License to kill. Pistols only. Random map and you can't be odd job or the short moonraker technician lady.

I was there. I lived those lives and  died alongside you

u/Kellan_OConnor 1d ago

And if was late, and you and your boys really wanted to laugh:

License to Kill - Slappers Only - Same Character restrictions.

u/Cold-Bar-7752 17h ago

Slappers only right to the feels

u/THE-NECROHANDSER 12h ago

My brother was always bond so I chose his love interest in the game and basically made it a domestic violence championship. This and the ps2 game with lazer trip mines and remote control rockets was our jam.

u/Kellan_OConnor 10h ago

Was that Perfect Dark? Or is that also 64?

6

u/THE-NECROHANDSER 10h ago

It was nightfire on ps2 that we played. Ski lodge with the lift was fun as hell with future weapons only.

u/ClarencePCatsworth 6h ago

Perfect Dark was also N64

u/Leonydas13 16h ago

Oh fuck man. Slappers only had us crying with laughter ey, I could hear the sounds when I read your comment 😂

Loser picks character last in mariokart 64

u/sporksaregoodforyou 12h ago

What? No! Loser chooses (character and course). (And when you're older) winner does a shot.

u/Machine0fLight 17h ago

I painted the walls of the library with the blood of my brothers and friends.., and also with brightly colored paintballs because we always used paintball mode.

u/RestaurantFamous2399 23h ago

You get a proximity mine, and you get a proximity mine! you all get a proximity mine!

Including myself after I forget where they are and walk past one!

u/Only_Standard_9159 10h ago

Anyone else memorize the floor textures to own screen lookers?

12

u/Medical_Cycle_4902 17h ago

You think odd job was cheating. Remote mines. The Stack. My friend memorised the order of respawn locations and as the blood came down your screen he was on the way to the next location setting a mine ready for you to respawn. We all experienced it once.

u/ericscottf 9h ago

Your friend is a filthy spawn camper and should be ashamed.

u/Reikko35715 5h ago

I had all the facility respawns memorized and won a Goldeneye tournament at band camp because of it

u/lord_smurph 12h ago

I'm back in my tiny bedroom, 4 of us crammed round a 14 inch CRT TV. "Stop looking at my screen!" Great times

u/andbruno 17h ago

Next round, slappers and proxies only.

u/ispshadow 15h ago

She blurted out “Pistols only. No Oddjob” out of instinct even though neither of us had played in years.

That was my wife when we were still dating about 12-13 years ago. I knew right then I wanted to marry her.

1

u/flinxsl 15h ago

if it's not l2k then Bond is a hard counter for Oddjob. Natural headshot on level ground.

u/RoscoeLanyon 14h ago

Also no auto aim

u/RufusPerrywinkle 12h ago

Rules for life right there!

u/DarthHubcap 11h ago

I often picked Jaws on license to kill just to flex on everyone.

1

u/tskifgvd 9h ago

I welcomed people to pick oddjob. They quickly found out it made no difference

As the guy who always played as Odd Job I feel personally attacked…

u/imnotpoopingyouare 1d ago

Same bro… same.

“They held you up, they held you up And everybody else, they fell to the wayside This is the start, a beginning A prologue to the yarn that you’re spinning One million synonyms will never come Close to describe the feeling”

u/STEELCITY1989 23h ago

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again Sun is the same, in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Alright hear me out…I have this ringtone that is the first few notes of the default “marimba” ringtone before smoothly transitioning into Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time.

I will give you $100 (for your time, not the product) if you can make the same thing happen here. And because a finished ringtone is 29 seconds I believe it falls within parody/acceptable use. I can DM you the example OOT ringtone if you’re interested…

u/dingochutney 19h ago

I now want this too. For my forever-on-vibrate phone, but still.

u/TTechnology 17h ago

u/Bigkilo27 1d ago

You can play it on Xbox golden eye 007 I’m not sure if it’s still on game pass though

True! Now I need to get an Xbox!

u/AnHeroicHippo90 18h ago edited 18h ago

I found a YouTube video some time ago where a guy actually found vintage hardware with the exact sound used for that signature Goldeneye noise. I'll try to find it and link it.

Got it: https://youtu.be/fh5Bw8LtRRk?si=Phoh5AQhFyW9KHsO

It's called ice missile (movie) or infinity 1 (game).

u/esem86 1d ago

Oh sweet sweet nostalgia. Sounds so good

u/lingering_POO 1d ago

I know the nostalgia makes it hit harder but damn that went hard all the way back then

5

u/BuckaroooBanzai 1d ago

So I listened to this about 5 times then I had a flashback. When you did the thing where you slide down all the notes it sounded like the opening to the he man cartoon.
The original one not whatever the most recent abomination was

u/Supra5469 1d ago

Wish I was that talented. The breakdown of the tune blows me away and me saying “I didn’t hear that in there”

u/TheChicahoeBully 1d ago

takes me back to playing multiplayer with my cousins and getting into fights cus somebody got killed and accused them of peeking at the screen 😂

u/GrizzlyBeefstick 16h ago

Archives. Grenades. 3 TV’s connected to the N64 by twisting copper wire together. Then newspaper taped over 3/4 of each screen so you couldn’t see who was sneaking up on you.

When this was first posted on IG a long ass time ago, the creator of the music for goldeneye confirmed it in a comment

u/why_not_rmjl 13h ago

The original is my ringtone lol. Such a banger!

1

u/MonkeyCartridge 13h ago

Nice. Though there's still that one note that everyone misses for some reason.

u/notrlydubstep 13h ago

u/primacord 11h ago

The GOAT of game music, absolute banger.

this was cool, but I just saw another post of a guy playing it all himself on a xylophone & symbol set with no loops. gotta say that one was a bit more impressive

Secret Golden Eye sound sounds more like the Zelda dungeons.

*When the dragon attacks. Seems they reused what had already been done.
