Ehh, I primarily play fps on pc so I don't really share that problem. Are you seriously hyped for these graphics? I suppose its rad that they aren't just stretching the 4:3 image and giving fans something to get excited about.

Well sir, I'm glad they are making your day with this port job then. Quake is like that for me. Since buying the iD super pack, I play a ton of my old favourite fps games way more than I ever would.

Reliving one of your childhood teengae days best game experiences in noticebale 60fps goodness in HD and surround sound is reason enough to get uber fuckin stoked. Have any idea how smooth this game will run on a 120hz HD television? :lol It's pretty exciting.
Even if this game is still 2 generations behind the norm the playing experience it gives is certainly not old in the slightest.

I also like the new redesigned Joanna. SHe looks a helluva lot better than that cartoony trite they put in PDZ. She looks more lifelike now. Like they rendered her from a real life person.

I need this game NOW, why do we have to wait until winter? 
While I am not completely sold on the enemy model everything else looks pretty decent. I pray everything from the original is kept in tack as far as being able to shoot enemy guns out of their hands or them performing karate moves in close quarter situations.
By the way I've been playing the game for years now and this was the first time I've noticed the pattern on the ceiling in the villa level. On related note, anyone ever as bored as me and shoot all the class bottles before rescuing Daniel only for him to quip something about "acting your own age"? :lol

I will play the shit out of this game. I still pop in PD64 and play it from time to time.
I can see me playing this for years.

I'm very excited for this. I've never actually played PD before. As a kid, I wasn't aware that this was essentially Goldeneye 2, and now the game is pretty unplayable control-wise. Totally looking forward to playing this with usable controls and solid frame rate.
So many good games this Christmas...and I just know that I won't play any of them because I'll be stuck on Perfect Dark for days at a time. Again. This is going to be brilliant and there's other way to say it. If this game has online co-op/counter-op/multiplayer then it's goodbye social life for the next six months

It's so impressive how awesome this game still looks! I mean the reload animations, particle effects, level design etc. It really plays like a modern fps and (as many people said) still has countless features missing from totday's games.whitehawk said:

Love it. So many memories from the multiplayer maps.
I actually hope the message area in the lower left is tweaked. It's too slow and should have multiple lines like modern FPS.

Microsoft going out of their way to do things like this for their fanbase is a major reason why I own a 360. This is freaking awesome!

Is this a premium theme? Do they still make non-premium themes even though the NXE destroys them?
Sorry for the delay guys, I've been quite busy yesterday =/
Anyway, here's a video of Perfect Dark's solo campaign running on emulator at 60fps.
Vimeo seems very choppy for me, maybe it's my Pc. You can download the full video for better resolution/framerate.

- Megaupload
Some screens for comparison:
Carrington Villa - dataDyne Research - Carrington Institute - Pelagic II

Quoted for the great effort!
Unfortunately it seems the morphing effect seems glitchy or not exactly how it was on the N64. Still the game looks very nice still given it's age and the hardware it was released on.
Seeing a gun blasted out of a guards hand and watching him scuttle back and being it back up, is something very few FPS have even today!
i'm really looking forward to this one. i almost kept my n64 around solely so i could continue to play this, but went back to it will into last generation and found that the awful frame-rate was severely hindering my enjoyment of what was otherwise a fantastic game.
this may well be the first game download i purchase.

Yeah, the emulation is not perfect (very old build of 1964), but it gets the job done very well. Didn't noticed the shield glitch, we only play with "one hit kill" in MP (sentinels not allowed).
Talking about glitches, I wonder if they are going to fix that glitch that lets you finish the first stage in like 10 seconds.
Also, Rare is now on twitter. I'll check it often hoping to see any new info on PD (or project Bean I hope ;P )
