GoldenEye Holy Grail?

General
So after Rare was sold to Microsoft, one of their projects was a remastering of Perfect Dark, which was released on Xbox Live Arcade a while back. However, and this is something I had only heard about recently, they were also working on a GoldenEye remaster. It got most of the way done before MGM/Eon pulled the plug, and was destined to never see the light of day, aside from short preview videos. There were rumors of leaks, but those remained just rumors. Until this video was released:

How this was leaked will remain a mystery, but this is nonetheless big news! The game itself is still not publicly available, but we've been told it will be unofficially released later this year.
While this is just pretty much the original game with updated graphics, it's still pretty awesome to see, with more details and no fog. The main character models are off, but I think that's due to licensing issues. Being incomplete, some bits are missing (like the water in Frigate), but all the levels are completable. Nice!
