Perfect Dark Zero

What? No thread for the game?
-I could not find another thread....

So I've had this for a while now and I'm still not very far. Too much CoD2 I guess.
Co-op seems really fun but my bro and I are only at level 3 so far. Its a lot tougher than I thought it would be. No aiming assist is actually pretty sweet IMO. The game looks better than I was expecting. In 3-4 player mode it looks more like an Xbox game thought. CoD2 owns it here. CoD2 still looks great in the split screen modes. Online actually is a lot of fun. Theres a rather fun Infection mode which inolves some people being skeletons and when they kill a live person they also get turned. This mode is really fun when theres a TON of people playing due to the sheer insanity of large groups of skeletons all hunting in packs after you. The skeletons obviously get weaker weapons but can keep respawing. Its really a hell of a lot of fun. Back to the one player. The story is just average and the voice work is also. But the music I like a lot. Some people hate it but I think it fits the game well. And its different than everything else. If you own a 360 this needs to be checked out.

The objective-based missions are a breath of fresh air after more than 2 years of Halo dominance in my life, but at times it reminds of of why I liked the whole "Shoot first, laugh at them later" mentality. If you do the wrong thing, it's fission mailed, and you have to start all over.

Mission four is the worst example of this. There are 235234 ways to mess up and blow your cover, resulting in mission failure. Levels like the rooftops, though, are brilliant and serves as the game's best example in level design thus far.

This game in 720p is gorgeous. Anyway, single player is fun, although the story and the characters are generally pretty damn stupid. Also, escort missions are never, ever a good time. In spite of this, the weapons and the general feel of the combat never really gets old. Some of the secondary functions on the weapons are wild, and I played through about half way before I even realized some guns had tertiary functions as well.

Also, is there any way to start multiplayer matches without armor?

Is there no auto aim at all? Its a pain in the ass to have to get that small dot exactly on someone. All console FPS games need to have a little and this game having none is kinda frustrating, especially considering you have to unload a full clip on someone online to kill them.

I want to pick it up, but I have too many games to play as it is...

How is the online play???

[Korly]

good.

[Dipstick]

good.

Good enough to pick up over RR6? I'm nearly 100% done with PGR3 and while I'll play it online quite a bit, I want to get something else -- and DoA4 looks like it will not make it out this month. I'm leaning torward this over RR6 just because the thought of playing another racer right now makes me gag a bit.

I think PDZ is really, really, good. I definately think it's worth picking up. I also think RR6 is worth picking up, but like you said, you just played through a racer.

The only reason you wouldn't wanna buy this game is if you have Call of Duty 2 and can do without another FPS.
