I didn’t know anything about, well, anything. It just looked so real in my young, inexperienced eyes.īut that’s the thing - I was 4 years old. The N64 might as well have been a Playstation 5, and GoldenEye might as well have been Ghost of Tsushima.
And most of it was that insane Lion King game that I’m 70 percent sure no one in the world has ever beaten. I mean, to that point, all I’d ever seen was the Super Nintendo. Related Daniel Craig on his ‘complicated’ James Bond and the character’s finale in ‘No Time to Die’ I’m not sure.Īll I know is that, at the time, that was the most incredible game I’d seen in my life. Reminiscing, it feels like one of those situations where, as the baby in the family, someone just hands you a controller and acts like you’re playing the game with them but you’re probably not.
I don’t even know if I was actually playing the game myself - I was just 4 years old in 1997 when the game first came out. So I wanted to start this story off by taking you to the exact moment in time when I first played James Bond’s GoldenEye 007 on the Nintendo 64.īut the truth is I don’t know when it happened for the first time.
It’s Bond, James Bond Week here at For The Win, where we’ve shaken (not stirred) five days’ worth of content to celebrate the premiere of the iconic franchise’s 25th movie, No Time to Die.
