Line 64:
* [[No Sidepaths, No Exploration, No Freedom]]: Despite using the gameplay style of modern ''[[Call of Duty]]'' games, this trope is [[Averted Trope|miraculously averted]]. There is always more than one path to complete your objective, and there are many ways to achieve most goals.
* [[One-Hit Polykill]]: Possible with a sniper rifle.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: To make Daniel Craig's replacement of Pierce Brosnan as Bond less jarring, all of the other characters in the single player campaign have also had their appearances completely altered as well. They're all new designs (some based on the voice actors), but it does fail a little in terms of polish -- notably, 006 looks rather doughy and generic for a super agent/supervillain. His scar isn't noticeable.
** Though Ourumov, at least, actually looks somewhat better, since his character model no longer has a [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080510032447/goldeneye/images/c/cf/Ourumov.png vacant expression] frozen on its face like in the original game.
*** But he's missing his [[Nice Hat|epic hat]], ''and'' he's fat, so he's an easy target in Heroes.
** Zukovsky is no longer played by [[Harry Potter|Hagrid]], but at least he maintains a [[Large Ham]] attitude in multiplayer and he's not a bullet-magnet in Heroes mode.
* [[Pragmatic Adaptation]]: A number of changes were made to the ''Goldeneye'' plot to fit with the change in timeline to 2010. Most notably, 006's motivations are changed from getting revenge for Britain's betrayal of his Lienz Cossack parents to anger over the War on Terror and the Great Financial Meltdown, and how big banks made a killing while everyone else suffered.
** {{spoiler|Zukovsky is killed a couple dozen seconds after you meet him. After all, he does die in the films eventually, and it's not like they're planning on making a ''[[The World Is Not Enough]]'' game later.}}
