GoldenEye:Source

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.

4 Player Split Screen?

[larsoncc]

Hey, let me dream here for a second. I have enough USB ports, and enough friends (shocking, I know)... So, how about a 4 player split screen mode? Heh? Heh?!?!

Oh, or... They could make a 4-player split screen mode where all your Internet buddies see your screen and visa versa.

Ummm... Look-at-your-buddy's-screen cheating goodness!

Oh come on. Don't act like you've never done that.

You know, it seems odd how a group of random fanboys can recreate one of the greatest gaming experiences ever with just some spare time and donations...

...and yet, developers with their multi-million dollar budgets and years of development can't give gamers what they want.

It just goes to show that corporate-folk are FRIGGIN-IDIOTS. (seriously, all we asked was for GE64 to be re-released with better graphics and maybe some extras. That's all. We didn't ask for this "Rogue Agent" crap. Do you hear us at all? EA? Nintendo? Rare? ANYONE? JUST TAKE 5 MINUTES TO REHASH AN OLD GAME AND WE WILL GIVE YOU MONEY! idiots...)

If this project gets shut down, I vote for revolt...

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.

Illegal use of trademarks and such

It boggles my mind why mod authors use trademarked graphics, logos, name, and similar. It's just a matter of time before they get shut down. I mean come on, you can't use the 007 logo on unofficial products morons! If they would just use similar but otherwise completely different names and logos then there is absolutely nothing anyone could do to shut them down.

It's like they know they're not going to finish the mod so why not rip-off whatever and it won't matter when they get shut down. Idiots.
