of a gaurd and he didn't notice. The solo missions are boring. Bond is not supposed to go to the bunker.The multi player is boring unless there are 3 or 4 players. This game is only good for people who really like bond
who ever says this game is good should get help

I read this one guys review who said this is the greatest 1st person shot out. Well your wrong. First of all Halo is way better, also Call of DUty, and also the other james bond games. I am a fan of the James Bond games but not this one. I borrowed it from my friend. Theres no plot they just throw you in a mission and kill guys and do it again. It got so boring and easy so I quit even on hard mode. So if you see this game even for a penny just smash it with a hammer and dont make eye contact.
Extremely Overrated

This game is fun to play on multiplayer, but it is very unrealistic. 1.) Your weapon accuaracy is not affected by how fast you are moving, what position you are in, or what kind of weapon you are carrying. 2.) There is no element of fatigue in this game. 3.) You have no control over what weapons you take on a mission, what gadgets you take, etc. In real life an agent would plan extensively. 4.)It takes less than a second to reload. 5.)It takes many shots before you die. 6.)The enemies are stupid. They take an hour to register that you're there, get their weapon ready, and actually begin shooting with their pathetic aim. 7.) They don't have real weapon names (PP7 instead of PPK, KF7 instead of AK-74, AR33 instead of AR15, etc.). 8.)BODY armor protects your ENTIRE body. I even tried it on multiplayer. I shot the opponent in the head, yet it was their blue armor meter that was damaged, not their red health meter. 9.) There is not element of stealth in this game. You can be running at full speed and not alert the guards. Like I said, this game is fun to play on multiplayer with 3 or 4 people, but single player games get boring and dull after a while due to their repetitiveness and horrible simulation.

This game is a poor, repeating open-the-door-shoot-someone-see-the-blood-splatter-all-over-the-place game. I don't understand why the bathroom doors open by themselves anyways. The poor aiming of the opponents gets on my nerves also.
Why do people worship this game?

Well, to be frank, "GoldenEye 007" is decent. It is an average first-person shooter with some challenge. (You need to beat missions at a certain amount of time to unlock a secret, for example, which was a good idea.) However, there are more cons here than pros. The graphics are mediocre, not detailed enough. There's no replay value (for the one-player missions). The Multiplayer Mode is so boring and dull, there are not enough stages, or the stage just isn't large enough. The weapons are good, even if they're not real. Lastly, the lack of good enemy AI disappoints me. The only real fun in this game is purposely failing a mission. What also makes this game worth playing are the sounds of the bullets and ricochets as they hit a wall. The music rates 8.2. The short cutscenes when you start and end a mission are so pointless. The lack of enemy soldiers screaming in pain as they're shot also disappoints me. I'm sorry, but I think people looked at this game so blindly.
I love this game!

I like all the leveles that you can choose from. The different guns,difficulties,and easy to open codes give you many different ways to play.So over-all Goldeneye 007 is the best game I own.
