Goldeneye 007...never coming?
And yet, Banjo is coming to XBLA without any of the many Nintendo references omitted. Kind of strange.
As much as I'd like to see this game on XBLA, I hope Rare/Microsoft fixes some of the old-age aiming mechanics.
Golden Eye for XBLA was finished and ready to roll... then Nintendo said hell no too letting Microsoft have it. So the game was scrapped. It's such a damn shame. I'm pretty sure thats how it went down.. I could be wrong.. but I know somebody pulled the plug on it right at the end of development.

the only difference was that nintendo was willing but for a price microsoft wasnt willing to pay
"Well dosen't Ubisoft own the James Bond rights or something? That has to be a problem also."Well its actually activision but, there are so many licensing issues. Nintendo, Microsoft, The film studio, Pierce brosnan, Other actors, Activision and probably more. It would be a logistical nightmare. And with so many people wanting a cut of the profits, it would end up costing a fortune.
Damn you, legal issues.
I'd like to see more N64 games for XBLA. Banjo-Kazooie is a great start, but I want Blast Corps, Perfect Dark, Turok, everything!
