"Superannuation were at it again as they spotted that Activision had snapped up the domain for goldeneyegame.com.

Chances are that it's a remake of the classic Goldeneye title are slim, you know, with all the licensing issues, but if reports from last year are anything to go by, it could be an all new Goldeneye title.

Although those reports only mentioned a Wii version of the title, Activision aren't one for creating Wii exclusive titles... you know, because of much higher attach rates on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. That and Eurocom did work on the port for Treyarch's last Bond title, The Quantum of Solace.

In other Bond news, Activision also snapped up the domain, bloodstonegame.com, perhaps paying more credence to the HMV slip from earlier this week regarding James Bond: Bloodstone.

Activision have already promised more Bond for this year, so time will tell if these pan out to be genuine titles, rather than just conjecture"

Activision registers new domain for GoldenEye game.

by Richard Mitchell (Apr 23rd 2010 at 6:12PM)

The saga of a new GoldenEye game -- or the possible re-release of the original -- has acquired yet another new wrinkle. Said wrinkle comes in the form of a new internet domain registered by Activision. The domain in question, uncovered by superannuation, is goldeneyegame.com, which certainly points to some sort of revival for the storied title. While the prospects of an actual re-release of Rare's N64 classic have been all but crushed, an artist's resume discovered in October 2009 did mention work on a GoldenEye 2010 for Activision.

Assuming the resume was accurate, Activision could be securing the domain in advance of an announcement. It's also unclear if any of this ties into James Bond: Bloodstone, the alleged title of the Bond game in development at Bizarre. We know Activision has Bond plans for 2010, but could the company be preparing us for a double-0 dose of espionage, perhaps rolling out a new version of GoldenEye to drum up interest for Bloodstone? Or maybe the company is simply getting its ducks in a row in case it does decide to revive GoldenEye.

Whatever it is, something is definitely stirring shaking at Activision.



I just hope, that if they do make a remake - they stay to the same formula.
However what about Rare?
