Goldeneye on your PC – no, not that ‘Steam’ crap.

April 7th, 2009

Miss your n64? Wish you could play Goldeneye without getting Steam and playing some multiplayer mock-up? Well…, you can!

Tools required: PC running windows, Xbox 360 Wired control, Project64, G.E Rom (takes less than 5mins to setup!)

Download the n64 emulator from http://www.pj64-emu.com/downloads/ and install. After this is complete a quick search on coolrom will return the ‘rom’ you need (replica of the game) From here you will want to extract the zip file and load it into project64 (file >open). If you have a wired xbox control just plug it in and it should install automatically (you can also use any input device)

I personally belive i have found the perfect contoller setup:

Controller layout x360

 Rx is the right Analogue and Ry is the left analogue, – & + refer to up and down. (think of it in maths-graph terms?)

I did reverse A and B though as i kept ending up switching weapons accidently =(

Also you can use the pov0-4 (the control d-pad) to move but why would you when you have two really sensitive joyticks. Happy hunting for that golden gun!

Taking this idea further, hook up your HDTV as a main monitor with the VGA cable (HD is pointless:P) and add upto 4 input devices (only one keyboard ideally!) and have yourself some retro-group-fun.

Note: i know this isn’t a new idea and couldn’t care less if your a 1337 h4×0r who’s been doing this for years, this article is aimed at helping everyone enjoy modern technology!
