GoldenEye 007 has a built-in Cheat Options menu with nearly two dozen codes that are automatically activated when you meet certain objectives. These codes can only be accessed by meeting the correct requirements; there are no controller codes to activate them.

The following codes are enabled in the Cheat Options menu by completing the appropriate level on the specified difficulty level in the time allowed:

Level	Cheat	Difficulty	Time
Level 1 - Dam	Paintball Mode	Secret Agent	2:40
Level 2 - Facility	Invincibility	00 Agent	2:05

Other weapon cheats can be enabled merely by completing certain levels:

In some GoldenEye levels, you can find some weapons that can be "paired," so Bond can hold one in each hand. In most places, the game limits you to two of the same weapon. To a limited extent, you can use the following trick to mix the types of weapons you have paired.

To do this trick, you must have two sets of paired weapons that appear next to each other in your weapon list, and some ammo for each gun. One example of this is the Military Archives, where you can have two Dostoveis and two Klobbs. You'll also need to use a trick that lets you cycle backwards through your weapons--if you press and hold A, then tap the Z button, you can cycle through your weapons in reverse order.

Once you're ready, cycle through your weapons until you have two of the second set of weapons ready (For example, in the Archive, have your two Klobbs selected). You'll need to do the following steps fairly quickly:

1. Press and hold the A button.
2. Before you cycle forward, press Z twice.
3. Release the A button.
4. Press A once.
5. Press Z to fire two or three times to fire while the weapons are changing .

If done correctly, firing the weapon will lock one of the weapons on screen in the middle of changing weapons, leaving you with a mixed pair.

If you have the All Weapons Cheat enable, you'll have two of nearly all of your weapons. You can use this trick to get some interesting mixes!

There is a trick which allows you to have doubles or triples of characters in GoldenEye 007's three- and four-player modes. The following example shows you how to have three of the same characters in a four-player game. Once you understand how it works, you can use it in a three-player match, or to have 2 matched pairs of players.

1. Start a four-player match in the multi-player mode, and pick the character you want to "multiply" as Player 4.

2. Pick any other characters for Players 1, 2 and 3.

3. Change the number of Players from 4 to 3, go to the Characters screen again, and select Player 4's character to be Player 3. Pick any characters for Players 1 and 2.

3. Change the number of Players from 3 to 2, go to the Characters screen again, and select Player 4's character to be Player 2. Pick any character for Player 1.

4. Change the number of Players back to 4 and start the game. Players 2, 3 and 4 will be the same character.

This code opens up all of the characters in Multi-Player mode, including 31 that are not available any other way.

This is a long code -- 10 steps -- and may take a few tries to enter properly. You can do this code anywhere, but it's best to do it on the Multi-Player Character Select screen while looking at the last available character (Mishkin or Moonraker Elite). Then:

1. Hold the L and R Buttons and press C-Left (the left C button).
2. Hold the L Button and press C-Up.
3. Hold the L and R Buttons and press Left on the digital Control Pad (NOT the Control Stick).

Note: Doing this will select a different character on-screen. This is supposed to happen.

4. Hold the L Button and press Right on the Control Pad.
5. Hold the R Button and press Down on the Control Pad.
6. Hold the L and R Buttons and press C-Left.
7. Hold the L Button and press C-Up.
8. Hold the L and R Buttons and press Right on the Control Pad.
9. Hold the L and R Buttons and press C-Down.
10. Hold the L Button and press Down on the Control Pad.

No sound is made to indicate the code was successfully entered. If you entered the code correctly, you will be able to select from nearly double the characters you had access to before. Note that this code will open all of the hidden characters, even if you haven't finished the game. One drawback is, your game will not save this code, so you'll have to re-enter it every time you want to use the extra characters.
