Perfect Dark Will not be on Xbox!!

I hope the last word and number in that quote is a typo. Since I doubt Rare would jump ship that fast unless MS hit a humongous wall and had to leave the gaming industry.....

It's called a joke .




By the way: IMO, I still think Nintendo was smart to drop Rare. I don't think it was worth it for Nintendo when Rare released a game every two years (yes, exageration, but you get the point). Which, IMO, got worse and worse as the N64's life cycle was ending. Just my opinion though.

I could already tell that it was either a typo or a joke.

And they haven't even started PD0? That's not... like them.

I don't understand how this news could possibly excite a Nintendo fanboy; this doesn't come as bad news to me at all... Imagine if Perfect Dark Zero is a launch title for the next Xbox console (that would be huge). Seems I already have a reason to buy the next Xbox console.

And at least Xbox has some good FPS titles as we speak (only on Xbox), and Halo 2, Unreal II, Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 are all coming to Xbox within the next year... Let's see GameCube or PS2 match that.

That deserves a +Rep

That's pretty much what I said

It excites me because that means more time to make it an even better game. (And I am mainly a Nintendo Fanboy). Since MS wants to keep Halo 2 hype in full force, they hold off with PD until a launch game to get people to purchase the next Xbox, then announce Halo 3 to get more people to buy it and you have many people who will buy it.
