Control Style

Control style is a style of control of GoldenEye 007 that is found in a number of styles, and is available in many of GoldenEye 007 related titles, including the original, the Wii re-imagining, Reloaded and DS versions. While GoldenEye doesn't allow for full customization of its controls, it does allow the players to chose from eight predefined control styles. The styles change the functions of the control pad, control stick, C buttons, and the controller's six other buttons. In other titles, however, they may change the functions of different buttons.
