History Videogame / GoldeneyeWii

* AdaptationalModesty: In this game Xenia Onatopp wears a white blouse and light armor vest and shorts, which is significantly more modest and practical than the black latex crop top she wore in the original N64 game. Her CombatSadomasochist tendencies are also significantly downplayed.

A synopsis of the updated story [[Synopsis/GoldeneyeWii can be found here.]] For the other two games starring Craig's Bond, see ''Videogame/BloodStone'' and ''[[Videogame/DoubleOhSevenLegends 007 Legends]]''.

* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler: Zukovsky in the film goes on to help Bond in ''Film/TheWorldisNotEnough''. In the game, he was killed by Xenia.]]

* StuckItems: The P99 is always in your base loadout and can never be swapped for something found on the mission. Causes some FridgeLogic on the Russian Archives level as you start off with 200+ bullets for your P99 in your inventory like any other mission yet you clearly see Ourumov disengage the magazine from the gun and empty the loaded bullets. You're also stuck with a silencer, which is perfect for stealth sections.

* NintendoHard: ''Dear God'', [[HarderThanHard 007 Classic Mode.]] Harkening back to the original ''GoldenEye,'' it removes the [[RegeneratingHealth health regen]] and replaces it with the classic dual-health bar system (the yellow one for player health and the blue one for body armor). That may not sound bad at first, but you'll need body armor more than ever because you take damage ''very'' quickly. And any health you lost ''stays'' lost, even if you restart at a checkpoint. '''DO NOT''' pick this mode unless you're either a masochist or an expert at the game.

* CycleOfHurting: In team multiplayer. The spawns are bad because when someone dies, they respawn around a teammate's location. When everyone on a side is taken out, the other side can gradually confine the opposing side into a small section of a map and go to town on them. The most infamous map you can ''Spawn Lock" on is Outpost.

* MoreDakka: The Vargen FH-7, successor of the infamous RC-P90 from Nintendo 64; though its magazine capacity has been reduced to the more realistic 50 rounds, it's still quite the bullet-hose.

Naturally, considering the original was groundbreaking ''[[NostalgiaFilter 15 years ago]]'', the gameplay has been significantly altered to reflect modern advancements in the FPS genre.

* DarkerAndEdgier

* {{Frameup}}: Happens to Bond ''thrice'' in the game [[spoiler:-- first for the death of Valentin Zhukovsky, then Skye Briggs, then later for Russian Defense Minister Mishkin.]]

* NeverSayDie: Averted in singleplayer but zig-zagged in multiplayer. Players are "eliminated" upon death, but during the Heroes gameplay mode M will actually say "OurHeroIsDead"!

* RareGuns: As mentioned in AKA47 above, the WA2000. This is a sniper rifle with fewer than 200 units in existence, and yet turns up multiple times in the campaign. Same goes for the SCAR, which arms no less than half of Janus' forces despite being barely used even by the US.

** In the "Dam" level, the two sentries complain about the lack of action and excitement in their jobs, right before Bond and Trevelyan surprise them from behind.

* HollywoodHacking: You can hack into drone guns, defense mechanisms, door locks, and the like with the push of one button on your Smartphone.

* InformedAttribute: Tanner states that Zukovsky's only identifying feature is a favial scar. When we see him, however, his arms and chest are covered in tattoos.
* InkSuitActor: In addition to Daniel Craig lending his likeness to Bond, Alec Trevelyan, Xenia Onatopp, Valentin Zukovsky, and Natalya Simonova are modeled after their voice actors (Elliot Cowan, Kate Magowan, Alec Newman, and Kirsty Mitchell, respectively).

** The Beretta 93R (called the "Kunara V" in-game) is a ''fully-automatic handgun''. In real life, this weapon is fired as a three-round burst, which is its alternative fire in-game, but it defaults to full-auto when you pick it up. Eats up a lot of ammo, though.

* OneHitPolykill: Possible with a sniper rifle.

* ProtectionMission: One part of the game requires you to protect Natalya from enemy gunfire while she tries to stop the Goldeneye satellite.
* PunctuatedForEmphasis: ''"BRING. ME. HIS. HEAD!"''

* ShootTheDangerousMinion: In reference to the movie, the cutscene at the end of Facility has Ourumov shoot one of his mooks after said mook starts shooting at Bond while he's taking cover behind some warheads. And this ''after'' Ouromov warned another soldier against shooting.
* SillinessSwitch: Paintball Mode.

* SpeedRun: Completing each level the first time unlocks the speed run for that level; beating them unlocks cheats and goodies.

* StuckItems: The P99 is always in your base loadout and can never be swapped for something found on the mission. Causes some FridgeLogic on the Russian Archives level as you start off with 200+ bullets for your P99 on your person like any other mission yet you clearly see Ourumov disengage the magazine from the gun and empty the loaded bullets. You're also stuck with a silencer, which is perfect for stealth sections.

* DynamicLoading

* InsecurityCamera: If you are spotted by a security camera, additional reinforcements quickly arrive. However, ''shooting out'' the cameras doesn't warrant any reaction from whoever's on monitor duty.

* LimitedLoadout: Unlike the original, Bond can only carry his P99 and two other weapons.

** In Team Deathmatch multiplayer, when an MI-6 team is about to win, this is what M says along the lines of "Never Give Up, Keep Trying, etc."

* RageQuit: Of course the online aspect of the game would not be complete without people quitting. However, it gets worse when the host quits since the game immediately ends, screwing over anyone who would have legitimately won or anyone on the losing team who earned a lot of points.

* RareGuns: As mentioned in AKA47 above, the WA 2000. This is a sniper rifle with fewer than 200 units in existence, and yet turns up multiple times in the campaign. Same goes for the SCAR, which arms no less than half of Janus' forces despite being barely used even by the US.

* EliteMooks: Any mook wearing a flak jacket is going to be much harder to kill. They tend to have dark, ominous voices as well.

** Alternatively, the fail could fall on every member of his security team for listening to a stranger with a Russian accent, wearing their uniform but not part of tbe unit, waving a gun, telling them to kill their boss's guest.

* PragmaticAdaptation:
** A number of changes were made to the ''Goldeneye'' plot to fit with the change in timeline to 2010. Most notably, 006's motivations are changed from getting revenge for Britain's betrayal of his Lienz Cossack parents (since such a motivation would have him in his early 70s by 2010) to anger over the War on Terror and the Great Financial Meltdown, and how big banks made a killing while everyone else suffered.
** [[spoiler:Zukovsky is killed about three minutes after you meet him. After all, he does die in the films eventually, and it's not like they're planning on remaking ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' later.]]
** [[spoiler: Ouromov dies like a bitch at Xenia's hand, rather than Bond having an epic standoff having to gun down the General himself.]]

* {{Frameup}}: Happens to Bond ''twice'' in the game [[spoiler:-- first for the death of Valentin Zhukovsky, then later for Russian Defense Minister Mishkin.]]

* StuckItems: The P99 is always in your base loadout and can never be swapped for something found on the mission. Causes some FridgeLogic on the Russian Archives level as you start off with 200+ bullets for your P99 on your person like any other mission yet you clearly see Ourumov disengage the magazine from the gun and empty the loaded bullets.

* AllOrNothingReloads: Averted with three of the five shotguns(SEGS 550, PT-9 Interdictus and Drumhead Type-12), as you can interrupt the reload at any time and the shells Bond places in the gun can still be fired. The other two shotguns (SLY 2020 and Masterton M-557) plays this trope straight since they use magazines. It's also played straight with all the other guns.

** Trevelyan says as much when Bond wants to stop and take a picture of something for further analysis. The way he says it sounds like he's hiding something...

* AllOrNothingReloads: Averted with the shotguns, you can interrupt the reload at any time and the shells Bond places in the gun can still be fired. Played straight with all the other guns.

* InkSuitActor: In addition to Daniel Craig lending his likeness to Bond, Alec Trevelyan, Xenia Onatopp, Valentin Zukovsky, nd Natalya Simonova are modeled after their voice actors (Elliot Cowan, Kate Magowan, Alec Newman, and Kirsty Mitchell, respectively).
