Had to Ventilate Someone...

Climbing Back Up The Facility Vent

A total game-changer for GoldenEye 007 Multiplayer when this trick was first discovered...
Game had been out for almost a year before we learned that one could actually get back up into the Facility ventilation shaft.

Had seen guards do it - Literally popping up and down.
The trick can be performed both in single-player Mission mode, or in Multiplayer.

Whether or not Rareware intended for the player to be able to accomplish this, I'm not certain.
Just assuming that it's a glitch - But a rather fun one.

"Straight up, with a twist."

With new rules of engagement, Multiplayer was never the same....

 

Licensed to Make Bad Puns
If there's a "License to..." play on words that I haven't already heard, I'll eat Oddjob's hat.
(assuming the prop is in a movie museum somewhere, alongside a collection of Bond Girl bikinis)

The very same issue of Nintendo Power challenged players to submit photos of all 23 Cheats unlocked in the Cheats folder. (This was long before button codes were known).

Just assuming that sending in a photo of all 24 Cheats (including Line Mode, accessible via Gameshark) would get you banned for life from entering their contests. (Pretty sure they asked that your N64 was visible when you took the "screen shot" - Which is fake-able enough, by bringing another N64 into the picture. Or by recording your Cheats folder on VHS tape.)

Had better things to do, anyway - Like hopelessly trying to locate the "All Bonds" characters playable for Multiplayer (Not yet realizing that only the images remain, character models long deleted). So there was never any chance of a simple "plug & play" Gameshark code like re-activating the fully functional Statue & Cradle Multiplayer levels.

Same Nintendo Power mag also features a challenge for 1080 Snowboarding, an early N64 title.
Completed that particular game on a weekend rental - Although it's definitely challenging to pull of the game's title move, with just two successful "TEN-EIGHTY!" jumps successfully landed. (One was performed with some big air, the other one was somehow accomplished with just a small hop off a ridiculously small jump)
