A GoldenEye 007 remaster was in development for the Xbox 360, but never saw the light of day.

Now, a two-hour replay by the remaster has revealed key game details that never existed.

YouTuber Graslu00 uploaded a video with a full view of the entire campaign for the game and even some multiplayer footage. Graslu00 managed to play through Xenia, an emulator that can run Xbox 360 games on the PC.

The original GoldenEye 007 for Nintendo 64 was a revolutionary milestone in video games. Before GoldenEye, the FPS genre was seen as something exclusive to the PC.

GoldenEye was part of the forefront of console FPS games that proved that the genre could work with joypads. In fact, many players cite GoldenEye for N64 as the title that introduced them to first-person shooter games.

In 2008, Microsoft announced that a GoldenEye 007 remaster would be coming to Xbox 360 (thanks, VGC). But due to a complicated dispute involving several companies, the project never made it to Xbox Live Arcade as planned. This was despite the fact that production of the game was almost complete.

“The main reason this didn’t happen was because there were a lot of stakeholders,” Grant Kirkhope, a GoldenEye songwriter, told VGC. “Microsoft, Nintendo and EON never agreed on the terms, and that was before you even started to consider getting all the actors in the original film to agree to have their images used again.

Unfortunately, this almost guarantees that an official GoldenEye 007 remastering will never happen. But thanks to the Graslu00 video, fans at least got a glimpse of what it could have been.
