On sale Wednesday, the latest issue of Xbox World 360 blows open Rare's retooled classic with never-seen shots and hands-on details. How different is it? What improvements have been made? What does it feel like on the 360 pad? And how can we make sure this incredible remake does see the light of day? Xbox World 360 tells all.
Update: We know that the magazine article will have details and impressions about the XBLA version of GoldenEye 007 when it was being developed, but its current development status is very much up in the air. The accepted word on the street is that the game is still at a canceled status, it's just that Xbox World 360 has information regarding the game when it was being worked on. We apologize for the confusion.

My thoughts:
Uh oh... the important line here is "how we can make sure this incredible remake does see the light of day." Sounds like these guys just broke a press blackout to try and tout a game, which could mean some baaaaaad stuff is going to happen. Major lawsuits, and possibly the end of the magazine.
Obviously Microsoft wouldn't be giving some random British magazine a big exclusive like this. It looks like this is the game that was developed then not published because of licensing disputes, and from their wording nothing has changed, except this magazine's future. These people are going to be in trouble. Good to know it exists though I guess... I'm sure we'll find out more Wednessday, at the funeral of Xbox World 360 magazine.
