Goldeneye for 360 Arcade PETITION

Night Fire · 01-12-2008, 07:22 PM

Some of you might already know that Goldeneye for the 360 has been canned, but a petition might help. It already has about 1000 supporters, so sign, please.

I've yet to see an online petition accomplish anything.

You're wrong. I saw an online petition for unblocking Myspace at schools. It didn't do anything, but there were some very mature and well thought out comments.

"why shood dey blok mysapse done dey no we meet da luv uv ar lief der?"

As you can see, they do have some impact

But this isn't that simple. This is because of a disagreement between MS and Nintendo, it isn't just a matter of making some new cover art, and charging $10 more.

I have no idea. I'm just going by what the petition says.

To: Gamers
Rare's Goldeneye 007, one of the best First Person Shooters of all-time, has currently been canned for release via the Xbox LIVE Arcade on the Xbox 360 due to a disagreement between Microsoft and Nintendo on the proceeds.

Fortunately, it seems that a public outcry is all that is needed to still have this classic title see release. We, the fans, must prove to both Microsoft and Nintendo just how badly we want to see one of gaming's greatest titles re-emerge and enlighten the hearts of many of us Goldeneye/Rare fans once again.

If you truly do want to see Goldeneye re-released on the Xbox LIVE Arcade, then sign this petition. You will be playing your part in the game's future.

Sign now and let your voice be heard!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned

either way i want to play this game, it better come out for one of my consoles lol

I don't really understand why people are so interested in these old games coming to the new consoles. Its like getting excited because you can install DOS on your PC. If you want to play them then get an emulator and play them on your computer, that way you don't have to get screwed with absurd prices for some old piece of shit that they've already made a bunch of money off, and you've probably already purchased. If you don't want to break the law then go to your local video game store and buy the game for 15¢, throw it in a box where you won't ever see it and download the ROM.

Holy shit guys sign the shit out of that. I signed it thrice. (using multiple emails I just happen to have).

paintba||er · 01-13-2008, 04:43 AM

LOL I have a domain, so I could make shitloads of email accounts to sign it with. Somebody would probably notice when there are 500 signatures @paintballer.us.tt though....

I don't really think they care. There's some website you can go to that will create a temporary email address for you. Actually I think the email address is always there, it just lets you use it.
