You want to point to either the poor quality of the 360's launch lineup or the decline in standards at Rare, and you point to two games: Perfect Dark Zero and Kameo.

1Up s Che Chou has been playing Perfect Dark Zero for hours now and despite its high production values and electrifying play, was kind enough to jump off the game occasional to write up quick impressions. Last time I checked he had posted 20 minute, 1 hour and 3 hour updates. His bottom line seems to be that PDZ is amazing online and only marginally less so in the offline single player version. More »

Designer Duncan Botwood said, "We could make it work, but there'd be some changes to the gameplay, I expect; the controller looks like it might lend itself towards a light gun style of shooting, which would be a fresh approach."

One of our readers scored some Xbox 360 software and says that on the back of each box, there is info regarding what the game supports. Project Gotham Racing 3 will support content downloads, but according to the box, Perfect Dark Zero apparently won't. I checked the Xbox site, which does hint at add-on content, but our reader swears otherwise. Unless this is preliminary art, we won't be downloading any maps and hot outfits for Joanna come November.

Games Radar reports on Edge's visit to Rare HQ and the time they spent getting to know Joanna Dark from Microsoft's big day one title Perfect Dark Zero. Edge talks to Rare about the deep multiplayer game (which will host 32 players), co-op Live support and the Rating system. It'd be nice if someone would ask Rare why in half of the screenshots for Perfect Dark Zero the game looks like garbage and in the other half it looks glorious. Inquiring minds want to know. More »
