Perfect Dark Timeline
From what I heard, after SEVEN YEARS they don’t have ANY kind of vertical slice of gameplay. The “trailer” for the game was in-engine but 100% fake otherwise, there pretty much IS nothing to actually save.
Nature is healing.
I’d rather a new studio try to make a good PD game. Nintendo remade Metroid Prime 4 with a different studio after they cancelled it originally instead of letting it die.
Hehehe. The sun don’t shine in your backyard anymore…
Nah let it die, perfect dark 64 was peak and everything after just made it sad.
I’ve heard the rumours about how the game didn’t have much developed but it’s mostly sad to see it cancelled because it was probably the closest thing to a AAA immersive sim in development. At least that’s the vibe that trailers gave they were aiming for.

Not necessarily true
Perfect Dark was never ever happening.
Is perfect dark really worth this much time and investment?
Between this and Marathon, Adam Jensen’s VO is having a real rough one
The ip went to ass after 64. They should remake 64.
Sad but Microsoft probably plans to cut out all actors in the future and replace them with AI anyway.
Maybe their slop games would be played by AI as well.
Ask the management at the initiative
I don’t understand exactly. Would the actor not be paid for their time regardless?
This game is fucking cursed. People need to give it up. Any dev hired to work on a perfect dark game should immediately begin looking for another job.
Look i get it, but at a certain point you have to wonder whos to blame.
We haven’t heard SHIT about this game since the xbox series got fuckin announced. How did they have nothing to show for this entire time??
If by save it, she means “demand Microsoft release the IP”, sure.
Otherwise… what is there to save? A trailer?
But, but, but, everyone sucked Xbox’s dick after their showcase! They’re awful but no one are brave enough to tell them.
So, Microsoft bought rare thinking they were getting like donkey Kong and goldeneye and everything else.
They literally didn’t get anything except nuts and bolts..
Gamers know fuck all about making games.
Only chance is someone like Kojima or CDPR buying the IP from Microsoft. Either of those would be a great match for this game.
This is sad, Alix Wilton Reagan is a phenomenal voice actress who just did killer work with the Lies of P Overture DLC voicing one of my new favorite characters in gaming. She was insanely excited to play Joanna and it hurts to see we might never get to hear her work because of how long this project has taken and Corpo Microsoft being Corpo Microsoft.
Xbox deserves a LOT of heat for all the layoffs, but I have to be real.
If you’re an exec and you turn up after 7 years and there’s still no meaningful progress to release, that game is getting cancelled right then and there.
The ones at the top deserve blame for being too hands off with studios and cutting thousands of jobs, but sure as shit these studio heads and creative directors etc deserve a ton of blame as well, because they fucked around for multiple years with nothing to show for it. Did they expect a free money tap?
Lol a game 7 years in development by a studio literally made to make that game isn’t getting saved. I can’t imagine how much money was sunk into that. There’s a reason MS killed the game and the whole studio.
When they hurt Elias Toufexis, they hurt me.
