Graslu00, I have tried this level many times and I can’t make it through on 00 Agent. I don’t remember how far I’ve made it. I don’t even remember doing it on Secret Agent.
Wow I’ve read like 20 comments and no one mentions that this guy has taken the ultimate hardest route on purpose, literally exposing himself to hundreds of potential hits compared to the simpler route. Dealing with the large room after killing Jaws is legendary. Incredible run, good job
That hissing grunting of bond getting hurt and then being pushed back was always effective. I don't know why exactly but it literally hurt. You really want to avoid it. Thats good design
Ha, I remember one time I did with like 10 seconds to go in the countdown. My young idiot self didn't think of trying to climb the ladder during the countdown and narrow the place any enemies could find me.
@@iTZ_xalechikx5137 it looks blurry now on it but back then we just went from super nintendo 2d graphics to this. This was like a quantum leap forward in graphics.
I see both extra missions on GoldenEye as a respectul nod to Moore's tenure as Bond. Aztec is completely based on 1979's Moonraker and Egyptian is a blend of previous films in the franchise with Roger: Live and Let Die (Baron Samedi), The Man with the Golden Gun (the golden gun, obviously) and The Spy Who Loved Me (the Egyptian setting).
I think another reason is that the less serious tone of the Moore era made it easier to make bonus levels based on their themes (e.g. there isn't really an equivalent to Jaws or Baron Samedi in the Connery or Dalton films.)
@@alexsilva28 Grant is strong, but there's nothing bizarre or funny about him. He's a professional killer and acts like it. Jaws is an abnormally large man who doesn't appear to be very bright and whose favored approach is biting people to death with his steel teeth. Bond kicks him in the gonads only to realize that region is steel as well.
I have to say, beating this level on 00 Agent was no joke at all! I finally beat it today, but for real, it took me literally between 100-200 tries to beat it, and by the time I was done, I had such little health left over. The Aztec level is honestly the hardest level in the game!
Finally, after more than 20 years, now that I'm an adult I've unlocked this level. I can't describe how happy I am to be able to play after all these years.
This is the hardest and craziest route.. So much adrenaline.. I miss this feeling on this stage. The glass lure strat kind of killed a bit of the excitement by skipping the Jaws battle. You handled the spawning guards in a masterful way. I love your content!
It's hard to overstate just how important-and how difficult-this was in 1997. At the time, there were no online tutorials. No TH-cam. You had to power your way through it all, by trial and error. In this video, those ceiling guns were taken out so quickly that you might not even know they were there: but learning _exactly_ where they were mounted, and just how far you can lean out, and precisely when you should duck in for cover; these movements all became hardwired into your muscle memory. Reactions became instantaneous. Focus completely absorbed you. The maps became like home. Nerves turned to steel. Ego fell away, became irrelevant. You were there, in the zone. And eventually, after countless hours, innumerable deaths, and endless play-throughs, some of us became absolute beasts at this game. In my own circle, for a time, I was unbeatable. 26 years now, dozens of consoles, and literally thousands of video games later, I still regard this one game as THE paradigm for FPS game design. There's a mint, sealed copy of the N64 game in my nightstand. And to this day, whenever I play a shooter, I still look behind me obsessively because of this game. You know what? The Aztec on 00 arguably wasn't even the toughest part!
@@VespasianJudea Of course _Perfect Dark_ is a great game, but there isn't anything that's nearly as groundbreaking about it in comparison; it's more like a refinement to _Goldeneye_ than an original concept. Next, _Timesplitters_ was an even further development to Dr. Doak's vision (and its sequel was probably the best of the entire line), but it nevertheless lacks the original force and cultural impact of N64 Bond. After _Wolfenstein 3D,_ 007 was THE progenitor of FPSs: everything since, from _Halo_ to _Metroid Prime_ to _Far Cry_ to _BioShock_ and _Modern Warfare,_ has been derivative. And none of them have been as relatively good. _Portal 2,_ almost.
@@pocket83squared my guy it wasn't a TH-cam guide, but we had GameFAQs and IGN64 (as it was then known) for walkthroughs and tips. Probably a few other sites I don't remember. Not to mention "strategy guides" - physical books lost to history that were a full walkthrough of the game and were occasionally bundled with games on sales at game stores.
Dobbys Boggart ok I will throw history at you sir so be prepared,during somewhere around the 15th century the Spainiards went to the Americas to take land yet they Ended up in Mexico so then they fucked up the Aztecs that live in Mexico then it became a Spanish Land Till the people revolted Spain from the Land which became Mexico today, I hope that this is correct because I shortened it
Walking the line between bravery and recklessness, Real Men take the pit route. That said, I learned so much about trying the upper path in Secret Agent that I can clear it consistently in 00 as long as the first two rooms don't go atrociously bad.
I love it how the guards in this game always kill themselves when they have explosives. Happens with the second group of guards in control a lot as well.
I still feel the same emotion when I play this game at agent 00 level in the big room to face Jaws and then get to the room with the guys with lasers from when I was a kid. Today as an adult, my heart beats so much to this day when I climb the rocket ladder during the countdown.
I remember completing this level for the first time on 00 on a Monday night. On Tuesday my younger brother told his classmates. On Wednesday he came home with six cartridges for me to unlock the Egyptian level on….
I don't know if there's ever been a weapon I found as satisfying as the moonraker laser. The sweet zap it made. The way you could feel the impact just punch into dudes. Awesome.
I've seen plenty of videos of people clearing out this level, and you are the first one who go to the opposite way. It's way harder, but it's cooler. Looks like you know where the guards are coming from, you nailed the mission
I've always found it faster and more entertaining. You have to kill Jaws, then complete objective A which is nearly at the start, then just go to the "main" part of the map. If you go through the "normal" way, you have to get to Jaws going through the whole map, go back to the start to complete objective A, then go back again to the main part of Aztec. Probably there's close to no difference in time since you still have to destroy the turrets and all that, but I still think it's a bit faster, if not, I just prefer that way hah.
Graslu00 You're right, after watching this video, I turned on my n64 and tried your way. I got killed in my 5 attempts lmaoo, Killing Jaws triggers guards to come after you, and they come from everywhere and I'm not as skilled as you are hahha
So much trial and error spent trying to beat this in my youth. Hardest mission in the game IMO. What I loved, though, was that every mission felt so different. Objectives might be similar but you had different weapons at your disposal, the number of guards could vary (like here it was unlimited), and some rewarded stealth more than just blasting away with loud assault weapons.
I've made it too hear on 00 Agent. It's crazy how good of a game this forever will be, I remember me and my cousins at like 4 years old playing 4 player split screen, it was litterally a family tradition for a long time.
Damn I remember unlocking this in ‘03 & took me 3 years to pass it on all Difficulties thinking that I finally unlocked Egyptian knowing I had to pass everything on 00 Agent
Hey man...Believe me, it's not so hard on 00 Agent. It's all about being patient and not rushing it. I used to never get through the first 3 rooms alive. Now I beat this level 9/10 times. If you want more tips let me know.
I started out on secret agent and realized it wasn't too tricky. Like I said, just being patient and luring the bad guys out instead of chasing them. The stair trick on Jaws helps. I also make sure all the bad guys have been cleared out of the computer room. Some experts can rush it and finish no problem. I need at least 10 minutes each time..
Just take it slowly and be very careful.It took me about 25 attempts but it can be done.My advice is to go the top way rather than through the tunnel and get to the body armour without damage.Then you can face Jaws with plenty of health.Save plenty of ammo for the assault rifle which is more powerful than the laser and get close up to him.
I like how in this game the bullets go through there bodies. Such as the RCP90 and Assult rifles and moon rakers. You don’t get realistic dynamics like that with FPS shooter games like todays.
BRO FACTS. and they sound the MOST Realistic too. or Better, falcon has DEPT when i first played the game it was so satisfying shooting the falcon in PD. goldeneye has dept too. and QUAKE 2. something bout those old n64 Games. smh #Genius
A big, big, thank you for the help installing the mouse & keyboard mod for Goldeneye, I finally managed to play with the right aim sensitivity and finished the game 100%! :D When I was a kid, I couldn't beat every level on 00 Agent difficulty because I didn't understand English, although I missed very few levels like Train, Depot, Control and Caverns! But now everything was different and I managed to beat even the ones I was stuck at. Thank you again for making me return back to my childhood, this was one of my favorite games and a piece of my heart, I'll never get tired of playing this legendary FPS. :)
0:47 Supposedly the hieroglyph on the very left is Crash Bandicoot being tortured, but I still can't make out the picture after fifteen years of hearing about it
Not at all! Sounds like one of those cheap rumors made back then for the Sony vs Nintendo wars lol. Here's the real world counterparts - 4.bp.blogspot.com/-lZvvANG7dlg/Ufea2ltjL-I/AAAAAAAAATs/4Rt3CCdRGRM/s1600/aztec512.jpg
That's the majority of us,i played this game when it came out and beat it in agent after several thousand tries,lol,a few days ago i started playing it again, i played it on easy first to get familiar with it and I'm now on 00, i just got done with caverns and I'm dreading the cradle, i know i may sound crazy but id rather deal with Aztec than the cradle,for some reason i hate that level, i think its the top to bottom effect,everything leads down to doom and suffering, ha ha ha
Thanks for the nostalgia. My friend had a copy with Aztec and the second secret level (I can't remember what it was called but I do remember the golden gun under glass!) We would play it.
It cannot be understated how tough levels like Aztec or Control were on 007 Agent in an era where information was not readily accessible on the internet. At least as a kid, even if you had internet, your parents may not have let you on it or roam free searching for answers. It was constant trial and error of different paths and strategies to survive each step, and then execute each step to succeed. Aztec was perhaps the most brutally difficult. Lasers melted you and if you forgot to destroy a turret you're cooked. Jaws was also really tough, but I recall figuring out that if you run right up to him he can't harm you because his arms/gun go behind you. So I'd lure him around into that small room leading into the hall and then just give him a hug and fire away. Even in the beginning, after the first room, I got so familiar with where the soldier behind the crates was that I'd use the rifle which pierces through doors to kill him without opening the door.
Holding up the home phone line was never a popular choice in a 90s household, I don't care where you are from, lol. And considering Internet charges before those mass mailed AOL disks came to your home. It was truly an amazement that any kid or teenager could get gaming tips back then. Hell, I still remember my friend showing me a print out of all the doom codes from a matrix printer. I was at awe at the achievement itself.
I got all the cheats legit in this game when I was about 10. I still remember getting invincibility on Facility, it was insane it took hrs and hrs and hrs of non stop repeating the level over and over and restarting with any even minor mistake. I was literally obsessed with this game though. I played it so much my friends would 3v1 me in multiplayer and still get rekt. This was top 3 hard levels though. Possibly Control was harder...maybe.
@@MrKevin486 yeah man control was a bastard on 00. Bunker 2 I found to be a wanker of a level as well. The only cheat I couldn't get was the "2 X RCP 90" one. To this day I still feel inadequate 😂
But the one and only weapon was the classic Shotgun. This weapon in the hand of a very skilled player (like I was) was the ultimative weapon (Grenade Launcher excluded)!
I was like 5 or 6 when we got our 64 and I remember having to get my older brothers to beat most of the levels and honestly I'm still not sure I could beat half of these. Goldeneye and perfect Dark were tough.
One of the things I love the most about this game is its diversity of level design and assets, there are doors, floor and roof tiles, walls exclusive to every level, nowadays there are extensive libraries of assets and the devs just clutter the levels with everything they can.
I still remember to this day when I didn't beat this level 25 years ago. It really taught me that there were some things I couldn't be, like a secret agent, for example, and I should aim for attainable goals, such as being a telemarketer or retail worker (the two careers on my CV today). Fuck you, 007.
My uncle told me a story about this mission. Just remember I’ve never played this game, so if I say something that doesn’t make sense, just remember. So he told me that when he was young he played this game, and of course got this secret level. So he spent so long on it, and one time he was at the end, and he bumped into something (I don’t know of the time ran out because he just bumped into it, or something) and he failed. So he got up and threw his controller as hard as he could at the ground, and it shattered everywhere.
Looking back at middle school in the late 90s....if it was known you had a Goldeneye cartridge with Egyptian unlocked, you had the respect of your peers.
currently playing through this game on n64 but when I was kid I used so many cheats I never knew how to play this game correctly. it's actually pretty damn hard on just secret agent. the few 00 agent missions I did killed me lol.
+Josh I think everyone did that as a kid, lol. Some of the missions are really hard, indeed, but once you know where they are and how to keep them from coming on levels like Bunker or Archives, it gets easier.
+Graslu00 so it is true some levels they just come keep coming and don't stop? lol because man there's times where I kept killing and I'm like really bruhhhhh now how in the helllllllll did you have this many guys?
Yes that's true, levels like Bunker II or Archives have unlimited guards. You can use silenced weapons in Bunker II to stop them or slappers only in Archives.
Ugh. Memories of playing this so many times trying to get it right. Actually recorded when I finally did on a video cassette. What a b-word doing it on the highest difficultly level on the N64. One wrong move and you're gone. One wrong shooting animation of a bad guy and you're screwed.
I did this mission back around 1998 with max difficulty settings for the all bonds. After two days straight I finished the challenge only to find out it was an April fools prank.....sigh
24 years... 24 years and I have not passed 00 Aztec.... I always get shot on that f*cking ladder, or on the f*cking platform. Today I decided I could not pass this stage alone, I need help, and that's why I'm here folks. My name is Janis and I'm a Goldeneye-holic. Thanks for sharing this, I haven't had much luck doing the level backwards so to speak, but I'm going to give it another go! Right... Hope you've got a vid on 00 Agent Control room, haven't passed that either - That stupid b*tch Natalya always ruins everything
this video was awesome I remember passing this mission when I got it in Secret Agent I passed it all excited knowing I had to pass everything in 00 Agent to get Egyptian lol this was the most impossible one
How was I unaware that you could jump down near the beginning of the level to a lower place and do the entire map in essentially reverse. I've never seen and I was the kid in the neighbourhood everyone gave their Goldeneye cartridge to to get all the cheats unlocked.

lmao the bad guy that rolled and died after the roll 😀
A big, big, thank you for the help installing the mouse & keyboard mod for Goldeneye, I finally managed to play with the right aim sensitivity and finished the game 100%! :D
When I was a kid, I couldn't beat every level on 00 Agent difficulty because I didn't understand English, although I missed very few levels like Train, Depot, Control and Caverns! But now everything was different and I managed to beat even the ones I was stuck at. Thank you again for making me return back to my childhood, this was one of my favorite games and a piece of my heart, I'll never get tired of playing this legendary FPS. :)
0:47 Supposedly the hieroglyph on the very left is Crash Bandicoot being tortured, but I still can't make out the picture after fifteen years of hearing about it
Not at all! Sounds like one of those cheap rumors made back then for the Sony vs Nintendo wars lol.
Here's the real world counterparts - 4.bp.blogspot.com/-lZvvANG7dlg/Ufea2ltjL-I/AAAAAAAAATs/4Rt3CCdRGRM/s1600/aztec512.jpg
Makes a lot more sense now. I don't understand how people thought that was Crash in anyway. Glad I can put that "easter egg" to rest. Good eye BTW
dude I played this so much when I was a kid that I knew what death sound was coming next. In fact, I still do. Lol great times
I always went the other way to sneak up on Jaws
Same
As someone who has died hundreds of times, but eventually beat this level on 00 agent: This level suuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.
That's the majority of us,i played this game when it came out and beat it in agent after several thousand tries,lol,a few days ago i started playing it again, i played it on easy first to get familiar with it and I'm now on 00, i just got done with caverns and I'm dreading the cradle, i know i may sound crazy but id rather deal with Aztec than the cradle,for some reason i hate that level, i think its the top to bottom effect,everything leads down to doom and suffering, ha ha ha
That feeling when you finally beat this hellish level on 00 agent difficulty and unlock that Egyptian level.
I died so many times on the mission. Especially at the part with them four turrets.
Thanks for the nostalgia. My friend had a copy with Aztec and the second secret level (I can't remember what it was called but I do remember the golden gun under glass!) We would play it.
Egyptian! :)
@@Graslu00 thanks
bruh currently playing this on secret agent. and wtf haha after I kill jaws there's always someone behind me!!!! it's annoying wtf
+Josh Killing Jaws triggers the double laser guards, those are unlimited.
You lead jaws up to the stairs where you enter the machine gun turret room and stay on opposite side of jaws and he wont shoot at you
@@Graslu00 Actually, it the card he drops that triggers them. Until you grab it, they don't spawn (at least from my experience in real hardware).
@@LITTLE1994 I didn't know that!
It cannot be understated how tough levels like Aztec or Control were on 007 Agent in an era where information was not readily accessible on the internet. At least as a kid, even if you had internet, your parents may not have let you on it or roam free searching for answers.
It was constant trial and error of different paths and strategies to survive each step, and then execute each step to succeed.
Aztec was perhaps the most brutally difficult. Lasers melted you and if you forgot to destroy a turret you're cooked. Jaws was also really tough, but I recall figuring out that if you run right up to him he can't harm you because his arms/gun go behind you. So I'd lure him around into that small room leading into the hall and then just give him a hug and fire away.
Even in the beginning, after the first room, I got so familiar with where the soldier behind the crates was that I'd use the rifle which pierces through doors to kill him without opening the door.
Holding up the home phone line was never a popular choice in a 90s household, I don't care where you are from, lol. And considering Internet charges before those mass mailed AOL disks came to your home. It was truly an amazement that any kid or teenager could get gaming tips back then. Hell, I still remember my friend showing me a print out of all the doom codes from a matrix printer. I was at awe at the achievement itself.
This was my favourite mission to play I mean the eerie vibe of it scared me as a kid but I still played it no matter what
All these years later and still everybody forgets to reopen the Launch Bay before inputting the launch sequence.
Lmao I could barely beat this stage on Agent.
Nate Pallasigue funny thing is you can only go to cradle on agent or unless you beat it on secret or 00 agent
I got all the cheats legit in this game when I was about 10. I still remember getting invincibility on Facility, it was insane it took hrs and hrs and hrs of non stop repeating the level over and over and restarting with any even minor mistake. I was literally obsessed with this game though. I played it so much my friends would 3v1 me in multiplayer and still get rekt. This was top 3 hard levels though. Possibly Control was harder...maybe.
@@MrKevin486 yeah man control was a bastard on 00. Bunker 2 I found to be a wanker of a level as well. The only cheat I couldn't get was the "2 X RCP 90" one. To this day I still feel inadequate 😂
@@Yarp-xj3rd that's on the water Caverns right
@@gregbethscheider5912 yeah that's the one.
The Moonraker laser was always my favorite weapon in this game
But the one and only weapon was the classic Shotgun. This weapon in the hand of a very skilled player (like I was) was the ultimative weapon (Grenade Launcher excluded)!
@@andrejiljin8194 Really
@@kingthunderstar lets be honest, off course the laser is nice but its a no brainer, no reload, penetrates walls and so on...no challenge
@@andrejiljin8194 I'd still rather use the laser
Hey graslu, Your my best player of Goldeneye, Aztec, It's impossible and I am proud that I completed it , after 3 try.
I was like 5 or 6 when we got our 64 and I remember having to get my older brothers to beat most of the levels and honestly I'm still not sure I could beat half of these. Goldeneye and perfect Dark were tough.
This mission place was actually based on the space shuttle lunch area in moonraker
Damn, I wish I would have recorded some of my game-play before I sold my 64. Love this game.
You did this level the hard way, you're insane, you know that right.
I have yet to come across another first person shooter that gives me both sweaty palms & senses of pure survival as 00 agent Aztec and Cradle provide.
It use to take me days to kill jaws and you take him out in less than 10 seconds? Wtf!
Aim for his head
@@crazyforcoffee5950 yup
I love how this dude cheeses it when I actually got my N64 taken away because I threw a fit over this level!
This guy's good. See all those headshots?
Yeah he plays Goldeneye Source so hes a active goldeneye player
It's not played on a real N64 so it's probably a LOT easier.
4:11 was a pretty badass jump
5:06 *Henchman stands in front of glass* Henchman: He'll never see me here
Henchman: I heard there was free laser surgery around here today.
I always used to think those bright patches on the walls did something. Spent so many minutes trying to activate whatever it did.
i am going to combine the moon raker sound and the railgun sound, for a nice rich electro magnetic weapon sound.
Very impressive, taking that route to kill jaws is incredibly difficult!!
I always went through the glass door room rather than jumping down into the area with Jaws. It worked for you though.
To this day this game is still one of the most satisfying first person shooters to shoot an npc in.
One of the things I love the most about this game is its diversity of level design and assets, there are doors, floor and roof tiles, walls exclusive to every level, nowadays there are extensive libraries of assets and the devs just clutter the levels with everything they can.
I still remember to this day when I didn't beat this level 25 years ago. It really taught me that there were some things I couldn't be, like a secret agent, for example, and I should aim for attainable goals, such as being a telemarketer or retail worker (the two careers on my CV today). Fuck you, 007.
To be honest irl secret agents are spending much more time doing intel than having epic adventures like JB.
i love the sound effect of picking up a moonraker so much
I died going up the stairs right at the end !! Almost ready to pass and that blood tune comes on
( tan-tan-tadam-tan) 😂😂🤬🤬
DAMMIT LMFAO
Amazing, i've seen anyone approach the level this way. I'm going to have to try this route :)
nathan jones
Just remember to open the exhaust bay doors before you upload the launch protocol.
jaws gave me nightmares as a child
Aztec, the reason why I raged, I did the hard path and after 600 million tries, I finally passed it, the freaking laser guards don't stop coming.
+Pat_Orr_86 I figured that much out after I played through many times.
this comment was posted on my birthday :D
Epic Ambrose Hey! Well happy late birthday!
2:47 your heart skipped a beat that moment, huh :P
My uncle told me a story about this mission. Just remember I’ve never played this game, so if I say something that doesn’t make sense, just remember.
So he told me that when he was young he played this game, and of course got this secret level. So he spent so long on it, and one time he was at the end, and he bumped into something (I don’t know of the time ran out because he just bumped into it, or something) and he failed. So he got up and threw his controller as hard as he could at the ground, and it shattered everywhere.
Looking back at middle school in the late 90s....if it was known you had a Goldeneye cartridge with Egyptian unlocked, you had the respect of your peers.
currently playing through this game on n64 but when I was kid I used so many cheats I never knew how to play this game correctly. it's actually pretty damn hard on just secret agent. the few 00 agent missions I did killed me lol.
+Josh I think everyone did that as a kid, lol. Some of the missions are really hard, indeed, but once you know where they are and how to keep them from coming on levels like Bunker or Archives, it gets easier.
+Graslu00 so it is true some levels they just come keep coming and don't stop? lol because man there's times where I kept killing and I'm like really bruhhhhh now how in the helllllllll did you have this many guys?
Yes that's true, levels like Bunker II or Archives have unlimited guards. You can use silenced weapons in Bunker II to stop them or slappers only in Archives.
+Graslu00 that sucks man haha I'm currently doing archives and I'm running like hell away from them. like nope ain't got time for you
Try to do it using slappers only, it really works and you can end it pretty fast and easily.
This mission was such a pain in the ass when I was a little kid
Ugh. Memories of playing this so many times trying to get it right. Actually recorded when I finally did on a video cassette. What a b-word doing it on the highest difficultly level on the N64. One wrong move and you're gone. One wrong shooting animation of a bad guy and you're screwed.
I did this mission back around 1998 with max difficulty settings for the all bonds. After two days straight I finished the challenge only to find out it was an April fools prank.....sigh
You are one lucky Bond player. Nice work, especially the part where you almost died.
This level is so dope. My favorite one in the game.
Fun Fact about this stage: At some point, this mission originally intended to have female guards as opposed to male guards like in the final game.
That is true. Wish they kept it, but I think that would ruin Bond's image.
hey! I just saw one of your videos was used in a big time channel today haha I was like hey I've seen that game play before!
Can I have a link or name of said video?
+Josh Thanks! Link got blocked by TH-cam so I just saw it.
I usually took the mission the other way around and dont drop down.
1:12 those reflexes tho, that dude dodged a bullet
this game used to have the fucking scariest guns to use against people in multiplayer
I played this level, years before watching moonraker. Gosh it seems so cool now after watching moonraker
Wow I've been playing this level backwards apparently
Nah I do it backwards here lol, it's harder.
The man has played this level a few hundred times.
24 years... 24 years and I have not passed 00 Aztec.... I always get shot on that f*cking ladder, or on the f*cking platform. Today I decided I could not pass this stage alone, I need help, and that's why I'm here folks. My name is Janis and I'm a Goldeneye-holic. Thanks for sharing this, I haven't had much luck doing the level backwards so to speak, but I'm going to give it another go! Right... Hope you've got a vid on 00 Agent Control room, haven't passed that either - That stupid b*tch Natalya always ruins everything
Haha you can do it! I beat all of them for the first time recently
@@willhopson1277 Amazing! Congrats!! Good to know it's possible
this video was awesome I remember passing this mission when I got it in Secret Agent I passed it all excited knowing I had to pass everything in 00 Agent to get Egyptian lol this was the most impossible one
How was I unaware that you could jump down near the beginning of the level to a lower place and do the entire map in essentially reverse. I've never seen and I was the kid in the neighbourhood everyone gave their Goldeneye cartridge to to get all the cheats unlocked.
