Bond could be back in action on the Xbox
A leaked set of achievements seem to indicate that classic console FPSGoldeneye 007could be coming to the Xbox ecosystem. As logged onTrueAchievements, a full set of rewards for a version ofGoldeneye 007has appeared online.
The nabbed list of achievements has 55 tasks to complete for 1,000 gamerscore. These include obvious ones, like completing maps like Dam and Facility on any difficulty. But there are others with more specific requirements, like some for unlocking Paintball Mode and the Golden Gun, or scoring 100 kills in multiplayer matches. My favorite is definitely the achievement for playing Slappers Only on Complex.

Back in 1997 when it first launched,Goldeneye 007was the hallmark of dorm room splitscreen parties on the Nintendo 64. Its legacy has remained over the years too, even as more re-releases and updated versions have arrived. That includes a Wii version ofGoldeneye 007andGoldeneye 007: Reloaded.
Still, a lot of fans want the original back in its original form. The classicGoldeneye 007wasnoticeably absentfrom theRare Replaycollection, though. And attempts have been made in the past by Rare and Microsoft, thoughthey reportedly ran into complications.
The achievements leaking certainly seem like a surefire smoking Golden Gun for a modernGoldeneyeport. And honestly, the time does seem right; my nostalgia for an older era of console shooters has been in overdrive with the launch ofHalo Infinite. I was also prone to the occasional splitscreen Slappers Only match myself, and I’m interested to see whatGoldeneyeis like, decades of console FPS development later.
