Stolen from gaf

Quote
1080p, 60 FPS remake of the original N64 classic. Character models that were originally 300 polygons now boast 3500, while guns have leapt from 150 polygons to nearer 2000.

- Like the original Perfect Dark, Goldeneye's three best maps – Temple, Facility and Complex are included, but this time out there's a special bonus; Goldeneye's weapon set is also being included, meaning that for all intents and purposes the game has finally made it to Microsoft's console.

- 4 players splitscreen vs 4 players splitscreen over live, 4 player splitscreen offline, Counter OP,and Co-Op both online and offline, 8 players online deathmatch.


- "Multiplayer's also been boosted, with all the game's original modes now playable with eight players online. All the split-screen options are also present and correct, available both online and off. It's more than a recipe for some nostalgic shooting – Perfect Dark's multiplayer is still so compelling that we wouldn't be surprised if it managed to oust some of the bigger guns at the top of Xbox LIVE's most played list."


- "Spartan and Duty Calls" Controller options , "It may not be subtle, but Halo and COD fans will know exactly what to do once the game starts."


- Game is out in March for 800 POINTS/10$ !

MW2 multi is pretty awesome, I don't think it'll ever go out of my rotation until the NEXT ONE. Battlefield is a totally different experience.

fyi, the big thing about Perfect Dark, and to a greater extent, GoldenEye, was that they were the 1st real console FPSs. Nowadays I doubt you'll be able to appreciate the games without the benefit of nostalgia.

The one thing I would like is the option to use the ABXY buttons on the 360 controller for turning, like how the C buttons worked on the N64.  Then I guess the A/B buttons would be mapped to the 360's bumpers which would should be fine.

didn't know that but I did like using the C buttons to strafe since you can peek out of corners faster.  PD and Goldeneye had such insane auto-aim that there's no real need for more than one analog stick.

I'm just saying that they have a dual analog base to work on and they're not just mapping the right analog stick to digital buttons.  It is as responsive as button presses, only with more control.  You can actually try it out on a 360 controller now thought emulation by mapping two N64 controllers on a single 360 controller.  It feels natural compared to trying the same thing with Goldeneye.

Microsoft has revealed dates for its XBLA titles hitting in March, and among them is Perfect Dark landing on March 17.

That’s not all though, MS is handing out an extra 400 MS Points and a month’s worth of Gold membership in celebration.

Toy Soldiers, Scrap Metal, and Game Room also got dates and details. Microsoft is sweetening the deal too, if you get all four, you will be given back 400 MS Points, and a month of Gold membership for free if you are already a member.

Also, March 26-28 will have free online play for all Silver Subscribers.

Read onward.

Toy Soldiers – March 3, 1200 MSP:

    * Your army of antique toy soldiers battles it out across five unique maps, all with multiplayer potential. Deploy infantry, pilot zeppelins and fighter planes, or send in the cavalry…whatever it takes to earn victory in this action-packed strategy game.

Scrap Metal – March 10, 1200 MSP:

    * Use rocket-launchers, flamethrowers and more dastardly tricks to ensure you finish first in more than 60 single-player missions. Or challenge friends to a Destruction Derby plus other superb multiplayer modes in split-screen or across Xbox LIVE.

Perfect Dark – March 17, 800 MSP:

    * The celebrated action adventure from Rare, starring Joanna Dark in her landmark first mission. Newly ‘re-mastered’ in high-definition and upgraded character models, you can play this classic shooter solo, 2-player split-screen or 8-player online.

Game Room – March 24, Free download – 400 MSP dual-platform, 250 MSP single-platform, 40 MSP single play:

    * More than 30 arcade classics in their original cabinets can be yours in your virtual game room. Couch Play mode lets you invite friends for two-player challenges at home, but the fun really takes off across Xbox LIVE with leaderboards to aim for.

To celebrate the beginning of this month-long Xbox Live House Party there, will be a new Avatar Collection featuring exclusive items based on the featured games.

400 MS point return eh? Too bad Toy Soldiers is a lame Battlefield type game or I'd probably go for it. Tentatively interested in Game Room, but I'm not too big on overpriced rom dumps. Scrap Metal looks pretty good too, seems like an uninspired Rock N' Roll Racing.

PD is going to be amazing of course. :rock

Did you buy a couple games from Amazon? IIRC Amazon had Marvel and maybe Trials cheaper than XBLA but the people who bought it from them didn't get the points. I got my 800 back from all the summer XBLA games at least (bought thru the dash).
