Now, you will be shown a brief description of Perfect Dark Zero - a prequel to the original Perfect Dark game.

Joanna Dark returns in the prequel to the multi-award winning first-person shooter Perfect Dark.

A secret war has begun - between shadowy corporations bent on world domination. Joanna Dark and her father Jack are caught up in the fight for the future of the planet. A routine bounty hunting mission rips open a global conspiracy that will change Joanna's destiny - forever.

Perfect Dark Zero is fully online compatible. Play through the story missions and experience multiplayer with more players than ever before on a home console.

Now, assume that Perfect Dark Zero will be released on the next generation Xbox console. How likely would you be to purchase that next generation of Xbox in order to play Perfect Dark Zero?

SURVEY: http://www.psapoll.com/webservice/mrwebpl.dll?project=A9754B

The survey is really picky, the big thread on TeamXbox below lists the correct choices to make in order to be able to continue and see all the choices...

(sorry if this was posted already, i did a search and couldn't find anything.)


This game sounds so great! :D
 
Survey was kinda bare. Edit: oh wait I failed.

I really hope they release (a redone) PD along with this game.

Just the other day I was thinking PD would be the perfect FPS for XBL .

Edit: No matter what i pick, I do not qualify.

Pick France, age 21, yess-only video games, no to advertising, choose xbox and n64, pick very familiar with game

then you will get to questions about perfect dark

Oh what the hell.
 
They should list bots. Assuming it has bots. It better fucking have bots.

Most of that stuff was in the N64 game outside of the online stuff, but it's not like they're going to make bi announcements in a survey. Really looking forward to the game, I just hope Rare can come through on this one.

I wonder what graphic style they're going with now. I quite like the idea of the cellshaded look we briefly saw, but on a new platform it'd be nice to see what Rare can do with just normal graphics.
 
It is asking a lot of questions of Next gen systems....


Please indicate if you think the following statements are true or false. Joanna Dark reminds me of ...

True False
Jennifer Garner's "Sydney" from the TV series Alias
A female version of "Sam Fisher" from the game "SplinterCell"
Nikita from the TV series "La Femme Nikita"
The character "Trinity" from the Matrix
A female James Bond

:o Where can I preorder an Xbox2?
 
I took some printscreens of the survey (the interesting parts anyway) for people who do not want to be bothered... They also ask if you have Xbox Live, what your favorite shooters are etc..

interesting about 'more players online than any other console game'. So does that mean they have some amazing netcode, or MS is paying for lots of servers, or Live2 will lead to bigger multiplayer games?

Thats why it says NEXT generation Xbox console.



Some of this stuff sounds very cool

Especially the inclusion of a lot of online co-op options (play through the single player story and extra missions) and a spectator mode (though i think this is gonna be a pretty standard feature of Xenon live games)


Though its worth pointing out (as no-one else has) that it's just a survey and not a PR statement, its entirely possible that most of the things in that list wont be in the game, and the story could change too
 
You have to wonder why they do these surveys. Like anyone who bothers participating isn't going to want those features or isn't already an Xbox fan.

Are you kidding me? I want to preorder an Xbox 2 now. ME. :lol
 
I hope it uses a similar art style to one of those XNA demos, ha I remember some people thought that was the new Joanna Dark anyway. No fake-anime style please. Kthxbye.

Just remembered, it was called "Film Noir"
 
Say what you will about the single player of Perfect Dark but it's multiplayer and depth of options and customisation were and are still just amazing. A remake with online mode would slaughter most FPS games on the market today. I want a NEW game though. There were some fantastic multiplayer maps in the original that were a bit big for 4 player splitscreen that would work really well online.
 
I would be perfectly happy with a remake.

It would be cool if they could add a port of the original PD as an unlockable or something.
 
Wait, are they serious about her dad being called Jack? Talk about ripping off Alias! :/ Jeez... could've at least changed his name, especially since they had Jonathan Dark in PD1 which Jack, I believe, is short for. :S

Taking survey anyway. :)

Holy crap, I think the high cliche density of that paragraph actually caused my brain to shut down in record time.

Nah, if Sudeki taught us anything it's that if you are going to generic art it's best to keep it within your own culture. Generic style + cultural unfamiliarity = super disaster.

Me too!

I prefer the anime-ish design to the "realistic" version. But whatever look they go with, it does not bother me any. I just want the game!
 
Screw the cheap fake-anime style look! (They'll probably go for that though since it'll be more popular in Japan) I got some pictures of the "XNA look" I was talking about...

With some slight retooling it could look awesome.
 
:eek i just took the survey and i could feel the nastalgia. If Xenon launches with a new perfect dark there is NO WAY i'll be able to pass it up.

Wow, nice! That is a very nice style. It would be interesting to see a PD game like that.

Do you happen to have a link to this video? I have not seen it yet (all I've seen is a scan of the teaser image when people thought it was a Perfect Dark ad).

XNA Film Noir Video

It's a very cool style.
 
I hope they include her sister. What was her name? Velvet Dark? I thought that was pretty clever of them to do that for two player co-op in Perfect Dark.
 
Trying to think what direction they will take PD Zero. I hope they do somthing like Riddick, switching to 3rd person when climbing creates and shimmying on ledges.
 
I guess if anyone is going to one-up PD, it's Rare. The way the company has been going I have my doubts though. I'm going to stay cautious on this project until I hear more concrete information.

Sounds cool to me :) I definitely think they should do things like that to break up the action. I would not mind seeing some stealth elements either if they are done well.

Like maybe to get past a metal detector in a lab you will have to drop your guns and rely on stealth for a little bit or something like that. Could be cool.

Nah, let's keep it pure and simple like GoldenEye. :) Strip it of that secondary-fire thing too. :D
Click to expand...

NO, secondary firing was one of my favorite features. Gave sooo much variety to the already numerous amounts of guns. I would be really pissed at Rare if they dropped the guns secondary features.
 
Make it just like perfect dark. Do not add or subtract anything from the gameplay, and definitely don't change the artstyle.

Perfect dark's gameplay was perfect in every way, the only thing that could have improved the game for me was a better framerate.
 
Perfect Dark gameplay cant stand upto Halo or Half Life 2. It'll feel dated and horrible. Just look at Timespliters, the game absolutly sucks.

They need to change the game and add some major new gameplay. Id like some crazy Half Life 2 physics puzzels implemented into the game, along with Riddick type adventure/stealth. Dual analogue controls like Halo, not twitchy piece of shit timesplitters

Ah Prine, Daily I find myself agreeing with you more and more.

I agree with the dual analogue, since that must be standard in all console FPS, but why make it like HL2 or H2? The first game was absolutely amazing, and an evolution of that gameplay would stand up nicely today.
 
If TimeSplitters Future Perfect makes it to Xbox Live it should be a good demonstration of how well classic console FPS shooting will stand the test of time.
