On control when you're protecting Natalya. You can go to the stairs on the second floor in the center, and that's where they mainly spawn from the third floor and it's super easy dropping enemies there. Just stand in front of the set that goes up to the third floor.

On 00 agent, it’s much easier from the bottom of the stairs behind Natalia. Blow up both desks on either side of her, before opening her door. From the top of the stairs, it’s MUCH harder to spot the guys behind the glass, when they do come out. Also, if they have Hats, they go for bond. If they DONT have hats, they target Natalia. Makes it easier to decide who to engage first, if getting overrun.

They just rereleased it on Xbox with full online 4 person multiplayer support.

control's always kinda an interesting one with a weird trick i don't think most players realize. every enemy that targets natalia spawns on the top floor from which there's only one stairway leading to the lower levels. there's also a balcony on the second floor overlooking natalia that juts out in a way that you can be close enough to natalia so that she completes her objective while allowing you to monitor this lone stairway and protecting her (you'll still have some guards spawning to your sides targeting you). as long as you don't miss a guard coming down the stairs, protecting natalia is relatively simple.

A few helpful tips for anybody stuck on the Facility 00 agent time: 1. Instead of coming down the stairs into the side room to kill the guard with a keycard (25:50), The PP7 is just loud enough to alert the guards in the control room to come out, saving a few seconds to rush in and out. 2. When you come to end of the hallway nearing the second control room, As soon as you break towards the left door use the KF7 and spray for a few seconds. The guard on the other side will open the locked door and you can spray him down immediately after. 3. Skip the hallway doors. You're better off resetting near the end if Dr Doaks not there, Rather than waste precious time scouring room to room

Good tips. Another good tip is side strafing. When you enter the hallway with the three guards, hide behind one of those pillars. The guards seem to always fire in short bursts, so let them get that first burst out of the way while you're hiding. When you hear that they're done firing, make a break for the door again. You might even be able to pop one or two of them. Personally, I don't toss the mine because explosions are indiscriminate. I always end up taking damage.

Yeah, some of these are a pain, even on the Xbox re-release with better controls. A couple of things I've found to help out: 1. On Control while protecting Natalya, stay on the second floor in front of the stairs. It's a great place to take out every guard. Just ignore her comments. 2. On Cradle after you destroy the console, stay on that same level and run to the fence above Alec. You can then aim for his head without him shooting at you. Then run back through the control house and go to the other side by the fence above where Alec is standing. Repeat until he runs to the bottom floor. When you follow him, fall backwards down the ladder and immediately crouch. You'll get an extra second or two to shoot him. It really helps.

Definitely spot-on list. Those top three are where most of the struggle I had with the target times lied. Though Control and Aztec certainly were somewhat grueling as well. Those super long levels along with Caverns felt the most taxing even if they aren't even the hardest ones necessarily. Facility absolutely took more attempts than anything but given how short that level is the actual time investment might have been less overall.

That being said, I can't currently confirm the strategy works on secret and 00 agent difficulties Edit: too right it was daunting back in the 90's, as not only did we have to deal with level difficulty, but we also had a blurry display, severe framerate dips, and the parts inside the analogue stick wearing down reducing the speed that we can move/turn

One thing I learnt on Control was that at the beginning, those first two computer mainframes make sure you place the mine on the box itself so that the glass next to them breaks because this come in handy for later on when protecting Natalia because you can see the guards run to the sides who break the glass and shoot Natalia.

Great vid!

I am currently in my 00Agent playtrough on Xbox and it's pretty hard - right now at Bunker 2, my least favourite level together with archives. Instead of trying again, I went for some target times. I actually felt, that surface 2 was pretty doable. At least after getting familiar with the level and knowing where to go. I kind of rushed through it, thank god for the fast strafing with the D-Pad. I also forgot about the one camera behind the one hut. Cradle was also okay - it's at least on Agent and a very short and also easy to navigate level. All in all, I feel, most 00 Agent times are pretty hard, just because the difficulty is hard. Well, but maybe only, because I am still getting used to it. Definitly agree with your top 3 though... Nice video!

There's a few things to make these easier, like the cradle, 006 is killable in the chase if you damage him enough in the vulnerable states, on top of that it's faster to actually double back between the operation rooms and wait for him to open the door, he'll actually wait in the room allowing you to shoot him then run to the bottom of the ramp to shoot him again making it twice as fast. Honestly having 100% the game on Xbox makes me both appreciate strafe boosting and realize how much time is actually wasted by sloppy boosting and not using auto aim. Jaws can actually be beat with no issues by blasting him with lasers up close as he comes out of the narrow passage he's standing in front of, he can't shoot you up close most of the time.

You cannot kill Trevelyan before the bottom platform at the end, no matter how many headshots you manage during his damageable points in the chase, he'll just run to the end part much sooner. However, Aztec is an interesting one, because you can actually do it without killing or even encountering Jaws. It doesn't always work, but there's a tactic involving standing in front of the glass door with the disc and blasting it a fair bit with an AR-33, quickly retreating away to the alcove with the terminal that opens the mainframe. Sometimes, a guard goes to the glass door to check out the gunfire, and actually opens it for some reason. In other words, you don't need the ID card from Jaws, and you won't trigger the respawning laser guards. Unfortunately, as I said, it doesn't always work.

Like you say, it depends on how much of a purist you are about completing games properly.

My mates will tell you (and probably some people on Discord and KZread channels) that I'm very particular about not using glitches. I honestly get why people do it, it's just not for me.

These ideas are awesome and I’ve been thinking about them for months, just been messing with me in what order I tackle it all. Be sure to stick around bc they’re coming my dude!

What makes Control level more difficult is that guards can break the glass beside the stairs when defending Nataya. When that happens. The player has to check both sides more regularly while checking the stairs. Usually I break the tables, except the one Nataya needs to use, to make it easier to see the guards. Facility level is definitely the hardest but thankfully one of the quickest missions to clear. I'm not a fan of the random chance with Dr Doak though. I could get a good run when he's not there. I like that he spawns in a random place but not during a very tight target time.

Once did the target time on the villa from perfect dark just before my bus for school arrived. I knew the t.t. was exactly how long i had to get before my bus looped back around to my stop. It was either i get it or im late to school. That was a very satisfying bus ride.

The facility level cheat unlock will require James Bond to become as fast and powerful as both Barry Allen and superman combined

15 suits of body armour and a needle in both eyes full of adrenaline Yep that sums up N64 Jaws

Facility is such strange level. As a player, the 2:05 mark is daunting and seems impossible, a major challenge for such a valuable cheat. However, once you go down the hole of speed running, facility becomes an extremely easy level that is hugely forgiving, and doesn’t even feel challenging. Casually going under 90 seconds isn’t even hard, it’s just a matter of getting the doak spawn. Speedrunning opens a whole can of worms on this game because you never play or see it the same way again

Bunker 1 is more difficult to make consistent so that is my spot 10. Or maybe depot. I’d also swap spot 1 and 3. And basically for the same reason; consistency. Yes facility is the hardest one in the top 3 I agree. But it is also a lot more fun. Yes there is the Doak RNG but other than that it’s a quick attempt and you can enjoy having noticeable progress as you learn to perfect the run. Train and caverns suck more because of the reasons mentioned in the video. 5-8 minute runs just to lose Natalya or the friggin Wade radio. Bloody hell.

Appreciate you watching, bro! Always cool to hear about other players’ experiences and tastes with the levels, I had my gameplay segmented and it basically came down to 1) how long it took and 2) how annoying/frustrating it was. I felt like a lot of these fit in the 10-12 spot, and those double 4:31’s were a factor

Love this vid. Goodwork! I'm replaying on SWITCH with the godawful controls and taking out that Turret in Depot is absolutely torturous. I'm already concerned about the other turrets in later levels. The only saving grace on Depot for me is how disgustingly sick the theme for that level is, I don't mind doing it over and over ha. Anyone know the best control scheme for Switch? They really f'd up on that but I've learned to make it work until these turrets. I'm just unlocking as I get to a level. So I still have top 5 minus facility. Minus Doak spawn, I didn't think it was that hard. I don't think the Spawn luck makes it challenging as much as annoying. Anyway great vid. And glad to see everyone is enjoying the newly-old journey. I saw a bunch of whiney hate vids, but the nostalgia is incredible replaying this I've happily spent hours.

I remember a high school classmate of mine unlocked all the cheats on the N64 version, before the tap-in codes were discovered. We saw him as a living God and it made him genuinely cool. And for future video suggestion: remake this video but for Perfect Dark. Now _that's_ a challenge. Apparently the invincibility cheat on PD was made deliberately easy just to give people a bit of hope and something nice to aim for, in recognition of the fact that the game eventually got too hard to be any fun. 00 Agent is a challenge for the right person. Perfect Agent is sadistic and just too much.

Yesterday I got all Time Targets and also 00 Agent completions on Switch in all levels up until Cradle... I am so scared of Aztec, it gives nightmares. Control, Caverns and Train were incredibly hard but it was satisfying going through them multiple times and developing my own path through the levels (where to stand to shoot soldiers, when to use extra mines, how to save ammo, etc etc). Facility was pure luck LOL

Caverns and Aztec speed runs are so much harder than Facility in my opinion but great video

Sick vid dude

Typing this before watching the video for my own top 5 at least. I'm not sure there are 10 worth talking about, but I know: Train: Cutting the floor, and Natalya not dying - I never got this one. Caverns: Caverns was just long and I never got this one either Facility: Dr. Doak location, and some speedrun strats required for this one. I got it probably some Saturday morning in 1998 and it was a huge feeling of accomplishment. None of the others stick out in my mind. I guess I would round out the top 5 with Control and either Aztec or Jungle: just because they are pretty much the hardest remaining levels in my memory. Now I'll watch the video and see how I did. At #3 (Train) and I can confidently say the rest will be the same as mine. Nailed it.

I'm running back through this game for the first time in over 2 decades, and man, I forgot how challenging it is. Especially with the Switch controls (I'm beginning to get the hang of it now, but aiming is super difficult for sniping). I have been actually conquering more 00 Agent missions now than I did when I was a kid (not sure how many I did without a GameShark). You're right about some of top 5 missions, they are rage inducing. Caverns, and Facility in particular. Ive come so close to Caverns target time (or under) so many times, but the stupid scientists keep getting in the way of destroying the pump controls.

I’m playin on Xbox it’s so easy with two thumb sticks. My bro has switch with the n64. I couldn’t even beat damn on the easiest level. I’m currently on Aztec 00 agent. Not realizing I still have to go back and do earlier difficulties

Cradle is really easy if you take your time and let 006 blow himself up. Just follow him down to the control room, but as soon as you go down the stairs turn 90 degrees left, run to the wall, and stand with your back to it. At this point you should be lined up pretty much with the end of the stair rail and the opposing door. Shoot any guards coming down the stairs, you might have to turn left occasionally to shoot guards coming from the control room, and ~1:45 on the countdown you should hear a grenade clank followed by an explosion and objective B complete ~1:40 on the countdown. Then it's just a matter of opening the door if it's closed, stepping back a little to take out the right corner autogun, take out the left corner autogun from the doorway (shooting guards as required), destroying the console if it wasn't destroyed in the blast, then exit the stage by making your way to the lower platform as per usual. I can't confirm this, but it might be possible to lower your time even further by simply dying on the way out, as on my first cradle run on my most recent playthrough (xbox series x) I killed 006 the traditional way on the lower platform, but someone threw a grenade (006 martyrdom perhaps?) Which exploded, killing bond, and resulting in the cutscene where bond falls from the platform. I didn't get any end credits, but agent difficulty was ticked off when I went to run it again for the Gold PP7. For what it's worth, my best times on cradle are 1:24, 1:25, and 1:23 respectively on this playthrough (respective runs) once I remembered how to get Alec to blow himself up. P.s. there's a body armour behind the pylon at the start, but you don't need it, not even for 00 Agent Edit: wait, I ment 2:45 and 2:40 respectively. I thought the timer was 2 minutes, not 3

Facility...a total nightmare. I finally beat the level in time, but the level burnt into my memory to the point that I had a dream about it. Dr. Doak, 006, and the gas tanks are such trolls.

Yep after hour or so of trying i finally had a run and I left the lvls before the game checked the box for the gas tanks exploding, my motivation 📉

Take the multiplayer away and this is still one of my favorite games ever. The campaign is so much fun. And once you've completed every level on 00 agent, you get the additional challenge of trying to unlock every cheat. Man this game is so good. I replay it every couple of years and always have a blast. Something I've wondered is, is the cheat harder if it takes you more tries or takes you more time? Archives might take 20 tries but if it only takes 30 minutes, who cares?

The multiplayer was added in secret at the last minute without permission from management. The reason you slide around on your knees is because they didn't build the animations. Such a wonderful backstory for something so iconic.

Completed all the time runs and have all cheats. Took me 3 days :). The train was not as bad as I remembered. Actually got train almost done on the first try . Shot in back running from train lol. Also managed to beat the Aztec level in the record time but under 00 agent wow. Unfortunately it doesn’t give you the cheat unless you do it under secret agent. Fun playing this again though. Wish they came up with a way to play multiplayer online but I’m happy for a direct port of the game to Xbox.

There is simply no other choice for number 1, when i did it when i was young, it took me an intense day of playing to get it! And damn the joy when i finally achieved it 😂 !

My first clear time surviving on pave was a 2:03 // you can save a few seconds by intentionally spamming [negating your silencer] shooting the floor rapidly as you are coming down the restroom stairs// still need that damned keycard from the guard under the rest room but can immediately reach the console without waiting for the door to open because you summoned the guards... you'll likely be hit but it is almost a full 3 seconds faster// switch to the rifle - its rough, but after all, you are James Bond

Took me 15 hours to get all Xbox Achievements! Facility I agree was the hardest time trials! Archie’s was also a struggle! Cavern was okay just had to take my time and to converse ammo I only used the pistol the whole time.

I recently got 100% on Goldeneye on the Xbox One port. I know it's easier there than on the original N64 version. That said, once you know the strategies, most of these weren't too bad to get. Facility is the worst to get, but still didn’t take me more than 10 attempts on each save slot. But I had help through YT tutorials. I can't imagine figuring these out and performing them on the original N64. Major respect to the OGs. As a kid I couldn't beat Surface 2 Agent alone, because I was too scared. 😂

Archives for me, everything else was easy enough. My best was 1:19 and couldn't figure out how to draw better lol

Going through this right now myself and i have tonsay frigate is pretty easy. I ended with 2:30 something. There is definitely an optimized path where you hit everything without needing to backtrack. I recomend entring the bridge from the other side as the hostage wont be blocking your line of site. Im currently stuck on statue park.

Just started Goldeneye on Xbox and started with Facility first not knowing it’s the hardest time run. I beat that time, now it just gets easier from here🤘🏻

I’m playing through Golden eye on Xbox as it was just rereleased yesterday. When I was a kid, I had all the target times completed. I am wondering how the heck I was able to do that on an N64 controller lol. Much easier with an Xbox controller now. I’m doing the target times in order and of course facilities was #2. It took me 3 hours to get it. I just kept repeating my run until I got Dr Doak in the glass rooms to make it easy. I am sweating the thought of doing train as I recall that one being a pain for a very long time in my N64 days.

Before looking at it, I hated doing Caverns and Jungle on 00 Agent. Everything else was pretty free for me as a kid.

Ahh that archive run

I got Cradle target first try yesterday just doing it casually to finish the game on the switch version. I was like what!!

I used to be the go-to guy to get cheats for all my mates. I was 13. Now I know why I was untouchable in Facility. I memorised all the spawn points and threw remote mines there, actually quite sick.

As an 11 year old kid, I was very good at this game. I used to charge people at school £5 to unlock everything for them happy days. Jump forward to when I was 35. I bought an n64 again and really struggled with this. So maddening.

Already knew number 1 before starting the video 😂

I only just learnt last few weeks that to completely make this level easier mainly protecting Natalya, don;t protect her from where she is standing, instead stand on the higher platform, the stairs where you went up to get the armour, apparently all the guards will come through through there and u easily pick them off till Natalya is done. no guards go downstairs or go through the glass

Very true! These next level strategies thanks to all of these optimizers and runners totally change the authentic and conventional style of play from when we first played these games. Its amazing stuff!

i thought aztec was gonna be alot harder than it was. got all achievements on xbox and id say caverns gave me the most trouble and control was the most time consuming...honestly the hardest part of all this wasnt the speed running but was remembering how to complete levels..like archives shooting a window to jump out off maybe i skipped past the reports but i dont know how i figured that out as a kid and depot had me running in circles..also shooting xenia to give you more time

Statue was the hardest for me. It used to be facility until I found out about the mine trick

I do feel bad for the people who played this for the original N64 cart. I played the game with a PS4 controller and it was still very challenging. Besides possibly the first ranked lower ranked levels, I agree with the entirety of the list. 15:16 That, or running up close to him and spray bullets at him, he can't hit you if your too close to him like every other enemy in the game. 22:40 I did not know that's what causes those enemies to appear behind you. Those enemies are the reason I failed multiple runs. It's one of the few major-ish flaws I dislike are the infinite reinforcements.

As a player of this game that beat every mission on 00 agent and got every cheat. Facility is without a doubt the toughest one because not only do you have to play the level fast and well, but you have to have dr doak at the right spot too. Very unfair cheat but possible with enough trial and error

Seeing Archives so low down is mind boggling.

Back when I was a kid I unlocked every cheat apart from invincibility on Facility. No matter how much I attempted it, I never was able to beat the time. The damn random Doak spawns always threw me off.
