Ten Years Ago, FPS History Was Made

On August 27th, 2007 in Uncategorized -

It’s hard to believe, but it’s actually ten years since GoldenEye was released on the N64. It was groundbreaking game on all fronts; visuals, weapons, controls, and of course, multiplayer. It was the first multiplayer shooter I ever played, and I can’t remember ever again having the sort of experience I got from playing GoldenEye 007 at that time, both single and multiplayer.

The interesting part is, GoldenEye was barely marketed, and when it was shown at E3 a few months earlier, it received almost no attention at all. It took everyone by surprise when it was released, getting perfect a score from many publications, and went on to sell 8 million copies worldwide. It is undoubtedly one of the greatest game ever made, and holds a special place in many gamers’ hearts. Use the comments section to share your GoldenEye experience and trivia.
