Why was Oddjob so short in Goldeneye? He was tall in the Goldfinger movie.

It seems likely that he was confused with the actually diminutive Nick Nack from The Man with the Golden Gun.
>>
>>3396381
You might say his height is quite odd
>>
>>3396384
That makes sense.
>>
I don't remember him being that tall in the Goldfinger movie, he looked short and fat.

Not what I'd call tall, but also not "ducking below a hail of bullets" either.

Oddjob = 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m)

James Bond = 6 ft 2in (1.88 m)

Connery was just taller.

They probably messed around with skins, wouldn't surprise me if they figured "oh.. Oddjob is more popular, better swap some faces"

>>3396384
Lol that reminds me of when we were kids, there was a weird little man who looked like Nick Nack but we all used to call him Oddjob.

It was years later I realised Oddjob wasn't even the midget one.

That was my first thought on seeing this thread, made me kek. But I never thought a game dev would make such a dumb mistake!

PS: the weird midget man was found dead in the gutter a few years later, apparently collapsed on his way home from a local pub.

Holy crap, Oddjob was never this small.

Almost makes you think they just fucked up with the height settings of the model.
What if originally Oddjob AND Nick Nack were both in, and the plan was to use the same body but different heights and faces.

Would have saved up memory.

It may have been something as odd as a licensing issue. Hervé Villechaize will always be iconically associated with Fantasy Island. His likeness rights may have even been tied up by some other game.
>>
I'm not very known with Goldeneye, so forgive me if this is common knowledge.
but has anyone ever hacked in the "all Bonds" cheat? apparently the face art is still in the rom.

Would be neat to create a Goldeneye Uncut romhack, with all Bonds and Nick Nack.

There are probably some gameshark codes for it somewhere.

I actually googled for it after asking and found like 3 different romhacks,
should try them out on my ED64 sometime.

Also an instant kill melee attack, since he's supposed to be a martial arts master.

You're right. I never seen the films. looked it up.

Harold Sakata was 1.72 m (5'10).

Holy fuck I always read it as "A View to Kill" my entire life.
>>
>>3399405
It makes more sense in it's original form, "From a View to a Kill"
>>
>>3398158
Great music, decent gameplay, just not enough stages and some of bond's animations are goofy.

>>3398085
I had no idea this existed.

The Mandela Effect at it again boyo

How was your drowning episode/near fatal car accident?

I got into Moore Bond movies recently and loved them, they have the perfect balance between silly humor and action scened that would translate perfectly into a game.
When Legends was anounced I was hyped as fuck, but then fucking Daniel Craig.

I imagine that the monkeys in Timesplitters were an evolution of Oddjob.

This would be an interesting thing to ask the original developers about.

>character-specific abilities
Trevelyan should have 2 lives.
Ouromov should have a flask he could drink from to heal.
Baron Samedi should be unkillable.
Helicopter Pilot should get a helicopter to fly around in.
Terrorist should have a suicide attack.
Civilian shouldn't be able to use guns.
Moonraker Elite should get to travel to space and fight CIA space warriors.
Xenia should look hotter than her in-game model.

I used to play Jaws all the time when I was playing worse players. When I found a new group that was just as good, I had to concede defeat and play someone else.

Still played Mr. Blonde in PD though, I liked their short/tall dichotomy better (Tall players often avoid headshots in close combat and score them more often due to the auto-aim adjustment, aliens have huge heads on short bodies meaning if they get hit, it's usually in the head.).

He an hero'd because he was in constant pain due to health problems. He shot himself in his house.

Yeah, is amazing how they nailed it with so little amount of pixels. that's really what I call great pixel artists.

Weird how Jaws looks like a retarded mook from a 90's DC cartoon though.

Nobody looked hot in the Goldeneye engine.
