I predict that PDZ will be used to promote Xbox Live.

RE4 and Twilight Princess will ensure that doesn't happen
Gotta love it. Circle-jerk!
After Microsoft not giving it a show and every other credible big source says it kicks arse, you really really really have to wonder WTF happened. Until that is ratified, Perfect Dark Zero is a lost cause.
At least the most plausible GOTY was shown at E3 regardless of how it played.

Well, none of those features are new to FPS. Not than FPS has to have something new to be GOTY, just pointing it out. Also, there is still the question of the games release. I DOUBT that PDZ will launch this year, as much as I wish it did. Also, I dont think spore is launching this year.

xboxcowboy makes a good case plus I think the game will look really sweet come launch. 65 players simultaneous online with all those features. Not saying that it will be goty but he makes a good case.

I personally prefer 2vs2 match types, more intense, less insta-deaths. 50+ players is going to be rediculous (both good and bad). Ah well, it's a good thing the levels change depending on the number of players, very smart design on Rare's part.

I agree. Personally, I don't mind 6 maps simply because the sheer size of each map, there will be lots of variety in terms of combat situations (sniping locations, close combat, lots of space for vehicles etc. etc..)
But putting that aside, 6 maps has not been confirmed as the final map count for PDZ so I'll wait for official word on that.
LRGaf said:
What if there's variety within the larger maps?
We've seen the subway station; maybe that's just a small section of a larger city map where you can fight it out on the streets or up on rooftops and you can choose what section you want to limit the game to in smaller matches.

For a direct comparison I seriously doubt it'll top Battlefield 2 (PC) in most, if any of these categories. Let alone other genres that have or will have AAA titles representing them by the end of the year. But Id love to be surprised.
I don't care how big the maps are, 6 is too small a number. I like playing smaller games (4v4) in Halo and the smaller maps are the best. Big maps in FPS = annoying.
if there's only 6 maps, they better scale down when less people are playing. Not a big deal.
Bots leave automatically in UT2K4, iirc, and I'm sure other games do that too. What's the big deal?
And I'd rather have a jump button then constantly switching in and out of third person.

Huh? The maps do scale depending on the number of players; that's been stressed in just about every preview so far.

to bitch about the graphics is one thing, but to bitch about "only" 6 maps when you havent even played it is bad form.
by the time you get done with the single player, multiplayer co-op, and get tired of the 6 huge maps i'm pretty sure a little thing called DLC will be waiting in the wings.
Anyone who thinks this game will make 2005 for release just doesn't know Rare. I had hopes, but after seeing the POS they showed a few weeks ago, there is simply no way that this game makes launch. I think it makes the launch "window" with a Spring of next year release.
This is Rare we are talking about. Anyone who swallowed the tripe of two Rare games being ready at launch is just an idiot... :lol :lol :lol

To be fair though, i have rarely read preview "impressions" that were not overwhelmingly positive for almost any game. It's the nature of previews.
But i don't think anyone can go down the list of features that PD0 will have and not come away with the impression that Rare is going out of their way to try and make the game the new standard as far as FPS are concerned.
I just hope to god that MS doesn't force Rare to make the "live mp" part of the game the most important. While i love a good online game as much as the next, it's the single player that i am most interested in and will make or break the game (imo).
