counter-op on xbox live :hyper

1080P 60 FPS OMG
-
That's pretty cool! Wish the multi was changed to up to 8-12 players; couldn't you have up to eight bots running around with you in versus on N64?

I'd be surprised if bots weren't included in online multiplayer.
-
No way this will be 60fps
-
It's Xbox Live and at a playable frame rate; this is going to be awesome. I'll probably play this as my main online game for a while.

This is the best gaming news I've heard so far this year. :heartbeat

Why the fuck not?

It will make for a fun novelty/nostalgia trip, but no way does this game hold up against other online FPS games.

As weird as it will sound, I think the fact that it's an old shooter without much depth and cool weapons to fuck around with will be why I would play it. I mean, maybe the nostalgia thing will wear off, but it will be a change of pace to go back to two guys circling each other in a room...only with an acceptable frame rate now.

I would like more than 4 players but this is awesome news.

Never did finish Perfect Dark. I think I quit right after the level where you link up with the alien.
-
Why did they change the way Joanna looks on this one ? :/

Because BK and BT aren't, and they were ported by the same studio

this game features a hawaiian-shirt wearing alien named elvis

Do they at least have steady framerates? Perfect Dark's biggest problem was the framerate dropped like crazy in multiplayer with bots and a bunch of explosive weapons.
-
Yea, I would expect a rock-solid 30fps.
-
Perfect Dark with a playable framerate sounds like it might be worth my spacebucks.
-
Perfect Dark > Goldeneye and you people KNOW IT.

that's my slime :wub

I'm going to lose a contact from yessing too hard
-
Any word on when?
Hasn't it always been slated for a Winter 2009 (ie. December) release? At least that's what I've always thought.
I'd kill to have it sooner though.

Who? If you're open to suggestions, I can provide a list of names.
-
I'd like to limit myself to people who trash Rare and/or people who think Nuts & Bolts sucked.
-
Why anyone would play a FPS online with only 4 people is beyond me.
-
Who says it'll only be four people?

It's better then they've done in recent years.

Banjo Nuts and Bolts is one of their best games, and I'm not really a fan of Rare.
-
It supported 4 players and like 12 bots, didn't it? The site says 4 players in green which usually means offline multiplayer, but it doesn't have a number for online multiplayer.
-
After playing it recently the game still holds up pretty well. It'll be great to finally enjoy this game with a framerate that isn't abysmal. I hope they release it soon, co-op is worth the purchase alone.
Who says it'll only be four people?
Well the original only supported four players and this seems like a slightly enhanced port with no gameplay extras. Who knows, maybe they'll increase it but currently the website only says 4 players.
I'd rather see Jet Force Gemini released so I can play it with something high than a framerate of 12fps.
-
Between this, Serious Sam HD and Quake 3 Arena, XBLA is the place to go for your retro FPS needs.

some new shots:

Eh, it's an improvement, but it still looks like a PS2 game. Hopefully the game runs at 60 fps. Anything less would be inexcusable.
-
I wish they would announce a release date already.
-
These shots really put in prospective how far we've come.

Still looks better than KZ2.

yeah, at least Perfect Dark will retain it's online community and have more credibility than its good graphics.
Kinda pissed this game is getting the Rare treatment though...taking fucking forever to come out and they're just leaking one pic at a time.
-

Major Nelson said on his Twitter that it is months away.

I haven't heard of the site before but rarewitchproject seems to have access to some other screens, here is a banner they have that shows Joanna in a different pose.
(http://www.rarewitchproject.com/images/feature/pdxbla-screens.jpg)
They had the achievement list too, but it was taken down along with the exclusive screens. Not before people saved them, though. :)

15 achievements? Strange.
Regardless it'll be FPS of the year whenever it comes out.
-
I just really want to play Chicago.
-
Those achievements suck. Not one for beating it on Perfect Agent?
-
Please be 60fps and 1080p
-
I wonder how they decided on how crappy to make the new graphics. I mean, it's obviously a step up, but still not near current-gen quality. PS2-ish is right.
-
It doesnt even look as good as RF1.
-
it's an xbla game, why would it have full production values?

none of which are up ports of N64 games.

indeed
-
I was never over-the-moon about the game but it might be nice to play without the shitfest framerate.
-
That really sucks that it's months away. They keep releasing an image every 6 months just to remind us they're working on it. I'm sure Rare's resources are all on Natal at the moment ::)
-
I'm beginning to wonder if they'll let this one slip all the way until next year's Xbox Live Summer of Arcade.
-
It's not rare that's working on it. It's 4j studios or whatever
-

That explains the crappy character redesign for Joanna.

It's not like Rare knocked it out of the park themselves in that department with Perfect Dark Zero.
-
I thought this got canceled a while ago? Or am I thinking of some other Rare port that was trashed?

You must be thinking of something else.

Goldeneye
-
Yeah, never mind, it was GoldenEye that they shitbinned. (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3165391) I'd be much more giddy at that prospect of that nostalgiafest than this one, but Perfect Dark was pretty alright too, so whatever
-
What is Rare doing these days anyway?

Natal stuff.
-
Yeah, they used to make shit full retail games for the N64 and Xbox. What a decline.

Still looks pretty bad. :lol
Good to know that it'll be available February, I guess.
-
meh. I don't really get complaints about graphics for an up ported N64 game (A system that launched in 1996). It's like complaining about the graphics in the XBLA version of Doom or something.
It clearly looks better than what came before it and the frame rate won't be in the single digits like most people experienced it on the N64.
-
Sorry, in a day and age where this will no doubt cost between $15 to $20, I expect better than a simple port!

Then you expect too much. But then that is your prerogative.
-
How do I expect too much. Most of the first XBLA titles and simple ports were just $5 to $10. And at that price point, I think that's fine. But when you talk about $15 and $20, I want more than a port.

It's no different than Banjo 1 & 2. Which were done by the same company and with the same process. I have no issue with you personally saying Perfect Dark isn't worth your $15 bucks. For the people this is targeted at, I simply don't think they share that opinion. Of course the sales will end up showing who was right or wrong.

Blast Corps and Banjo Kazooie > anything this gen kthx
Not really, but what of their N64 lineup was shitty?
-
Jet Force Gemini
-
Hell yeah. Why are they wasting their time with this when JFG was clearly superior?
-
Yuck
-
Shootin giant ants.
Collectin ewoks.
JFG
:rock :rock :rock :rock
-
I never played all the way through, but I thought it was awesome when I rented it. Then again, I was probably only 11 or 12, so hey
-
JFG is the best thing Rare ever made (along with Blast Corps and Snake Rattle 'n' Roll).
-
JFG rocks.
-
Blast Corps >>>>> JFG
-
I didn't care for Blast Corps or JFG :(

online details are 8 player versus matchmaking, 2 player co-op, 2 player counter-op (all online)
game also has three control schemes. One original to Perfect Dark XBLA, one modeled after CoD4, and one modeled after Halo 3. more info: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=364290&page=21

Wish I could have seen the video. :'(
-
Cool I dont care about this crap. Release Date please?

The sooner a date is announced the sooner I can get my erection going, man. I mean right now I'm in full chub you know? But I need the real deal.
