Goldeneye for Xbox Live Arcade put on indefinite hold
You might have been ecstatic when we reported that Goldeneye was soon coming to Live Arcade, but it’s time to change your Myspace moods to depressed because the game has been put on an indefinite hold. The reason behind the unfortunate turn of events is a licensing disagreement between Microsoft and Nintendo. It’s no wonder really, given Nintendo probably want their legendary game on their own arcade service.
Want even more hurt? The game was only 2 months away from release and included all the maps and weapons of the original. Worst of all it was all set up for online multiplayer.
If you are of the opinion that online petitions have actually achieved anything, then you might want to head over to this one and help reverse the decision.
