The helicopter in the movie is a preproduction Eurocopter Tiger, as used by the Australian Army’s 1st Aviation Regiment. It isn’t in the game because for some reason it wasn’t licensed?
Magsec5 that’s right. The Tiger is Airbus’ intellectual property and the developers would have had to get their permission to use it in game, which usually involves a licensing fee if you intend to profit from it.
If you read the pre-mission text, it explains that certain missions (like Bunker 1 and Silo) take place *before* the movie's plot. In Silo, you're actually photographing the GoldenEye satellite *before* it is launched into orbit.
and it is also mentioned in the movie, when Bond talks with M while watching the facility being exploded by the Goldeneye EMP burst, Bond arelady previously had known about the Goldeneye satellite and had already briefed M about it. Nice touch for game developers create two stages about that line of dialogue .
As someone who has seen all 24 bond films, Aztec Complex is a sequel to the events in Moonraker and Egyptian Temple combines various elements: Baron Samedi from Live And Let Die, the golden gun from Man With The Golden Gun, and the egyptian temple setting from The Spy Who Loved Me.
I did read years ago Rare were given the blueprints to the sets for the game, which is why they're pretty accurate. and the remote mines are actually the base to a joystick sprayed grey!
Same here! GoldenEye N64 was my first introduction to Bond at about 11 or 12 and then I finally watched all the movies at 22 in preparation for No Time to Die and then I watched that as well. I know it wasn't even announced at the time of this comment and video but still.
Yeah I think it was an intentional "haha jokes on you" by the developers. It doesn't even say "mission failed," you go back to Natalya and she's like "shooting Boris is bad" and the mission just... doesn't progress.
IIRC, it is possible to knock Trevelyan off the platform, which triggers an additional cutscene of him falling to his death. It's just a single-angle shot of him falling into the game fog, never to be seen again, though.
That is correct, I have had that happen quite a few times. It's especially likely to happen if you go hand to hand there to make it more like the movie, while alternatively, you can fall off/be shot off the edge for a similar cutscene.
Always having the actual hardware and game is just a priceless feeling though. Goldeneye on anything else is fuckin blasphemy. Mouse and keyboard is just sickening lol.
If you ever check out Goldeneye's deleted scenes (film) you do see Bond before jumping the damn, entering a guard house which resembles one of the guard houses in the game, he makes his way through two guards to press the button that opens the gate. The makers remove this scene feeling that the scene where hes running while the gate opens looked and felt better for its pace.
Fun fact - The laser cutting of the damn screws up, you can see the light go off the lasers track for a second 🤣🤣🤣 They didn't cut it for some reason...
That's also really, really obviously a stunt double doing the rappelling from the helicopter in the jungle, not Famke Janssen. That was obvious even on the old VHS or SDTV versions, it's not one of those things that's only obvious in a modern blu-ray.
A video on the remake could be interesting, just because it's such a weird amalgamation of everything. There are bits from the movie that weren't really in the N64 game (the helicopter ejection comes to mind), bits that were famous in the game but not really in the movie (like the whole dam level), and things that were different from both because they were updated to be more in line with 2010s Daniel Craig era Bond.
Fun fact: The Eurocopter was gifted to the film production and years later, when Warner Bros bought Leavesden Studios and started renovating it was discovered at the bottom of a pond (that has formed because they left the scale model of the satellite dish outside for almost two decades)
"By the way, I did think of asking you to join my little scheme, but somehow I knew, 007's loyalty was always to the mission - never to his friend." 006 was probably the most relatable of all the bad guys in the Bond films. His flaws made him more human.
My favorite part of the Goldeneye movie is in the facility where Bond is reloading his gun while being shot at and he slightly moves his head and dodges 3 bullets. He does it like it’s effortless. I always thought that was the most badass thing ever
I have always wondered what the environments in the movie looked like on the actual movie set. I realise of course that they were probably just recorded in a studio, but there must have been SOMETHING that we never see in the movie that actually existed there, and that was originally intended to appear in the movie. Also, some places might have even been actual disused factories or something, since the production team DID obviously get permission to record a bunch of takes on the actual Contra Dam and Arecibo Observatory, and those places weren't even disused during those recordings.
The KF7 Soviet is based on the Norinco 56-1 (which is based on the AKS-47) seen in the facility and runway (and cradle) scenes in the movie. The weapon used on the train that you describe as the KF7 Soviet is an AKS-74u, also used extensively in the movie, but a different weapon than the AKS-47. It was a compact version of the AK-74 and AKS-74 which were chambered in 5.45mm x 39 instead of 7.62mm x 39 as in the AK-47. Just a sidenote.
I can't believe you called the Ak47 the "Pencil Gun" too. You actually have no idea how big my smile and surprise was like what a damn coincidence, me and my brother always called it that too.
I always loved how accurate the game was to the movie. It really felt like I was playing through the movie, at least in my head. One of the best movies of all time and one of the best games of all time.
Dr. Doak in the game was actually based on David Doak, one of the game's developers. His face was used specifically on Dr. Doak as well as random NPCs.
This is a great concept for a video. You should do more. I was impressed at the tiny details that the game and the movie shared. I knew the overall scenes and atmosphere were carried over well. Keep up the good work man.
Nice video! Interesting facts about the visuals and designs from both the game and the movie, and quite humorous as well. Kudos (: Edit: The dev team had to change the name of the helicopter for copyright or trademark reasons, or something like that.
It’s amazing how well goldeneye 64 holds up today as well as to the movie. I played the game before watching the movie but I was super impressed at how much they got everything right, for a video game.
The Surface, Bunker and Silo missions are prequels. In the movie it cuts to nine years later but in the game and even in your video it says "four years ago." So the missions take place during that nine year period.
It should be worth noting. That while Goldeneye the Game added in missions as a reason to explore setpieces, since the Player is always playing as Bond, the Movie has the bonus of being able to give the focus to Xenia, Ourumov, Boris, Trevelyan and Natalya, allowing for various POVs to be used. Perhaps it would've been ambitious to have a few missions where you play as different characters, but I think the decision to stick with Bond the entire game, forced them to swap some things around to make it work.
Being able to play as different characters in GoldenEye N64 in their respective missions would've been cool tbh, and would have predated Call Of Duty when it comes to that.
I played this game for years as a kid, and didn't watch the movie until my late teens. It was amazing to see how accurate the two were comparatively. Rare did a wonderful job at adapting the movie. It upsets me that Bond is given Daniel Craig's likeness in the Xbox remake of the game, but it's understandable.
You missed out the tank on the runway 😋 Plus, in facility, if you go hide upstairs (above the exit door) you get the general counting down from 10 to 'execute' 006 after they storm the container room
Don't worry, I was poking fun at how common that sort of comment is made. Somebody else posted this exact sentence in the comments, and I thought I'd poke a little fun. Jesse caught it, at least!
This is such an awesome video. I remember first time I watched the movie, I looked for as many similarities to the game as possible. I was definitely let down that the Silo mission was never part of the movie
A very goofy change in Control is that you fail the mission if you shoot Boris because Natalya abandons you, even though he's responsible for the deaths of all her co-workers at the Goldeneye facility and has tried killing her multiple times in the film by now. Hell she tries killing him in the film at this point. Makes absolutely no sense in the game for her to be angered if you shoot him.
What's funny is that as a kid I felt sympathetic toward Boris, then when I re-watched the film years later I saw Boris as less "haha silly Russian hacker guy" and more "perverted egomaniac who betrays everyone." Although he *is* still amusing.
The mainframes that control the water pumps (so as to hide the antenna dish underwater) are stored in the underground caverns. The importance of Bond going there and destroying said mainframes is to prevent Janus from ever hiding the exposed antenna dish again (and to convince Jack Wade about the antenna's existence, as well as ask him for further backup). If you remember Wade saying that the antenna dish never existed, it makes sense in context.
3:31 FUN FACT about this part in the game, it is actually a commentary on the player's performance thorugh the level. Take a lot of hits and bond will say it was "quite difficult", get there with relativley minimal damage and bond will say "it was too easy alec" like he does in the movie. I know because facility is my favorite level both in multiplayer and singleplayer and i've played it hundreds of times on 00 agent difficulty.
This was an excellent comparison. I actually did the same thing as a kid, comparing the movie to the game. Goldeneye is hands down my favorite Brosnan movie, though man I was super disappointed that Bunker, Surface, and Silo never happened in the movie. Silo would have been an amazing movie scene.
I'll remake Level 2, Facility, in the GZDoom engine soon. Your notes of how itdiffers from the movie made me change some ideas of how to make it. Thank you, and nice vid.
Also, you should check out GoldenEye Rogue Agent on the DS, it's basically a full port of the console versions and is probably the best FPS game on the DS, you can even fight against bots.
someday I'll make that DS FPS game roundup vid! haha I haven't played the rogue agent port yet definitely keen to check it out, I'm a fan of the console game
I beg to differ. The Wiimake of Goldeneye. When there was the Goldeneye remake for Wii, there were a whole lot of people playing it. All the proof you need is on my TH-cam channel if you look among my playlists of Goldeneye Wii. There were lots of people playing the game online and I had a blast playing it.
Who else wanted/got a hi-tech watch as a kid because of Goldeneye? I had a cool one that had a backlighting button. Naturally, I ran around school pretending it was a laserwatch.

I always failed cradle because I always rushed to get to the helicopter-jump platform before travilian because that's how it hPpens in the movie. Sometimes I would wait until the last second so I go down the stairs right after him and the movie scene would make sence to my child brain
Good stuff dude, I would love to see a Peter Jackson's King Kong video like this actually. Regardless of what move/game adaptation you do though, this was a super cool concept!
somehow i never knew you could leave the facility through the conveyor, even 10 years on from when i first played goldeneye i'm still learning new stuff about it
I love the video, but you missed the Dam deleted scene, it's pretty much shows how he gets the gate open and there's guards in a little building with a satellite on top of it just like in the game, except they are watching television and Bond sneaks past them.
Which emulator did you use and where did you get the ROM (Nintendo got rid of emuparadise's stuff so I'm not sure what to use now). Thanks, and great video!!! I love this game.
10:05 back in 2001/02 I couldn’t afford a PS2 to play Grand Theft Auto 3, so I would load up the tank level from Goldeneye with invincibility, Max ammo, and all guns😆
Finally been playing this game for the past few days (just finished the Tanker hostage mission, and you do NOT wanna know how many tries it took for me to finally beat the Facility). After I’m done, I think I’ll definitely watch the movie.
A month or so ago I actually watched GoldenEye for the first time for a while. I popped a Pan & Scan VHS (Remember those?) in to me VCR and pressed the Play button to see a moving image on me CRT TV. Was cool experience.
This is such an entertaining video. I too love both the game and the movie, and can't get enough of either. The parts of the game that do try to copy the movie have always intrigued me, like a weird multi-media version of a demake. Although, whenever I watch the film I'm usually just picking out the parts that are in the game, so I have it a little backwards.
what a great video! I'm gonna subsc- OMG You have the exact same Ikea glass case. WITH A FAMICOM ON THE TOP SHELF IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT FACING THE SAME DIRECTION AS MY OWN Sorry, this might not mean much to you but I nearly choked on my lunch when I saw that just now. Your setup is very close to my own. Smart man you are ;) Oh yeah subbed. Great video :) Goldeneye is awesome!
When I first saw the movie, I'd played the game to death already so I marked out like crazy when Bond burst out the interrogation room, turned right, and went up the stairs. The route is ingrained in me from trying to unlock invisible mode. The devs watched the hell out of the film and it really shows.
Now Imagine a modern spin to this videogame. You prabobly would have played the scene from the casino roaming around photographing shit, or trying to find the rigth npc's to get your cut scenes from, or the car chase, etc. Boring ass missions witch would have added no fun to the game other then demonstrating how realistic and authentic developers could make the game according to the movie. Instead this brilliant team made nessassary and creative changes to the story mode to make it a fun game instead of a goldeneye vhs simulator. This is what modern games lack. Creative and good developers able to make games fun, and not just to look authentic, realistic and impressive visually.
5:45 The Eurocom Tiger is a real helicopter with a trademarked name, they changed it in the game for the same reason they changed the names of all the guns. They didn't have the rights to it.
I think the race against Xenia lends itself perfectly to a game level. As does the Yacht Manticore where Bond finds the body of the dead admiral after knocking out a sailor-like dude. You could have mentioned that one. There should have been a St. Petersburg level where Bond meets Jack Wade, does the set up at Kirov´s funeral parlour, meets Valentin and tries to catch up with Natalya in Our Lady Of Smolensk. I sneaky stealth approach for once. Also the fight with Xenia in the sauna could have been a level. Think about it - a level in which Bond has to escape his hotel alive and has him come through the sauna somewhere along the line. Obviously Xenia cannot die here, because she has to endure until the Jungle level but anyway.
The problem is that the N64 could only handle so much. They'd have to implement completely new mechanics to make the race level fun in any way (assuming they could even make a map big enough to race on.) The Yacht Manticore and St. Petersburg levels would likely just be seen by players as boring or annoying, since there isn't really any stealth mechanics in the game. A level where you fight Xenia in the sauna doesn't make sense if you use guns and would just be silly if you slapped each other.
@@IsmailofeRegime Depends entirely on how you set it up. Agree the race thing would be hard to make at the time. Yacht Manticore would be easy to do - also as a shooting level. The sauna thing would be easy if the entire hotel was the level and the sauna only was a part of the level near the very end. Better than Aztec and Egyptian
I really love the movie and the game as well, and rewatching the movie after many hours of playing the game a whole lot, I was pleasantly surprised to note that they were imitating the movie sets and locations at certain points. I actually really enjoy the way the game tells the story though. For the first level you just go to various action setpieces and do cool spy stuff; then in the facility things start out cool but become gradually more unsettling leading up to a scripted event where Alec dies, scripted both in the game sense and in the sense that Alec was secretly a traitor faking his death, which you discover much later; then comes the runway where stealth is nearly impossible, which is fitting since the mission is falling apart at this point. Then comes the first two Severnaya levels, which have a lonely and small feeling to them, as if Bond is lost somewhere; the next two levels aren't strictly connected but they both return to the "cool spy stuff" gameplay of the Dam, and they both have clear connections to the Goldeneye weapon and the Cossacks, giving a sense that Bond is wiser now and he's finding his groove again. Then comes the second two Severnaya levels, I don't quite get their significance but I find it interesting how similar they are to the first two, in a game that allows you to freely replay levels you've beaten; I also find the red sky a little strange. The next five missions return to the sickening feeling of the facility, but in reverse this time, where Alec comes "back from the dead" and reveals the truth to Bond before fleeing (under an oppressive cloudy sky, maybe this is kind of tinfoil-hat-like but I think it's supposed to remind us of the poison gas in the facility) while being secretly helped by Valentin (similar to Doak in the facility), and in the final four levels Bond finally lives up to his legendary reputation and saves the world (the caverns level even looks like a classic Bond villain lair).

Magsec5 that’s right. The Tiger is Airbus’ intellectual property and the developers would have had to get their permission to use it in game, which usually involves a licensing fee if you intend to profit from it.
It's not Oromov, it's some generic guard that comes in to say Oromov has given new orders to execute Bond. Oromov does not not appear in the Level.

In the game it says Eurocopter
If you read the pre-mission text, it explains that certain missions (like Bunker 1 and Silo) take place *before* the movie's plot. In Silo, you're actually photographing the GoldenEye satellite *before* it is launched into orbit.

I was definitely let down that the Silo mission was never part of the movie
A very goofy change in Control is that you fail the mission if you shoot Boris because Natalya abandons you, even though he's responsible for the deaths of all her co-workers at the Goldeneye facility and has tried killing her multiple times in the film by now. Hell she tries killing him in the film at this point. Makes absolutely no sense in the game for her to be angered if you shoot him.
What's funny is that as a kid I felt sympathetic toward Boris, then when I re-watched the film years later I saw Boris as less "haha silly Russian hacker guy" and more "perverted egomaniac who betrays everyone."
Although he *is* still amusing.
Nice timing. Just watched this movie earlier today
If you ever get the chance, you should totally do golden eye n64 vs wii
The pyramid level was definitely the most random.
I absolutely loved the Wii version, I spent countless hours on the multiplayer.
I was thinking about this the other week while playing the game. (:
While watching: *Lovely comparison*
thanks :)
and yeah I always sort of kept track of how they related to eachother

Minime, The savior of TH-cam. This video was great!!
darien the best commenter on youtube ;) thanks fam
The mainframes that control the water pumps (so as to hide the antenna dish underwater) are stored in the underground caverns. The importance of Bond going there and destroying said mainframes is to prevent Janus from ever hiding the exposed antenna dish again (and to convince Jack Wade about the antenna's existence, as well as ask him for further backup). If you remember Wade saying that the antenna dish never existed, it makes sense in context.
Will you do this to other movie based games?
If so I can't wait for more!
I'm considering it yeah! Have a few in mind
@@minimme Why not compare another N64 Bond FPS, The World is Not Enough?
@@olzhas1one755 But then he'd have to play it, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone!
If you made a comparison with the Wii game, I would watch it because I never played it.
To be fair you played on regular mode. On 00 agent trev is actually in that lab room that you passed by. Game is even closer when you play on 00 agent
Bruh me and all my siblings called that the pencil gun growing up on the n64
3:31 FUN FACT about this part in the game, it is actually a commentary on the player's performance thorugh the level. Take a lot of hits and bond will say it was "quite difficult", get there with relativley minimal damage and bond will say "it was too easy alec" like he does in the movie. I know because facility is my favorite level both in multiplayer and singleplayer and i've played it hundreds of times on 00 agent difficulty.
This was an excellent comparison. I actually did the same thing as a kid, comparing the movie to the game. Goldeneye is hands down my favorite Brosnan movie, though man I was super disappointed that Bunker, Surface, and Silo never happened in the movie. Silo would have been an amazing movie scene.
I'll remake Level 2, Facility, in the GZDoom engine soon. Your notes of how itdiffers from the movie made me change some ideas of how to make it. Thank you, and nice vid.
The name's Me.
Mini Me.
I was actually waiting for someone to make a comparison vid of the GoldenEye film and game. This was pretty cool. 👌
Also, you should check out GoldenEye Rogue Agent on the DS, it's basically a full port of the console versions and is probably the best FPS game on the DS, you can even fight against bots.
someday I'll make that DS FPS game roundup vid! haha
I haven't played the rogue agent port yet definitely keen to check it out, I'm a fan of the console game
Rogue Agent was one of the worst DS games. I only bought it because in the first year of the DS there were almost no games, lol
Andy Faulk I’ll have to disagree with that statement.
@@andyfaulk3962 the Call of Duty games were miles better than that horrid game
I beg to differ. The Wiimake of Goldeneye. When there was the Goldeneye remake for Wii, there were a whole lot of people playing it. All the proof you need is on my TH-cam channel if you look among my playlists of Goldeneye Wii. There were lots of people playing the game online and I had a blast playing it.
Who else wanted/got a hi-tech watch as a kid because of Goldeneye? I had a cool one that had a backlighting button. Naturally, I ran around school pretending it was a laserwatch.
I always failed cradle because I always rushed to get to the helicopter-jump platform before travilian because that's how it hPpens in the movie.
Sometimes I would wait until the last second so I go down the stairs right after him and the movie scene would make sence to my child brain
Good stuff dude, I would love to see a Peter Jackson's King Kong video like this actually. Regardless of what move/game adaptation you do though, this was a super cool concept!
Thanks for the awesome video friend! There are few comparisons between the game and the movie on TH-cam.
Thanks for confirming that I am not alone in calling it "The Pencil Gun".
somehow i never knew you could leave the facility through the conveyor, even 10 years on from when i first played goldeneye i'm still learning new stuff about it
Interesting fact: the length of this video is 19:11, which is also the name of a gun which James Bond does not use.
Interesting video. It would be cool to see a comparison of the remake game and the movie.
I love the video, but you missed the Dam deleted scene, it's pretty much shows how he gets the gate open and there's guards in a little building with a satellite on top of it just like in the game, except they are watching television and Bond sneaks past them.
Which emulator did you use and where did you get the ROM (Nintendo got rid of emuparadise's stuff so I'm not sure what to use now). Thanks, and great video!!! I love this game.
The DD4 was always my go-to weapon. I love that pistol. Great sound.
10:05 back in 2001/02 I couldn’t afford a PS2 to play Grand Theft Auto 3, so I would load up the tank level from Goldeneye with invincibility, Max ammo, and all guns😆
Finally been playing this game for the past few days (just finished the Tanker hostage mission, and you do
NOT wanna know how many tries it took for me to finally beat the Facility). After I’m done, I think I’ll definitely watch the movie.
A month or so ago I actually watched GoldenEye for the first time for a while. I popped a Pan & Scan VHS (Remember those?) in to me VCR and pressed the Play button to see a moving image on me CRT TV. Was cool experience.
This is such an entertaining video. I too love both the game and the movie, and can't get enough of either. The parts of the game that do try to copy the movie have always intrigued me, like a weird multi-media version of a demake. Although, whenever I watch the film I'm usually just picking out the parts that are in the game, so I have it a little backwards.
what a great video! I'm gonna subsc-
OMG
You have the exact same Ikea glass case. WITH A FAMICOM ON THE TOP SHELF IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT FACING THE SAME DIRECTION AS MY OWN
Sorry, this might not mean much to you but I nearly choked on my lunch when I saw that just now. Your setup is very close to my own. Smart man you are ;)
Oh yeah subbed. Great video :) Goldeneye is awesome!
I'd like to see a comparison with the Wii Goldeneye, too. It's a reasonably fun game
Thank you for making this video. I have wondered how this game matched up with the movie
When I first saw the movie, I'd played the game to death already so I marked out like crazy when Bond burst out the interrogation room, turned right, and went up the stairs. The route is ingrained in me from trying to unlock invisible mode. The devs watched the hell out of the film and it really shows.
Im pretty sure Bond could run faster if he just ran diagonally.
Actually that fact goes for everyone.
You forgot that Sean bean will fall off of the cradle if you kill him with an explosive in a small cut scene before bond jumps onto the helicopter
Oh man! That jungle level was so hard! I remember getting shot without even being able to see the enemies.
Now Imagine a modern spin to this videogame. You prabobly would have played the scene from the casino roaming around photographing shit, or trying to find the rigth npc's to get your cut scenes from, or the car chase, etc. Boring ass missions witch would have added no fun to the game other then demonstrating how realistic and authentic developers could make the game according to the movie. Instead this brilliant team made nessassary and creative changes to the story mode to make it a fun game instead of a goldeneye vhs simulator. This is what modern games lack. Creative and good developers able to make games fun, and not just to look authentic, realistic and impressive visually.
11:37 I thought I was the only one who called it "the Pencil Gun" lol
Objective: Minimize Doak causalities.
5:45 The Eurocom Tiger is a real helicopter with a trademarked name, they changed it in the game for the same reason they changed the names of all the guns. They didn't have the rights to it.
Absolutely loved this video! More of these would be great! Kind regards from Holland :)
I think the race against Xenia lends itself perfectly to a game level. As does the Yacht Manticore where Bond finds the body of the dead admiral after knocking out a sailor-like dude. You could have mentioned that one.
There should have been a St. Petersburg level where Bond meets Jack Wade, does the set up at Kirov´s funeral parlour, meets Valentin and tries to catch up with Natalya in Our Lady Of Smolensk. I sneaky stealth approach for once.
Also the fight with Xenia in the sauna could have been a level. Think about it - a level in which Bond has to escape his hotel alive and has him come through the sauna somewhere along the line. Obviously Xenia cannot die here, because she has to endure until the Jungle level but anyway.
The problem is that the N64 could only handle so much. They'd have to implement completely new mechanics to make the race level fun in any way (assuming they could even make a map big enough to race on.) The Yacht Manticore and St. Petersburg levels would likely just be seen by players as boring or annoying, since there isn't really any stealth mechanics in the game. A level where you fight Xenia in the sauna doesn't make sense if you use guns and would just be silly if you slapped each other.
@@IsmailofeRegime Depends entirely on how you set it up.
Agree the race thing would be hard to make at the time.
Yacht Manticore would be easy to do - also as a shooting level.
The sauna thing would be easy if the entire hotel was the level and the sauna only was a part of the level near the very end. Better than Aztec and Egyptian
You should also compare Goldeneye Source to the movie sets.
I actually haven't played this yet, definitely will check it out
I was obsessed with the movie and then game when I was like 10. This video was a good brush up.
I really love the movie and the game as well, and rewatching the movie after many hours of playing the game a whole lot, I was pleasantly surprised to note that they were imitating the movie sets and locations at certain points. I actually really enjoy the way the game tells the story though. For the first level you just go to various action setpieces and do cool spy stuff; then in the facility things start out cool but become gradually more unsettling leading up to a scripted event where Alec dies, scripted both in the game sense and in the sense that Alec was secretly a traitor faking his death, which you discover much later; then comes the runway where stealth is nearly impossible, which is fitting since the mission is falling apart at this point. Then comes the first two Severnaya levels, which have a lonely and small feeling to them, as if Bond is lost somewhere; the next two levels aren't strictly connected but they both return to the "cool spy stuff" gameplay of the Dam, and they both have clear connections to the Goldeneye weapon and the Cossacks, giving a sense that Bond is wiser now and he's finding his groove again. Then comes the second two Severnaya levels, I don't quite get their significance but I find it interesting how similar they are to the first two, in a game that allows you to freely replay levels you've beaten; I also find the red sky a little strange. The next five missions return to the sickening feeling of the facility, but in reverse this time, where Alec comes "back from the dead" and reveals the truth to Bond before fleeing (under an oppressive cloudy sky, maybe this is kind of tinfoil-hat-like but I think it's supposed to remind us of the poison gas in the facility) while being secretly helped by Valentin (similar to Doak in the facility), and in the final four levels Bond finally lives up to his legendary reputation and saves the world (the caverns level even looks like a classic Bond villain lair).
You did not just diss my boy Caverns like that.
