10 Incredible DITCHED Video Game Ideas

GoldenEye 007 is one of the most beloved and iconic FPS games of all time for damn fine reason, though the iconic console shooter was very nearly even better, if not for pesky licensing issues getting in the way.

Originally, developers Rare planned to include the option to play as the Sean Connery, Roger Moore, and Timothy Dalton James Bonds in the game's multiplayer suite.

However, for "various reasons" - widely accepted to pertain to likeness rights problems - Rare weren't able or allowed to include the feature in the final game.

Though the image files of Connery, Moore, and Dalton were indeed kept on GoldenEye's cartridge and eventually retrieved by the modding community, players sadly never got the chance to act out the crowd-pleasing wish fulfilment of an all-Bond battle royale.
