After Perfect Dark came out, I never went back to Goldeneye. All the people going back to Goldeneye expecting good gameplay need to wake up. People say that both games are completely outdated, but Goldeneye really is the true outdated game of the two. It was good for it's time, but PD completely replaced it. It was basically a massive reskin of Goldeney, but with tons of extra content.
Try going back to PD's multiplayer, then you'll realize that besides the visuals/animations/lack of online, it actually has much more content and replay value than many of today's games. This is a fact. I used to play that game for countless hours. The amount of options and variety that the game had is pretty unforgettable.
Though it had a 8-bot limit, you also can't deny that it probably has the best bot system than anygame out today. Besides being able to choose about of like 6 difficulties, there was also a list of "personalities" that can be placed on each bot. They also weren't limited to the typical "red" or "blue" teams - if you wanted you could have 4 teams of 2. Then throw in the ability to give them specific commands. If I remember right, I think a bot could even be told to attack a specific player. It makes UT3/KZ2's bots look like half-assed trash (though when I say that, I especially mean it for KZ2).
Anyone saying that the game is completely outdated probably never played the game. Nowdays, a game could get away with bad gameplay as long as the graphics are good - look back at all the threads discussing KZ2's graphics. Now try to find some threads praising it's gameplay......much more harder, right? Actually some of the first pieces of info related to it's gameplay went somethin like, "No splitscreen, no co-op". I'm not sayin it's a bad game, because it's a really good one, but GG just doesn't get that special respect from me that a rare few other devs do.
