News: James Bond's DS is secretly equipped with a laser.
Here's a fun bit of Comic-Con news that managed to slip through the cracks this weekend: Activision officially unveiled
GoldenEye 007 for the DS.
The game will be developed by n-Space (the team is also behind the DS version of
Call of Duty: Black Ops) and promises to push the DS to its "absolute limits."
Here's what n-Space had to say about their latest handheld project:
Covert Action on the DS
GoldenEye 007 is a covert action game, using a combination of tactical shooting encounters and stealth ops situations to let the player experience what it truly feels like to execute a mission as James Bond 007.
GoldenEye 007 is a Уthinking man's shooter,Ф rewarding brains over bullets. Bond's greatest weapon is his mind, and the player is rewarded for making tactical decisions rather than charging in and spraying gunfire. Environmental kills, unconventional routes, distractions, and silent takedowns are the norm in GoldenEye 007.
GoldenEye 007 is built from the ground up to take full advantage of the Nintendo DS's special features. The player also uses the Touch Screen for feats of both strength and skill Ц smashing through barricades, escaping a doomed helicopter, and leaping from the Arkhangelsk dam!
Unparalleled Handheld Multiplayer
GoldenEye 007 recreates the classic fun of the original title with a focus on multiplayer first-person gaming never before seen on the DS.
GoldenEye 007 supports 6 players in both wireless and Wi-Fi connections across the globe. A full suite of game modes are available, with vintage modes like Golden Gun and Flag Tag making a return alongside some new game types.
A full spread of modifiers allows players to change the state of the game to create a whole new experience in an all-new way.
An enormous number of multiplayer awards are available for players to unlock; guaranteeing hours of both cooperative and competitive play online.
Sounds pretty good to me. GoldenEye 007 will be available on the DS and Wii this Fall.
