These quotes are taken from IGN.

"It's a shame that this game is getting pushed out at launch when it clearly could have used more time polishing and tuning."

"I've been most impressed by the co-op mode"

"My only qualm so far is that the second level requires a certain amount of stealth, yet there is really no stealth engine to speak of."

"go to a cutscene and suddenly there is texture pop-in and frame drops. W + T + F?"

"What do I really think so far? PDZ is good so far, but it's not hammering in the next generation in a striking new fashion."


Jeremys Cliffs: The game did not live up to the hype. :(

I agree. Early on, I was going to get PDZ and maybe PGR3 later. But based on what I have seen, it might just be the other way around. I need my FPS fix for the 360, but CoD2 only has 8 people online. I'll wait until I see a full review before I make a descision.

Overestimated mabye. Crap no. It will probably be in the top3 release games. In no way is this game crap...

Who said it's crap? They said it wasn't perfect, that it could've used more time.

This kind of frusterates me....because it's the only launch game that I am likely going to buy. I mean, nearly $500 later (after taxes, etc) by getting the system and the game...and likely a second controller (could be more than $500), I really don't want this game to blow ass.

Oh well...atleast I can play Halo in high res...

My folks purchased Moto GP3 for my birthday...so, I guess I can screw around with that for a while.

What frusterates me most is that Microsoft has made sure this game has stayed out of the lime light until last second. That kinda worries me...

ok before we all jump to conclusions. What ninjermy posted was pretty much just the bad comments for the game. If you all actually go to IGN.com and look at the article for the game, you'd see that there are a ton more good comments than bad ones.

F*** Ign. I've actually played Perfect Dark Zero and absolutely loved it. Even though it was an older, unfinished build, it was still awesome. Take it from a gamer, not a publication: Perfect Dark Zero has lived up to the hype (and then some). This game will dominate Xbox Live. It's one of the greatest games I've ever played.

Christ you guys are hard to please... wanting like the perfect game. Launch games are always rushed and sloppy due to time restraints, doesn't make them bad.

today there is no such thing as first wave of games, things are rushed out and so...
this is because today programs *Maya, and so..* give the programers *(designers..) to see what a system can do from day one, SO what you see today is what you will get in the following years...

you can see that very well in the current Xbox, nothing changed much since the launch games..

Truth is there is no guarantee that games later in the lifecycle of a console will be any better than a launch game. Look at some of the absolute crap coming out lately for the ole Xbox. Hard to believe after 4 years of time spent with the hw these devs haven't improved on what came out day one. But I am hoping Gears of War will change all of that on this system. Please dear God don't let Gears of War be another Brute Force.

I played perfect dark today and i loved it. The only problem i have with it is the look sensitivity on it. It moves much slower then halo. But gameplay wise i got through the 3rd level and it was so much fun. Multiplayer will be the biggest seller though. I got the limited edition. This and PGR3 are probably the best games I've played for it. Madden looked good too. Got 4 of my retail games so far.

Did you try and change it in the control settings?

One of the reviews I read stated that before you play the game, it's best to change your sensitivity from 50% to a minimum of 75%... I'll probably put mine to about 80%...that's my guess.

i had it at 75 yesterday and it was still way to slow. I had it cranked all the way to a 100 today and i like it much better. We were mainly playing multiplayer matches today with 14 bots. It was nice. The boards are insanely detailed. The temple one looks very nice.

Well, I own the game now and a second controller...So, I really hope PD0 is going to be kick ass...

It's spelled "numb" you douche. Man, I've had it with all these newbs polluting the forums and ripping on decorated XBA members....learn to spell you morons, or learn not to insult people. :bang:


Perfect Dark Zero has yet to even be released, and he didn't say anything particularly bad about the game, he simply said it wasn't quite finished. I figured as much, but that doesn't mean it'll be a bad game, and he hasn't even touched on the XBL features....so everyone chill.
