GoldenEye: Source

I'll let this speak for itself..... (http://www.goldeneyesource.com/index.php)

Nice! Along with this mod (http://www.pdark-mod.com/) I'll be really happy.

[Orochi Avlis]

It would be cool if somebody were to make a HL 2 beat-em-up in the style of Super Smash Bros.

Wierd and cool items, nice maps, insane attacks, at least 4 players and voila: instant hit!

I've always wanted an online Smash bros pc port. However lets not forget Nintendo would never go down that path. Though, there is a Mario Is Missing for pc....I own it http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hhg.gif

And the cease and desist order is coming in 5, 4, 3, 2...

The HL version didn't get killed but that was before the Bond licence was bought by EA.

True, but we (or somebody), could make one with HL/HL2, CS and maybe other mod characters.

Imagine a free for all with G-man, Gordon, a CT and Nazi soldier from DoD.
Traps all over the level. Items appearing. And with ragdoll physics, it could heighten it to new levels.

There is a similiar mod called Brawl, which I'm looking forward to.

I was thinking the same thing. GADS! I'm thinking like MM... did someone hit me in the head with a shovel?

[seregrail7]

Yeah... soryy about that Draz. I thought you were trying to steal my t.v.

Yup, and it finally knocked some sense into you!

[Phait]

Many of these types of mods aren't worth it unless they actually get approval. They just get shutdown most of the time.

[Nessus]

If they want to make spy game they can just name him something else. Really, how much would it change the way the game played? And if they didn't get permission to do this than how dumb can these guys be, they might as well film book 7 of Star Wars while they're at it.

[avatar_58]

I say just remove the title and the bond characters. Fixed.

[Malgon]

Yeah I've recently been playing Goldeneye, and I was interested as soon as I had seen this mod in development. Can't wait, but it will probably get shut down. Sad really. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

But then it's not Goldeneye, and then it's not fun.

[Mountain Man]

Do you care more about the characters or the gameplay?

[GrkFire611]

If they're really going to recreate the N64 game's style, they'd better take out jumping. I loved the lack of a jump function in Goldeneye. If you got your friend in the crosshairs of your RCP-90, he had to stand there and take it. Not jump around like some silly bunny rabbit. Mwaha. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Mediocre, Man.]

Yeah, this looks great. Sadly, we'll never get to play it if history is of any guide.

Excuse me? I didn't like goldeneye because it was bond....hell, I hadn't even seen many of the 007 movies when I played that game (yeah yeah, but its true)

If you take out bond (a HUGE copyright infringement) and don't act like its a direct port...then I don't see what the issue is with making similar guns and levels.

[Phait]

But if you go in playing a game expecting it to be "________" and all that is removed is the name it's just not the same.

I'd rather play something authentic or at least retaining the name/characters etc. That's just how >> I << prefer things. I can't believe how defensive some of you get over a game.

[Malgon]

As long as I get to use twin DD-44 Dostovei's and the RCP-90 then I'm happy.

Heres hoping the mod make it. (crosses fingers)

Rare's pretty cool about this sort of thing; I think they gave permission to the people doing the Goldeneye mod for UT2k4

[Kristian Joensen]

Ehh, they don't own the James Bond IP so their premission doesn't matter, also Rare is afaik a Microsoft company.

I think that makes it even funnier.

[Kristian Joensen]

That would be parody and therefor perfectly legal. Also they could make a patch turning it into Goldeneye.

Parodys are not always legal either.

Ahahah, Amen to that Dude http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Edit: About the mod...I bet a 49% chance it will get shot down by EA if it is a Very popular mod, EA doesnt seem to pay much attention to the community or to thier MASSIVE amount ip's They own.....Excuse me as i go back to planning on how to destroy their new HQ....

[Horizon55]

Wouldnt it Paramount not EA who gets them to stop as its them who own the ip for bond???

GoldenEye will be terminated by MGM and Rare Ltd. MGM (that or United Artists) owns the intellectual property of Bond, and Rare Ltd. owns the liscence and the custom IP used in thier game. Rare Ltd. can also choose to terminate the PD mod whenever they wish.

EA doesnt have a say in this.

It stopped being fun when Bond was involved in the first place.

I honestly thought Goldeneye and Perfect Dark were THE best games for the N64...I wasted so many hours playing multiplayer! http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
