Rumor has it that Rare still keeps the afromentioned finished version of the remaster shelved.However, multiple developers including "Oddjaw2", does mention Nintendo being an issue, but this claim does not rest well since we've seen multiple Rare / N64 titles remastered on Xbox since then. It is more likely that it was due to MGM / Danjaq not agreeing on licensing terms with Microsoft and Rare - As mentioned by Mark Edmonds, he does not remember ever contacting MGM or Danjaq about this port in the first place. It is said that Nintendo could've been one of the main reasons this port was never released, but the GoldenEye community cannot agree on this matter as Nintendo never had the ownership of the Bond IP or GoldenEye.The leaked copy of the game does not feature an online mode on Xbox Live, but does have the ability to play multiplayer through System Link alongside standard Local split-screen. The game features the original graphics as well as updated graphics - though slightly unfinished in the leaked copy - which can be changed at will during gameplay in all modes and at any time with a single button press. One notable difference is the exclusion of separate save slots: the game boots up straight to a mode selection screen. It is worth mentioning that the leaked ROM seems to be the same version used in the leaked video by Rare Thief from 2016, as the original video from 2008 features bugs not present here.īeing a faithful remake of the original, the leaked game plays almost exactly like the original, differing only slightly in controls, due to the dual-analog nature of modern controllers and the different buttons available on the Xbox 360 controller, and modernized graphics.

Even then, many people didn't believe it was real and instead pointed out how it was "just an HD texture pack running on an emulator".Īfter rumors and videos of the remaster circulated for many years on the Internet, in late January 2021 a GoldenEye "streamer" on YouTube received a leaked copy of the game and premiered a video showcasing all missions and part of the multiplayer mode - far more of a comprehensive look at the game than had ever been seen previously (Leaked videos online). At first not many people believed the leaker up until they decided to upload a video showing the game in action later in 2008. The leaker listed the new features of this "absolutely fantastic port of the original game" on said thread and some screenshots which are sadly lost. The first public mention of the remaster was an information leak from "Oddjaw2" back in November 2007.

However, this remaster was shelved largely due to Microsoft and MGM not being able to come to an agreement for licensing, as a result of which it went unpublished. From 2007 to 2008, developers at Rare worked on a faithful remake to the original game which featured both the original and updated graphics - as well as Online Multiplayer through Xbox Live.
