Xbox Boss Responds to GoldenEye 007 Xbox 360 Footage

@nintendoboy16: no, they're not. Activision, who held the Bond license at the time merely had to sign off, which they didn't the same as EA signed off on Simpsons arcade and Ubisoft on the Turtles arcade. And as someone who has long been involved in licensing, it's UA, not the MGM parent company, the Broccoli and Fleming estates only care when the royalty check arrives. Nintendo owns the original game design for Goldeneye, and they blocked it.

@Sepewrath: yeah, and it gets hard to think it was just a douche move, like get them to spend resources on development then just say "i change my mind", its gotta be more than that, somebody somewhere wanted more money than they were willing to pay for sure

@captnforever: are you serious? PD was miles ahead of Halo. I picked up Halo and I thought....this is Halo? This sucks...

@captnforever: I never said perfect dark pioneered anything it just perfected what goldeneye had without limits of being a movie license.

@sladakrobot: You have no idea what happened to make Nintendo change their mind. In 2010, Goldeneye Wii came out, perhaps it had something to do with that? Maybe Nintendo was trying to secure 007 franchise for Nintendo consoles.

@sladakrobot:Nintendo never actually owned Rare, they were independent, Nintendo just had a large stake in the company. When they decided to start making games for other platforms, Nintendo sold their stock which I believe was 49% and MS bought Rare's majority portion as well. Then MS ruined the company, though it looks like Sea of Thieves may finally be Rare of old returning.

@DantheMan9856: Then what does it entail? The graphics are clearly HD after the change..I don't understand exactly what you're saying...

@Purpledust: honestly, 5 years today only game with mom's cellphone or the tablet.

@Purpledust: Wow you got some bad assumption skills..it must be that purple dust you're on getting to that (obviously) little brain you have there. Or maybe you're just that stupid..I'm ASSUMING both. Lmao.

@sladakrobot: Yeah, you also have to pay rent and electricity in the home where you house that PC

@sladakrobot: Well if you got it on xbox, you'd have to have internet. Point is, you can have it now IF you have an average or even below average pc WITH internet of course. But c'mon who doesn't have access to some kind of internet nowadays anyway?? You're using internet right now to post this message.

@t0mmgunn: "Taking" Rare? Nintendo SOLD their stake in Rare to Microsoft when they decided to dump Rare, as their game quality was going down. I have a feeling that Nintendo was none too thrilled with Conker's Bad Fur Day.
