Mmm this game will be yummy

Do they usually release at
midnight on the release date?

It should be around 3-4am for you.

A good advantage of living in Aus/NZ/Japan is getting XBLA games at like 7-8pm.

That is if they release them there $:-\$

Lol thanks, can only get the trial though. Better than nothing.

wow, i'm total shit at this. I keep playing it like, OMG STEALTH, but you can just blaze through and cap everyone

this game is so good. auto-aim is a must. it's -way- too loose if you try it manually.

bork · « **Reply #77 on:** March 17, 2010, 07:06:48 AM »

I couldn't get the full game either, then after about 10 minutes it let me purchase the full version.

Tried an online match with eight people; it was pretty difficult. I forgot that you don't start out with weapons, and if you spawn away from them, you're kind of fucked.

The warehouse level also seemed too big for its own good.

Does anyone know how long it takes Amazon to carry new XBLA games? I really don't want to buy a $20 card, but I noticed Amazon isn't even carrying more recent stuff like Toy Soldiers. :'(

Thanks for the reminder. I was sorta wary of adding my debit card due to the fact that the last time I did that I couldn't remove it until my gold account expired, and I didn't want my card to be active until 2013, lol. But since I used prepaid codes, I was able to add points and remove my debit card with no problem.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #87 on:** March 17, 2010, 12:27:27 PM »

Looks pretty good. Better than I expected.

The fine aim thing is a bit of a mess. A holdover from that N64 controller. It's kind of funny how you can turn off the auto-aim in multiplayer but you'd probably be at a major disadvantage if you did since its an individual option rather than a pure game setting I think.

It's a good port. Not a perfect one. Some hitching in the MP for example. But I like it.

my first time ever playing perfect dark, started on agent and it was ridiculously easy. perfect agent isn't that bad, sometimes i have to check the mission briefing to figure out the objectives. only played the first mission so far though.

OK, so you stumbled on the most important tip for single-player; always read the mission briefing beforehand. Also, try out the Carrington Institute to test out all the weapons and their secondary fire modes. The guns that lock-on in particular are super handy for picking off enemies in a crowded room while running around.

Yeah, the hardest part about the game is how much game design has changed to teach you how to play a game in the modern era. Whenever you play something that goes back a decade or so, that goes beyond a simple arcade game, the teaching you how to play aspect is almost completely gone.

The lag is really bad right now. $:-\$ I've only played one lag free game and I'm going to assume it is because I was the host.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #93 on:** March 17, 2010, 04:07:35 PM »

I played a couple of games and the lag wasn't that bad in those games I played but maybe I was just lucky. The GAF thread has a lot of people saying the lag makes it unplayable though so there are a lot of people saying the lag is pretty bad.

When I unlocked the gamer pic during an MP it froze up for like 5 seconds and I thought the game had crashed. lol.

Wario64 · « **Reply #94 on:** March 17, 2010, 04:09:05 PM »

i've only played 2 multiplayer games so far and i didn't have any lag problems.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #96 on:** March 17, 2010, 05:48:51 PM »

The actions are so different in this game from halo or cod that i dont see the point of changing the controls.

Trying to remember these buttfuck objectives is definitely a challenge.

YES, AND IT ROCKS

You can even do split-screen so you can see what you're friend is doing like a local co-op game. It's weird but amazingly cool to coordinate attacks and to instantly see if needs help or not while you work on different objectives.

Aside from how quickly you die if you manage to get shot, Perfect Agent is easier than peeing.

sweet bought this. Seems like a steal at 800pts.

Graphics are good! Goldeneye would actually be great if they updated it like this.

Tried playing on Perfect Agent... enemies were fine but I was stuffing up objectives hard

I had had a bit to drink so couldnt be bothered reading the briefing screen

Maybe I should play through the game on easy so I know where the objectives are and stuff.

The objectives change depending on your difficulty. So does some other stuff that I don't remember. Just read the mission briefing and you should be fine.
