Goldeneye: Rogue Agent Review

[JIM2003]

I just got Goldeneye and this is what I think.
Goldeneye Rogue agent=GRA

GRA is a game that is definitely worth $30. The only thing that I didnt like about it is the sound. HOLY SH@$ The sound is horrible. If you don't want your ears to bleed then turn the sound off. The Gameplay is very good. There are controls that are the same as metroid. The bottom screen does seem cramped every once and a while. One of the best features of GRA is the single-cartridge Multiplayer. I have already played Sigle cart with my firend earlier. The best part about the single cart multiplayer is that there is no background music. You can only play on one level with single cart multi. The entire story mode I assume to be of medium length because after playing for 30 min. On my file it said 14% complete.
From reading the manual I see that in multi-cart multiplayer there are 4 modes, Team showdown:essentially Team Deathmatch, Showdown:Deathmatch, Tug-of-war: To difficult to explain, and Domination: You and your enemy each begin with 200 pts. You have to try and turn a bunch of colored squares around the map to your color to decrease your opponents score.The first to get there opponents score to zero wins.

Graphics: 8/10 Very nice and smooth graphics. There could be more textures though.

Gameplay: 8/10 The gameplay is very nice but the bottom screen gets cramped.

Sound:3/10 Here is a qoute from IGN's review "Awful, awful sound engine. It's downright terrible. Turn down the music if you want to save your sanity."

Lasting appeal: 8.5/10 This is definitely a game that you will keep coming back to. The multiplayer alone is worth the $30.

Overall: 8/10 I enjoy this game. I reccomend it.

Sounds like their concentration on the mutliplayer payed off. I'd get it, but considering the metroid skill level of the few DS owners around here, they wouldn't put up a fun fight.

ah i hardly ever get to play multiplayer but i may start to as i may carry my DS to school, but still i'll look into this once i get some cash.

Sounds good but still i think i will wait for a good online game instead of spenidng my money on games that get old in a week.

Good review, but not enough to convince me. My money will be staying in my pocket until further notice (aka when Splinter Cell comes out ;))

Just out of interest, I know you're not a professional reviewer or anything, but surely two 8's, an 8.5 and a three would be lower than an eight overall? Unless your taking other aspects of the game in there...

Yes, My Overall score is just my Score for the game. I don't find the average of the scores.
