GoldenEye Returns with Preorder Bonuses

More On: Goldeneye 007
Did you think that the Golden Classic Controller Pro was the only piece of swag coming with GoldenEye 007? That controller is pretty classy but depending on where you preorder the game, there are other goodies to be had. Gamestop gives you an unlock for the invisibility power in multiplayer, while Best Buy is offering the Tag Mode game type. Wal-Mart has a piece of actual swag, with the "cheater" t-shirt emblazoned with Oddjob's signature bowler hat.

Seriously, what's with all the hate for Oddjob? I know he was short and hard to hit back on the N64, but in the movie he was taller than Sean Connery, and in any case a decent player could handle him with no problem. Besides, everyone knows the best cheap character was Arctic Commando--his gray color scheme camouflaged him so well against those foggy N64 graphics.




 

Starting today, fans can pre-order GoldenEye 007 for Wii at GameStop to receive an exclusive* code to unlock Invisibility Mode for split screen multiplayer. Invisibility Mode allows each player to become invisible for a set period of time. Run right up to other players without them ever seeing you and catch them off guard with a surprise attack in the heat of battle! *Exclusive until Dec. 31, 2010. For more info and an exclusive video sneak peek, visit this link. Get Invisible. Get the Edge. Get Your Friends.



Eager fans who purchase a copy of GoldenEye 007 at Best Buy will receive an exclusive* code to unlock Tag Mode for splitscreen multiplayer. Tag Mode takes the classic playground game and gives it a twist on the Wii. The player who is “tagged” cannot eliminate an opponent until they tag someone else - creating fast, frenetic multiplayer action where players are sprinting at each other from all angles. *Exclusive until Dec. 31, 2010. For more info and an exclusive video sneak peek, visit BestBuy.com.


For fans who love Oddjob, reserve the game at Walmart.com or purchase the game at launch at a Walmart store near you to score an exclusive Oddjob “Cheater” T-shirt. Go here for an image of the shirt, which players can proudly show off to proclaim their love for this classic, but often controversial, multiplayer character. Watch out for Oddjob’s bowler hat!
