[Saffy]

Supposedly Perfect Dark will be out shortly for the Xbox Live Arcade :D I am definitely looking forward to this remake. They seem to have upgraded the graphics and added online multiplayer.

How much is it? Because it better be worth as much as all the other Serious Sam Remake HD's:

10 bucks or less.

But can you play it with an N64 controller?

[Poopkeeper]

Are you implying that the N64 controller is superior to Xbox 360's controller or was that just a nostalgia statement?

[Guitar Smasher]

I mean that I had a level of control in that game that I have not achieved since, with a dual analog setup.

If I were to buy this game (I don't have a 360 and don't ever plan to buy one), I'd be excited if the slowdown/framerate issues were improved. Other than that, the original was pretty much flawless.

[Saffy]

I hear the game runs at a steady 60 frames per second. What slowdown are you referring?

[Guitar Smasher]

Well the game was pushing the N64, even with the expansion pack. In single player missions whenever there were explosions or even just a few machine guns, the game slowed right down. Multiplayer allowed for 4 players and up to 8 bots; maxing it out would slow it to probably below 10 frames per second (I'm just guessing from memory).

I'd get this if it were for Wii, really need a good first person shooter with strong multiplayer. This game was classic.

I remember this game! Soooo long ago. My brother borrowed it from someone, I think. All I remember is the name and that the cartridge was dark with a girl on it. I loved shooting games a lot back then. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

If anyone cares the game came out to buy for $10 yesterday. Great purchase!

I haven't gotten to play myself, but I watched my friend and was quite impressed. We were going to do some multiplayer but I ended up falling asleep :p

[Guitar Smasher]

I hear there's no option for classic controls. Now I don't have a 360 to play this on, but now I have no desire to get one.

[Saffy]

They made great efforts to make the controls feel much like the old controls. They've also added controller options that are similar to Halo and Call of Duty.

I remember when a group of us would go to our friend's house after school to play this game. Good times

They made great efforts to make the controls feel much like the old controls. They've also added controller options that are similar to Halo and Call of Duty.

Doesn't matter if I can't strafe-sprint. Again, I don't know the actual control options, I've just been told that the classic controls are not an option.

Perfect Dark will only be good on the N64.
Elvis the Alien in multiplayer FTW<3
