Electronic Arts GoldenEye-Rogue Agent X Box Action Review

Electronic Arts GoldenEye-Rogue Agent


Description
GoldenEye: Rogue Agent is a first-person shooter that breaks all the rules by transporting players to the dark side of the Bond universe to experience life as a high-rolling, cold-hearted villain. As an aspiring 00 agent dismissed from MI6 for reckless brutality, you are hired as an enforcer by Auric Goldfinger, the wealthy super-villain with a lust for all things gold. Goldfinger is locked in a ruthless war against his archenemy, the brilliant scientist Dr. No. The prize is control of the world’s greatest criminal organization. A brutal encounter with Dr. No costs the player an eye, but Goldfinger’s technicians replace it with a gold-hued, synthetic eye, earning the player the name ‘GoldenEye’. Players have the ability to customize and upgrade their villain persona and wreak havoc as they make their unrelenting rise through the ranks.

Summary:
This game BLOWS! It is typical Electronic Arts garbage. Thank goodness for rental stores. This game is going to rip tons of loyal Goldeneye fans off. This "story" has nothing to do with the "Goldeneye" movie that EA shamelessly tries to capitolize on. It has to do with a rogue mi6 agent who was booted from service and serves the bad guys now who hooked him up with a replacement "goldeneye". A pathetic idea in which to drop the Goldeneye name to pump sales. Hopefully this will be enough to finally send EA the way of Acclaim, into an earned obscurity. I had the dude at GameStop pop this game into the display setup and I played about 5 minutes of it and knew right then, the hype and high expectations for this game were bugus. When I saw the very first evaporating and blood deprived dead guy, Goldeneye went immediately into the 19.99 bargin bin for me. After I rented it to try and give it a more worthy try, everything that I experienced my first try was validated. It sucks. The aiming is lunky and way more difficult than it needs to be. The weird eye effects are worthless because the enemy AI is so stupid that this game is a mindless run and gun. Who needs the eye to look and see where the baddies are hiding? Sorry luck if you paid 50.00 for this ripoff. This is the kind of crap EA is famous for. Hope you have fun in EA's new braindead dancing bad guy game. This game isn't worthy of a 3 rating. more like a 2 or 2.5 Really.
