Golden Bond controller bundled down under

Although there's been no official release date set for the reboot, the megapublisher announced overnight that it would be releasing a hardware bundle of the new Goldeneye 007, which comes with a limited edition gold-colored Classic Controller Pro. The bundle will be available at launch for A$119.95 ($107), while the software-only edition of the game will be going for A$89.95 ($80).

Goldeneye 007 debuted at the 2010 Electronic Entertainment Expo during the Nintendo press conference to the cheers of adoring fans. The game is being developed by Eurocom, and despite trying to mimic the Goldeneye 007 experience as closely as possible, the new game contains several noticeable differences, such as Daniel Craig replacing Pierce Brosnan as the main character, as well as tweaks to level design and the addition of new weapons.
