GoldenEye 007 was released by Rare for the Nintendo 64 in 1997, following the James Bond film of the same name, and became one of the console's defining multiplayer shooters. Short clips from the game have circulated for years on soundboards, streaming chats and video edits, where players use them as shorthand for stealth, action and nineties gaming nostalgia. Because the sound is so brief, it fits easily into memes and reaction content, and it remains popular with creators who want an instantly recognisable cue without a long musical excerpt.
