So, anybody getting this? I am because the game has fantastic split-screen multiplayer (with bots), plus it now even has online multiplayer if I want to play it. My Xbox sorely needs something like PD that can be used as a party game. Otherwise it just collects dust. Plus co-op, counter-op, 1-4 player challenges, and the singleplayer mode. All at an N64 stomping 60FPS.



Out on Wed for 800MSP.

A classic game, an amazing game, a game that deserves to be recreated/restored and sold on a next-generation market place... for only 800 MSP!!!? Why, that's a FULL game capable of competing with today's games, being sold cheaper than a particular shitty mappack for an overrated game!

PDZ sucked a bit. Have a copy lying about here. Have expressed much love for PD before on here. Was a big part of my memories of birthday parties with friends as a young bloke. The days of innocence, before chicks and alcohol.



Btw the N64 did have a game that ran at 60fps, ALL. THE. TIME.

Yes they do. And it's the 2nd worst part of the Xbox. The worst of course being Xbox Live Gold.

I am getting this as soon as its released

I dont care that I own it for the N64 and paid the full price for it back in the day, along with the expansion-pack to access the full game. Its the best damn game Ive ever played, and will keep me tied down until Gears 3 next year.

Here's an explainatory walkthrough from the man himself, Ken Lobb. Spoiler (highlight to read):

Basically, it has 3 control settings. A default setting thats identical to the original, a Call of Duty style control setting, and a Halo style control setting.

Well i've been playing it all afternoon. Done a few missions, a few challenges, and a combat simulator game in Temple with KF7 Soviets and Klobbs.

The default controls actually arent identical to the old game at all. It uses the standard dual analogue setup, and has some nice additions due to the extra buttons. Changing weapon firing mode can be done by hitting RB (its far quicker now ), the weapon selection wheel thing is LB. Crouching is handled by clicking the left stick. Next weapon is Y weirdly enough, and B is previous weapon. I keep getting confused because of that. A is interact with things. The Back button can be used to bring up the mission objectives.

And its smooooooooth.

It was nearly released on XBLA years ago, but Microsoft and Nintendo couldnt agree on profits. Or something stupid like that. Rare say its never going to happen now.

Actually, they are very similar. I mean, you can still press the bottom left two buttons to detonate remote mines

I was in the top 4 on the leaderboards for times on Duel, but thats probably knocked down now. I know how good this game is, but I forgot just HOW fucking good this game is.
Even had 3way split screen last night, a first on XBox. Nostalgia really hit home, especially seeing as it was with 2 friends who I used to play the game with all them years ago

One thing that is bothering me is the achievement "Tools of the Trade". Basically, it hasn't unlocked for me. On the shooting range I have 32 weapons listed, and I have Gold in all but one, which is silver. But no achievement for 32 bronzes. So i'm sad .

I'm playing through on Special Agent just now. Got nobody to play multiplayer with at the moment .

If I were to ever bother with xbox live it would be for this.
