Phil Spencer Reveals Xbox Has Tried To Get The Rights To GoldenEye Many Times

When Rare Replay launched earlier this year, there was a title quite obviously missing from the collection and it's arguably one of the most important in Rare's history. Indeed, GoldenEye didn't make its way to the collection, and that is thanks to a pretty complicated rights situation between Nintendo and Activision.

It wasn't for the lack of trying though. Speaking on Twitter, Xbox boss Phil Spencer said that he has tried to get a deal done on the game more than once, but it has proved fruitless each time.

This was actually in response to the suggestion of a Rare developed remake. It's a hell of an idea, even if I'm not sure there is anyway to win that. We got remake of the game before and it didn't go so great…
