Goldeneye Reloaded is a fun remade game that I can truly say is better than the original. It was updated to the Wii last year and now it's on the Play Station 3 with HD graphics and it looks just about as good as it gets.
Presentation - The story is fun to just try to go in, shoot a couple guys, perform hand to hand kills, and then shoot some more baddies, but is that it? The story isn't the greatest and is kind of predictably cliche'd. You are agent 007 working against a Russian plot and are joined with agent 006.
Gameplay - The gameplay is solid. Like I said earlier, it's fun to just go in a room and kill a bunch of enemies but seriously; is that it?! The online is pretty fun with the occasional great kills.
The Verdict - Goldeneye Reloaded is a fun remake that could possibly last a while for gameplay but really that's all that makes this game. I give this an 8.0/10

When I started playing Goldeneye reloaded I wasn't really expecting much and boy was I wrong. This game had me hooked from start to finish with its fluid gameplay and great story. If you're lookinng to move on from Call of Duty I think this is worth a look.
You play as James Bond and that's all I'm going to tell because the story I found very interesting. THe campiagn has a fair amount of stealth. Now usually I don't like stealth but in this game I love it. There's also a unique thing you can do which is take pictures of intel with your cellphone or hack doors which is cool. The gameplay in Reloaded is very addictive and the campaign never seems to get boring. there's even a tank mission which is epic.

This game is so close to being marvelous, it's flaws become even more evident.
The graphics are good and the voice acting is great. Being rebuilt/reimagined hasn't hurt the game at all, it's actually pretty cool as they've maintained the feel of the original. Almost to a fault. It felt great to hold familiar weapons and hear the familiar sounds, but I can see how other may see that as a bad thing, especially when compared to the sounds of BF3.
This is definitely more of the "action" bond than the "stealth" bond, but it is enjoyable.
It's just hard to compare with the controls and feel of COD, which would have suited this game like a glove.
I almost have to recommend that you play this game with the Move, simply to keep your mind from comparing it games like COD.
It's so close to greatness, it's almost heartbreaking.

Overview
===================
This is probably my favorite Bond game of this console generation. However, it does have it's flaws. It is a decent rent. I wouldn't buy it until it hits the bargain bin.
The campaign is a lot of fun (strays from the movie...but oh well). The MI6 modes can extend the gameplay (think horde type mode). The online is extremely laggy at this point...unplayable (think Brink).
Pros
===============
1) you play as Bond
2) decent package of campaign & other modes
3) split-screen for online & MI6 modes
Cons
===============
1) the graphics are last gen (or very early PS3)
2) the online is HORRIBLY laggy
3) the AI are dumb

Cheap ending mars an otherwise decent shooter

"GoldenEye: Reloaded" had a lot to live up to. The original is regarded as one of the best shooters and one of the best Bond games. Sadly, Eurocom's remake doesn't quite fill the shoes of its predecessor. For the most part, the game controls fine. In keeping with the current films, Bond is now voiced by Daniel Craig, and is remade in Craig's image. Judi Dench provides the voice of M, and these two actors lift up an otherwise just capable cast. It's too bad Sean Bean didn't reprise his role of Trevaynian here, as the actor who does voice 006 is a pale imitation. Graphics are decent but not outstanding. NPCs seem locked in place, never moving as Bond moves among them. The enemy AI is often shaky, as foes will run into your line of fire more often than not. The game makes up for this stupidity by being a bit on the cheap side, as enemies can spot you through cover and at times are bullet sponges. The solo campaign is short- its six chapters can be beat in around 7 hours. Lacking in the campaign are those big Bond moments, though there are one or two to be found. The tank level is somewhat fun, but that's the only time Bond controls a vehicle. QTEs rear their heads in spots, made more difficult by quick appearances and small font that blends in rather than stands out, often leading to failure the first few times until you can memorize the order. The ending is especially bad with this, and the many cheap deaths toward the game's end become nearly frustrating enough to prevent some from finishing the campaign. In addition to the campaign, there are the MI6 missions, 11 levels taken from the game giving you directives such as eliminating all foes to relying on stealth only to dispatch your enemies. It makes for an okay diversion, but there's nothing outstanding here that would raise the score of the game for the solo player. Overall, this is mostly a decent and competent shooter, marred by a cheap and frustrating ending. It makes for an okay rental but not much more.
