Alright, I know this is a bit late, but GoldenEye: Source Beta 3 was released Sunday, February 8th. I've been playing it all week long and I have to say the game is a lot of fun.
Back story for those of you who live under a rock or are too young to remember. GoldenEye 007 was a fantastic shooter released for the Nintendo 64 in 1997. It was one of the first FPS games on a console to be a huge success, and it was followed by Perfect Dark by the same development team (RARE).
Some very, very intelligent person decided to port this amazing game to the Source Engine. The last update before this new release was Beta 1.1h way back in 2007. Beta 1.1h was an okay game, although it definitely lacked in many areas. Since then they ported the game to the Orange Box engine and made it an amazingly fun mod.
So let's get this mod popular and play the shit out of it before someone decides to bring copyright infringement lawsuits on the dev team! There aren't a lot of servers but there are quite a few players that you'll get to know quickly. I usually play on the Tastes Like Pants License To Kill server, so if you want to frag it up in an old-school and kickass game with updated graphics, then download the client (http://www.goldeneyesource.net/)and join!
