jokeripa Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Is it possible that there will be Linux on the 360? That'd make a mean mean fighting machine. https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=432307 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero Updates Coming Rare's letters page revealed some details on updates for both Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero. According to Kameo's lead designer, George Andreas, "Co-op over Live is currently in the last stages of debugging and should be available very soon. And there are firm plans to release more downloadable content soon after - details of which will be made available soon. Watch this space..."A response to another post said, "We do have DLC for both Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero on the way, yes. I can't give exact details because nothing's been announced yet, but I believe it's common knowledge that there'll be more multiplayer maps available for PDZ at the very least." Another response revealed upcoming enhancements to Perfect Dark Zero, "We're making more levels for multiplayer, and we'll be doing a title update to fix some of the annoying issues players have with the game. More news on when exactly that's going to happen will come later on down the line. Clan functionality was supposed to be available from the MGS side, but it didn't make it in for launch."

BroChaos Veteran Posted February 25, 2006 Veteran Share Posted February 25, 2006 awesome news for cod2. i was having trouble getting good pings, so although it was fun, but not as fun as it could have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJC Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 That update sounds great. Some games had terrible lag (999 ping), others were fine. I'm really glad they are adding private games/lobbies too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbiter Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 yeah glad to see the CoD2 update. I hope new content goes up for Amped 3 and Condemned at some point. Do you think they would consider doing extra levels for these games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 Amped 3 i could see updates appearing for it but Condemned i don't think anything will appear for that, maybe if it had a multiplayer then there could be a reason to update it.

CJC Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 amped3 really needs true multiplayer :( Definitely, it's so sad. I've had friends who come over, and I'll load up Amped 3, and they'll say "Oh, let's play split screen!" :cry: I read an interview way back saying that they just didn't have time to add multiplayer/live support before the 360 launch. What a bummer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnast Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 What kind of mulitplayer does Amped 3 currently have? A bud and I thought we were going to play it together when he first opened it, but we couldn't figure out how to actually let 2 people play. The manual made my eyes hurt so we just moved on to the next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magik Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Amped 3 i could see updates appearing for it but Condemned i don't think anything will appear for that, maybe if it had a multiplayer then there could be a reason to update it. I think he meant more content rather than an update to fix issues with gameplay. I could definitely see a few more levels for Condemned being released, not sure about Amped 3, I haven't played it.

oddcrap Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Cleaned up this thread, and added information regarding ^ that update. Please Note: I've cleaned up this thread and decided that monthly updates are better to read than old updates that no one is interested in reading, so from now on only monthly updates will be displayed as soon as they're readily available for download :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
