Developer Rare has accused both fate and destiny for screwing over chances of a GoldenEye revival, and says that an agreement with Nintendo is ”long past”.
Being British they can’t help but keep a stiff upper lip, and say there’s still a chance for it someday. ”Stranger things have happened” believes Rare. Microsoft ended rumour last year.
”That was some time ago, my friend,” replied developer Rare to a fan probing for GoldenEye intel.
”Fate was against us that day. Destiny conspired to raise the hurdles even as we attempted to clear them, resulting in unpleasant groinal injury,” they said.
”I suspect we’re long past the stage where an agreement was on the cards, but you never know. Stranger things have happened… somewhere… probably.”
Rumours began swirling last year of a XBLA, PSN and WiiWare revival of Nintendo64’s classic Bond experience. Microsoft decided to put us out of our misery and declare the rumour false, before we started getting ahead of ourselves and a little too excited.
GoldenEye after all, made a whole generation of gamers fall in love with the proximity mine. Do you have fond memories of the Rare classic?
