Dude, trust me on this: Goldeneye is an FPS on a console done right. Don't judge it by the likes of Halo. It is really worth getting just for the multiplayer. Back when I had friends, Goldeney was THE game by which one proved his manhood, or settled disputes when my one friends mother decided there was too much blood on the carpet. We played license to kill mode so much.... when I was in Platteville my roomate and his cousin saw me playing and challenged me. I warned them that I was pretty good at it, but they didn't listen.
