Confirming earlier rumors, Major Nelson's Twitter page has revealed the Rare-developed N64 hit Perfect Dark will in fact be landing on the Xbox Live Arcade this winter. No details were given beyond that it will run in 1080p... but expect the usual XBLA enhancement such as online play and leaderboards. Hoo-rah! Mums the word on the also-rumored Perfect Dark 2, though.
In other XBLA news, Microsoft is bringing back its Summer of Arcade promotion following the immense success of last year's edition. While the 2009 Summer of Arcade may not be as mind-blowing as the first, it sure does pack a punch. Check out the lineup below, in no particular order:
-Marvel vs. Capcom 2
-Shadow Complex
-'Splosion Man
-TMNT: Turtles in Time RE-SHELLED
-The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition
-Trials HD
Not included in the promotion (and therefore likely hitting in the June or July) are notable prospects Joy Ride and Battlefield 1943. Also, check out the LIVE Marketplace tomorrow for a free Perfect Dark theme.
