Well, see, it was due to Goldeneye being more stealth oriented than anything else. The "spiritual sequel" Perfect Dark, however, had some real "shoot anything that moves" action oriented moments that showed the control scheme not up to task for such sequences, especially with enemies shooting at you all at once on different levels of the battlefield (some upstairs, some downstairs, etc.). Regardless, thank goodness we have dual analog sticks now on consoles. Best of both worlds.
Oh yeah I remember Perfect Dark. wasn't there a tv show with Jessica Alba? or am I thinking of something else?
lol, that was Dark Angel. One of those shows that had a good premise, a killer looking star, and good backing (James Cameron, of Titanic and The Terminator fame), but it just never really took off either ratings-wise or creatively IMHO. It was sort of the 90s version of Dollhouse in that way.
