See screens, new info from XBLA Perfect Dark

by Justin McElroy on Jun 8th 2009 11:30AM

We made plenty of new video game friends during E3, but, we still care about our old friends for, as the Girl Scouts remind us, one is silver and the other is gold. Why, just today we checked in on the upcoming XBLA version of Perfect Dark and walked away with a ton of new info.

Perhaps most excitingly, the game will include online multiplayer, according to the Xbox.com listing for it. Also, it's being developed by 4J Studios, which you may know from its PS3 ports of Oblivion and Overlord. Finally, we've got a few screens, which appear to indicate the game hasn't gotten too much sprucing up. What do you think?

[Thanks, Lee]

That's actually not true, nothing Rare made under Nintendo is owned by Nintendo, with the exception of Donkey Kong, and any other Nintendo liscences that may be slipping my mind.

Perfect Dark, Jet Froce Jemini, Banjo and even Goldeneye are 100% owned by Microsoft now. Like I said before, the only problem with Goldeneye comes from the Bond liscence, it has nothing to do with Nintendo.

Actually, having read some other links, I understand a bit more than I thought I did and retract my previous post

yep, 2000. awesome summer with this game. i may actually consider picking up a 360, now.

"Also, it's being developed by 4J Studios, which you may know from its PS3 ports of Oblivion and Overlord."

Would have made more sence to reference the fact they ported Rare's other N64 titles Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie, but perhaps that makes too MUCH sense. /:
