I could NEVER understand why I kept failing the mission at he end she would always her killed !!!! You have to approach unarmed or the guards kill her !
@@Agent1W Yeah, but as a representation of Lenin the statue still looks basically nothing like him. I can't really blame the developers since they had more important things to focus on with a limited graphics engine, but still.
@@IsmailofeRegime Yeah, I thought the same exact thing as a kid. It didn't take me very long to learn who he was. But, that statue does not look like him. I don't ever remember seeing a picture of Lenin being that overweight. I mean, they lived in a Communist State, so people weren't exactly overindulging. The only one who was a little porky was Stalin.
Idk why but out of all the military uniforms, the non-nazi German & Nazis had very appealing gear. I do not condone their ideology or what the Nazis did,but their regalia has such superior stature. The Soviets have a bland appearance imo and look similar to other countries, except maybe part of their navy.
Right here....my nightmare...St. Petersburg's Statue Park....I'm almost 33 and still get chills from this pain in the ass of a level...used to love this game so much...cool to see how it aged well..
When I was younger Archives was my fear. I swear the doors would open on their own even after I killed all the guards. My uncle and stepdad never believed me. (This is pretty much all I'd do as a kid lol. I'd just play a level and camp)
Just wanted to stop by and say I’m playing this for the first time(maybe one of the most fun shooters ever) and I came here because this level is making me want to jump off a bridge 😂 every time I go to the end of the park all the black ops appear and shoot me
"Back from the dead. No longer just an anonymous star on the memorial wall at MI6." - Janus "How did the MI6 screening miss that your parents were Lienz Cossacks?" - Bond "Once again, your faith is misplaced. They knew. We're both orphans, James. But where your parents had the luxury of dying in a climbing accident, mine survived the British betrayal and Stalin's execution squads. My father couldn't let himself or my mother live with the shame of it. MI6 figured I was too young to remember, and in one of life's little ironies, the son went to work for the government whose betrayal caused the father to kill himself and his wife." - Janus "Hence, Janus. The two-faced Roman god come to life." - Bond
Am I supposed to feel sorry for you? No, you're supposed to die for me. By the way, I did think of asking you to join my little scheme, but somehow I knew that 007's loyalty is always to the mission - never to his friend. Closing time, James. Last call.
This level was so cool as a kid to me. I watched my step dad try and figure out how to do everything in the level and he kept getting the girl shot at the end. Finally I suggested he put his gun away and when it worked we both lost it and high fived a lot. It's poorly designed by today's standards but the memory was worth it.
@@tyreepowell8367 I remember watching my older brother play through story mode, and on this particular mission, it took so long to find the Flight Records. I think eventually one of my other brothers suggested going back into the level
I remember for the longest time I couldn't beat this mission as a kid cause I would start shooting at the enemies at the end and fail XD my whole family was trying to figure this out until one day I just decided to walk up to them without shooting and see what happens. I was so proud of myself lol.
Anyone else refer to the AK in golden eye as the "battery gun?" (looks like a duracell battery so thats what me and all of my friends, at the age of 8, would call it.)
This and Surface 2 were the most eerie and creepy missions, the music sums it up along with the enemies coming right after you in the dark and Surface 2 had the Arctic snowsuit guys chasing you in the red fog that look like Sasquatches lol
This was a nightmare for me for a good hour before I beat it. The worst part was reaching the Statue unharmed and then having to deal with more of those regular guards appearing randomly for like another 2-5 minutes while waiting for Janus and his guards.
This mission is balls honestly. Your natural instinct when you see guys with guns walking up to you is to shoot so that's a fail. Then when you need to get the flight recorder your instincts say it should be somewhere near the helicopter but then you need to backtrack. Then at the end once again you will probably try to shoot the guards and it won't be obvious to hold your fire and let them talk.
This and Surface 2 were the eeriest missions due to the theme and the mission taking at night. I get so freaked out as a kid especially when the soldiers ran fast towards you in the dark and I would pull my gun out instantly. Memories.
This is the level with the most objectives on Agent difficulty. Only by completing an objective can you trigger the next one (Janus won't meet you by Lenin's Statue unless you first talk to Valentin, for example).
So, growing up, my brothers and I would play through this level, but, we always just looked up at the statue when Janus arrived. We all saw the movie too. It wasn't until watching this playthrough that I saw Trevelyan and his crew appear from the shadows
The worst part of unlocking the Cheat for this Level is when you're trying to make Valentin walk a little forward pushing C. Left and C. Right and then you Z-Press and Chop him.
That was no doubt intentional. It's a "graveyard" for Soviet-era statues and monuments. The movie starts in 1986, with James and Alec teaming up to destroy a Soviet chemical weapons facility, hence why Alec shows up nearly a decade later as Janus in a spot reminiscent of the Cold War.
Oh thank God this was up I just started playing the game this weekend again for who the hell knows how long and I’ve always hated this map I would not have passed this without your video thank you
I remember that time when you first played this level and don't know about it *Killing Janus. *Going circles because you don't know where the helicopter is. *Killing mishkin. Strange times And scared of this level.
An all time classic of a video game never to be forgotten and with the way you play (especially this level) is a Privilege watching .... Cos I HATED THIS STAGE!!. Lol. Nice work
Did you know that as a cheat in Perfect Dark you can actually get the PP7 only in perfect Dark it's called the pp9i. You can actually unlock all the classic guns from this game only none of them keep the same names. Like the KF7 Soviet is called the KF7 special and many more. All the classic guns don't have reload animations though unless you download a special rom.
As a kid my ghetto ass tv was so dark you could hardly see ten feet in front of you. This level, Surface 2, Caverns, and the Cave MP map where damn near unplayable
Ugh, the cave map in multiplayer. It was my self proclaimed favourite level but only because my older brothers and sisters would never allow it to be picked. In hindsight I fully understand why.
Graslu00, I recently watched your video of the full gameplay of the XBLA remake of GoldenEye 007, and I have to say, Statue looks even more frightening there than in the N64 original.
When I was a kid playing this game we had a super shitty tv that was too dark. We had to crank up all the settings just to be able to see in this level and it was so hard to beat. Seeing years later with correct colours and brightness really shows how a bad tv made this and other games needlessly hard!
Had to get used to stuff like the lighting in this level. I have a dark tv and the route including the flight recorder needed practice too but got under 3:15 all difficulties for all four save files. Archives next.
The funny thing is what really stood out to me as a kid was the Soviet iron and sickle. Lmfao didn’t know what it was till now that I’m older. Rip Soviet Union 🫡

I got so lost in this level as a kid..looking at it now it's just a straight line hahaha.
because it's much more dark and blurry on a crt tv
I fucking HATED this mission 😂 spent literally hours trying to navigate it.
I got lost all but my last time playing and I set 10 minutes time for first 4 stages easy mode like it was nothing even tho I didn't play for 10 years
thought i was the only kiddo
We were searching for dear treasures lol
this level used to give me the creeps, like near the end when all the men in black come out of the shadows
I hated this level when I was a kid.
same I was so fucking scared the music creeped me out and it was all dark with the silhouette of the statues
+Robert Merrill The level is just infuriating.
When I was a kid I hate this level too but I tried a lot of time but I never did :
I always had trouble finding the black box
Lol same
I'm was scared of this level when I first played it
Me too when i was young. I hated it
Me too. I don’t know why.
Same least favorite level
X5
Surface 2 was the worst to me

This and the BattleTanks game were among my favorites for N64
Exactly looking back we used those ram's horn controllers with ease, now they're confusing lol.
Most of today's games are all the same, and you have to buy them a piece at a time.
This music, and the dark eerieness of the map gives me goosebumps!!!!!!!!!!!!

So in love with this soundtrack
The multiplayer at this level would have been great
It was planned to be a multiplayer level but it got scrapped due to frame rate issues.

+420Kyle1620 It looks like a colored pencil
I always saw a duracell battery too. lol
+Graslu00 i always thought of it as an arm because the first person model and the model they hold look nothing alike lol
+420Kyle1620 looked like a pencil to me
When i was a kid I called it the pencil gun.
thank you. i was stuck on this stupid level forever. i can finally move on!
I never use a gun in this level anymore other than to kill Valentin after he keeps my ass in the shed so long lol
Ha! Love how you run past the guy pointless rolling at 2:11.
This game has historic value! An amazing game in its day by a mile!!!

I remember playing this with my brother at like age 3-4, I could never pronounce “Automatic” So I called it the Atomic Shotgun.
Memories lmao.
I am still amazed to this day, that no one has passed a comment on how good the shotgun sounded in this game?!
"Why yes, 006, I'll join you."
"I knew you wouldn't-wait what?"

I kept trying to shoot the enemies right around her. Kept failing . Thanks for this
Comes back to watch this, and then i realize how much this map scared me when i was a kid, kind of like the bottom of the well in zelda oot..
I remember killing Valentine on this map lmao
And Alec before he ran away
Scariest level in a non horror Videogame
Just bought it for my n64. A reconditioned one. Graphics here look better than mine haha
The reason the graphics look better here is he's playing on PC on an emulator
This level look like a cemetery because some the items look like tombstones
That was no doubt intentional. It's a "graveyard" for Soviet-era statues and monuments. The movie starts in 1986, with James and Alec teaming up to destroy a Soviet chemical weapons facility, hence why Alec shows up nearly a decade later as Janus in a spot reminiscent of the Cold War.
You spin me right round baby right round -lol thats crazy spins you made him.hahaha
The singer is a "woman" now.
Place proximity or timed mines outside of the gates before you leave at the end of the mission. The mines blow up, hilarity ensues.
This music alone floods me with memories. I loved this mission. The plot twist had me like WHAT??
Oh thank God this was up I just started playing the game this weekend again for who the hell knows how long and I’ve always hated this map I would not have passed this without your video thank you
Glad I could help!
I remember that time when you first played this level and don't know about it
*Killing Janus.
*Going circles because you don't know where the helicopter is.
*Killing mishkin.
Strange times
And scared of this level.
Lolol look at Mishkin having to re-adjust his gun point at you. 😂
The fact this level manages to be creepier than any horror game of recent memory and it's not even meant to be a scary game lol
Watching this made me want to watch the movie. Prime Video mode On
Janus will meet you by the John Lennon statue
Unexpected twisted there wasn’t no truck waiting outside 💀💀😂
Best soundtrack of the entire game!!
Surface man myself!
Awesome!!! Got me through the level.
An all time classic of a video game never to be forgotten and with the way you play (especially this level) is a Privilege watching .... Cos I HATED THIS STAGE!!. Lol. Nice work
i remember trying to do this level fast to get the cheat code and just hoping the box landed close
i was really creeped out by this level… its just so mysterious and dark
oyea and stay away from the statue to the north east
Thanks. I've always hated this mission because I could never figure out where to go.
I’m 33 now , I still remember this instrumental , I listen to this on my AirPods while working instead of music 😂
you're a wizard, James!
1:09 - just Graslu sniping with the PP7, nothing to see here. Man, your pistol accuracy in all your videos is otherworldly.
4:04 That looks like an engraving of Roger Moore
Yeah, it does a bit!
This mission scared the shit outta me when I was a kid
Much Appreciated, this will speed up my learning curve.

Always stuck with me, that.
Even the music is GREAT!!!
Those damn guards at the end threatening to kill Natalya.....
This mission use to give me the creeps as a kid. The music, mostly, made it twice as creepy. 😖
yeah same here
Thanks
My friends of the past, if you have Xbox game pass, you can actually re-download this game
I love how it sounds like a shotgun reloading when you clearly have a pistol haha but good times good times😎
FINALLY I UNDERSTAND HOW TO UNMASK JANUS AND SAVE NATALYA

Used to get so fucking lost on this level.
I always got to the end and failed cause I shot all the guards at the end! Didn't know what I was doing wrong lmao
Based on the comments I might be one of the few who actually liked this level.
I love this level. It's eerie and exhilarating, with one of my favorite songs in the game
This level scared me shitless as a child.
Mishkin got some moves😆😆
Wow, it's amazing how easy this mission is if you know to unarm yourself 😂
loved the ending!!!
The shotgun... Too op.
The funny thing is what really stood out to me as a kid was the Soviet iron and sickle. Lmfao didn’t know what it was till now that I’m older. Rip Soviet Union 🫡
this level and scene in the game and movie scared the sh*t outta me
The auto shotties were the coolest thing to me back then
I've always hated this level.
Me too fuck it
jungle sucks!
Control was worse
I keep getting turned around and killed in this level. Doesn’t help that im playing on the N64 so everything is super dark.
This music could perfectly fit in Ironforge
