GoldenEye:Source

Posted by Zonk on from the no-skool-like-the-old-skool dept.

Might E. Mouse writes "What do you get when you combined the James Bond atmosphere and classic gameplay of GoldenEye 007 on Nintendo 64 with the cutting edge graphics of Half Life 2? GoldenEye: Source of course! I'm not sure how this one is going to avoid the lawyers shutting them down, but there is an army of volunteer modellers and level designers hoping to just have a bit of fun recreating their favourite game." Copious screenshots, nice looking.

    Rare made Golden Eye and later Perfect Dark. The team responsible leaves Rare and some of the guys form Free Radical, others form Zoonami. Free Radical makes the Time Splitters series which is pretty popular, later they get bought out by EA.

    Most people who liked Golden Eye recommend the Timesplitters series.

    I like that the team attempting to remake Half Life in the Source engine had the good sense to call the project "Black Mesa: Source" and have been very careful about not using anything that belongs to Valve, the original makers. Surely that sort of common sense is....well...common sense?
