Video game web site 1UP.com has recently posted a new preview page for the Rare-developed Xbox 360 launch title Perfect Dark Zero, which also yielded some commentary from one of the game's designers regarding Nintendo's new freestyle controller.
Duncan Botwood, lead multiplayer designer for Perfect Dark Zero, discussed the game's history and features, but also fielded questions about Nintendo's next-generation console, code-named Revolution. When asked if he thought Perfect Dark Zero would function as a Revolution title, Botwood responded that "we could make it work, but there'd be some changes to the gameplay, I expect; the controller looks like it might lend itself towards a light gun style of shooting, which would be a fresh approach."
Botwood expressed interest in experiencing the controller for himself, as well as concern about how comfortable it will be to use, but also seemingly put his concerns to rest. "I'm skeptical," he said, "but that's tempered by my respect for Nintendo and my past experience of working with their controllers."
The full preview of Perfect Dark Zero, which also features incites into the game's history as a GameCube and Xbox project, can be found on 1UP.com's web site here.
