The Much loved N64 game Perfect Dark is due to touch down on the X-box sometime in the near future.


And if The N64 version is anything to go by then This version ought to be a "Rare Treat". *Cough* Exuse The Pun.


Perfgect Dark is just one of those games whether you either love it to bits or you hate it's dusty circuits.

Perfect Dark Is a game which was originally developed by RareWare and considered by most to be the most thrilling shoot em up game ever.


Perfect Dark had a rather Unique First person veiw to the N64.
The reason being that not many shoot em ups on the N64 have a first person veiw.

The main talking point of Perfect Dark was that It had high quality Graphics and very addictive gameplay.
Even though you needed a Memory Exspansion pak in order to play Perfect Dark to it's full Capapilities it was still a fantastic game.
one thing that was carried from Goldeneye to PD was the Difficulty level Idea.
Which has always worked out well for me.
PD also had an easy to navigate pause menu.
It saves a lot a grief and a lot of scrolling through weapons.
Perfect Dark on the N64 was by far the best Game on the N64.


But now times are changing and we must move on with technology.
And so brings Perfect Dark to the X-box.

I think that by bringing PD to the X-box will give a huge booost to X-box sales.
Why?
Because of Perfect Darks popularity and past sucsess.
But it may result in many Ninty fans turning to the "Dark Side Of The Force" but that's unlikely.

We don't know if PD on the X-box will be any good or not but when it arrives we're sure to find out.So Ninty Fans hold on tight cos we're in for one hell of a ride.

Ah... just think it you lucky young gamers of Microsoft... you'll get the cutsie version of conker... eurrrggghhh! Anyway... Rare have fallen out with Nintendo... and to show their anger... *impression* Ohhh I'm soo angry ... we'll go multiformat!... For god's sake they don't hand out very good punishments do they!

This turn of events has made me think has Ninty lost It's best games producer to multi formatting... no more exclusives... will any one else shine through!

What? another re-release..!

Yes it has a few decent titles of its own, notably Halo but nothing more than a few.

Why don't Microoft start developing something different than re-release everything from PC, Sony, Nintendo?

No mention of PD!

But there is some good games in development such as the top seceret Blinx,
And Tony Hawks Four,

And Star Wars Knights of the Republic.

Which looks awesome

Its a load of bollards, I can't beleive that X BOx mag where stupid enough to put a rumour on their front page. Dogs Nuts please ignore it, it's just a rumour and there's been no announcments to back it up.
