After seeing screenshots or video of the Xbox Live Arcade version of Perfect Dark, you may not have been blown away. Coming just weeks after the release of the gorgeous Battlefield: Bad Company 2, not to mention the myriad of other great-looking FPS games that have been released in recent years, it’s easy to be underwhelmed. You might even think that it hasn’t been updated much from the N64 version — but if that’s what you’ve been thinking, you clearly haven’t taken a look at N64 game in a while.
The video above shows some footage of the opening cinematic and part of the first level in both the N64 and XBLA versions of Perfect Dark. It doesn’t take long to see that Rare has clearly polished up the graphics quite a bit since the game’s release back in 2000, although it looks like the AI still leaves something to be desired. You’d think the guards would have more of a reaction when they see a woman waltzing around with a gun in her hand.
Perfect Dark releases on the Xbox Live Marketplace next Wednesday, March 17, for 800 Microsoft Points ($10).

StarCraft 2 beta is set to start in the next 13 days, and the hype engine has been revving overtime again. StarCraft: IncGamers’ columnist and StarCraft 2 fan J H Zimmer takes a further look into why himself and others want this particular game so badly.
"We want it. We need it. But, why? Yes, the game is covered by Blizzard’s magic touch. Yes, the graphics are beautiful to behold. Yes, it is the sequel to the best RTS of all time. Starcraft 2 is all these things, and yet it transcends them. What is it about this game that makes us read tea leaves, promise our souls to the darkness, and stalk developers for just one more hint at when we can finally play it?"
There is the proof (screenshot), that Fable 3 graphics inferior comparable of PlayStation 2 and GameCube games.
