April Fools! There are some inaccuracies here that should give it away - good eye for those that pointed them out! Here's some information: The weapon names should have their real-world counterpart. The KF7 Soviet was called "Kalashnikov AK47" during development when it had this weapon model. It is also not certain if enemies would have that red splatter instead of the yellow/white one from the final game, or if the olive guards were in Facility alongside the tan ones. Some people brought up the "Spyder" name, but that'd be the Klobb. The Klobb went from Skorpion VZ/61 to the Spyder and finally the Klobb, in reference to Ken Lobb. This is once again a real tape and no / minimal editing. I let my friend that never really played GoldenEye control Bond here, because if it were me even if I was pretending it'd have been too obvious. To get that old tape feeling I... microwaved it for 15-20 seconds, and damaged some other parts of the tape manually. Before doing this I recorded it before damaging it and again after the damage was done so I could stitch them together. The beta KF7 model is made by Flargy, you can get it here: n64vault.com/ge-model-templates:beta-kf7-soviet - This is a model template though, not a patch / mod. This is for mod creators to add it to their maps. The rocket launcher model wasn't released, but I believe it was made by Flargy as well. The rest was recreated by CrashOveride. Some of you may remember this from 2020 when I livestreamed this, but now I wanted to make it more convincing for those that forgot and newcomers. I crashed the game on purpose before entering the lab area because the bottling room would have been a dead giveaway that this is fake, as the tanks are not stacked like they were around the time of this beta. If you want to see real footage and screenshots of the beta, check out this website: tcrf.net/Prerelease:GoldenEye_007_(Nintendo_64)

I was expecting jump scare whenever tape feezes out lmao

This explains the screenshots on the back of the game.

babe wake up new goldeneye lore dropped

Changing the walls from light grey to dark grey seemed like the right decision

I’m thinking a very well done April Fools prank. Still cool regardless though!

That rocket looks cool I see why they changed it takes too much screen space up. Glad to see the door trick works in this early version too to speed run

That's a nice footage. I discovered that was first released on February 30th 1997

Holy crap so that's what those unused sounds are! It's awesome to see this after all these years.

Interesting to hear the kf7 soviet sounding like the ak47 from counter strike, that rocket launcher is comedically large 😂

Original AK looked so much better but I do think the iconic pencil was better for humanity in the end.

I love the amount of effort that went into this

"Okay, I'm waiting for the punchline."

The hand from the rocket launcher bro... Suddenly traspasses the gun due to a issue

People are easy to fool when they forget the date. Love the machine gun model though.

The rocket launcher with hand animation is very similar to the rocket launcher with hand in Twine N64.

For the next year, we need a goldeneye beta Virtua cop like

Amazing world record! Clear quality, no mods used, no splicing detected...you're on your way to the top of the leaderboards!

Imagine playing this in 1996 not knowing you're about to change gaming forever.

lol looking back a month later, i didn't realize this was an april fools joke.

Getting a Killer7 vibe from this with some of the lighting techniques

As soon as I saw the autoaim, I was like this ain't Graslu

I'm just nodding my head and being all "uh huh, the KF7 looks more like an AK than the finished version, that's cool" and then all of a sudden a Carl Gustav out of nowhere 0_0

Font hinting: Picked up a Clarance Beau / B (Buffy) Ends with the realisation it was a Green Giant runner factory for Jenner.

They made an almost perfect Ak 47 but decided to scrap it for the pencil since it was April 1st. Rare was something rare

I really feel like I should do a lightgun rail shooter hack for goldeneye like it was originally going to be before they decided just to make it a FPS.

I feel like I’m watching something I shouldn’t be allowed to watch

Haters will say it isn’t real

This was really good but I don't fall easily on April Fools pranks hahaha! If it is, then its a really good recreation, specially the Rocket Launcher, unexpected.

Bond was holding two hands with the Rocket Launcher, this could be a pre-build version of Perfect Dark.

I'm glad they fixed all the issues. But also kinda sad they couldn't find a way to keep the rocket launcher in that mission🤷‍♂️.

ahhhhh, you uploaded this to scare me specifically

I like the design and the sound effect of the beta KF7, more than the original...

Love that AK47 sound when firing! Maybe it alerts too many guards but after all the real and original AK47 sound is very discernible.

I had heard a friend of Flargee and Johnny Thunder supposedly had some beta footage in storage. Was this all of it? Was hoping for something other than Facility, as it has more of the known images.

Next year do the Island On Dam with the boat!

I wish someone would create the original bloodsplatter mod. That pic on the back of the box has stuck with me all these years.

This makes me wonder if anyone is working on a "beta version" mod for GoldenEye.

There isn’t a video I can find explaining the missing gun that I believe was called the spyder that’s ok box art but not in final game

happy April fools Graslu

That AK47 actually sounds better than the one used in the actual game

I always thought this gun was in the game and was called the spyder because I could never find it despite it being in the manual. I spent forever trying to figure out how to find it as a kid.

That's pretty interesting! Nice to see how they used to be, there was nothing in that room where you choose to go to the gas tanks or the other side.

Very cool! Where did you find this? Awesome to see.

the auto-aim seems much stronger. cool footage Grasslu00!

Any idea why they changed the kf7 model? I actually preferred the old one

Yeah, I don't recall hearing the sound of the rifle when shooting or even the steel bathroom doors lol. Still looks cool!

Counter Strike 1.6 AK sound (?

any idea why they changed model and sound of KF7?

I have no idea why Rare chose to ditch this AK model and settle for a bent pencil looking one

Happy 1st of April 😂

The KF7 looks like it has a Reflex sight on it.

I like this version of the K-7 more. It looks more realistic.

Cool level.

Dat Counter-Strike AK sound tho

This must have been mind blowing back then, the graphics were way ahead of anything on the n64 at the time.

I know the back of the box I got the beta picture of ak - I think the white hit splash was red as well. Anyone else, of course the game is what everyone else had. (EU)

I love when you add Mario 64 maps to goldeneye can you every level into a goldeneye map , I would love see baron samedi in sand land or hazy maze cave with the caverns theme

Dope

I''ve never been a gamer, except for this one game. and even though ive not played it in years it is so engrained in my psyche i can still destroy anyone in multiplayer on the 64 . you could say i'm a natural , lol

Wow they really pushed the envelope on this

Very stealthy gameplay 😂

I actually prefer the AK in this version of the game, than the final one, where we get a pencil gun.

Whoa... You preserved the tape of the gameplay footage of the GoldenEye Beta? What a sight for my sore eyes! 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇

Who was playing this? The move in time to the music at points! The rocket launcher actually looks good apart from the clipping

i would love a rom hack of the beta version wish rare could leak it like they did with the xbox leaked 😢

I got fooled for a good minute.

Cool

🏳️‍🌈📺🎮📼 That's really good April Fools prank & I realized VHS tapes style to record. I had to hands down for you did champ. 📼🎮📺🏳️‍🌈

It's been a month. Please update the title on your April Fools stuff if you're going to leave it up. I got to this video via recommends probably because I've been watching a lot of your other Goldeneye stuff lately, and this one in particular is frustrating because I could have easily missed the reveal that this is not real.

multitude dude

KF-7 sounds a little like the ZMG 😂

Well damn, the rocket launcher took up half the screen. It's a good thing they fixed that.

did you tilt the cartridge in order to crash the game?

I guess it hurts a little that we don't have footage of what GoldenEye looked like when it was still a SNES game. Wild to think Rare was actually tryna go for it, they understood the assignment and still was gonna make it happen. It could've been GTA a full year before GTA was a thing. There's so many what-ifs regarding that time you have to wonder what the team was actually aiming for.

Boy, that tape is in really rough shape.

No proximity mines tho…

Your brutal at this game lol

wow real!!!!

I'm a VHS boi and can tell this is an April fools.

They need to remaster nightfire

You can definitely pick up the comments from those younglings who've never experienced overused VHS tapes lol.

Idc if this is fake (the name KF7 Soviet was given after the AK-47 model was replaced by the Norinco Type 56), but this looks so good.

I know you won't reply to this but i love your videos but i was upset because i never get to use anything besides the pistol on goldeneye but everyone else starts out with rc p90s and stuff

dirty 🔥

i kind knew it was fake since beta version have a different lighting and textures too.

I’m glad they changed the AK sound. The Soviet/Phantom sound is superior and now too iconic not to hear

Where did you find this @Graslu00

Where did this footage surface?

Brilliant! 🤣🤣🤣

for England James !!!!! 🏌🏿‍♀️

It is very convincing. The only thing that is missing as far as I can see is the beta red colored hit marker.

Looks like the PS1 final version

Is this real or April fools? I've never seen that rocket launcher model before or James Bond hand, very cool!

VHS tape edit gave it away 😅

Wow cool. I like that old AK47 better. Rocket launcher no

Ah yes the classic 'your vhs cassette tape is dirty' noise and distortion throughout the footage. Nostalgic but not welcomed back

すごい！

Oh não pode ser

Why didn't they keep that gun model? It makes a lot more sense
