You could also instantly zoom in when using a gun with a scope.
The other killer feature was the split-screen multiplayer mode.

The real pull was the multiplayer game.

But what aboutGoldenEye 007?

The one thingGoldenEye 007definitely still has going for it, though, is the level design.
Some of the multiplayer environments were just fantastic.
Big enough to offer some variation but limited enough that you’d constantly have to watch your back.

That’s something that could definitely do with a modern touch.
But for everything else, maybe it’s better to leave this classic alone.
