According to one of the most recognizable people in the gaming world, Major Nelson, the Nintendo 64 classic Perfect Dark will be making its way to Xbox Live Arcade later this winter. Even though nothing was mentioned during the Microsoft press conference, dashing the hopes and predictions of one young blogger (me), it appears that the Rare developed game will be making an appearance on the console later this year. Here's what Major had to say on his twitter.

In the booth. Just saw Perfect Dark on XBLA running 1080p. It is coming to XBLA this winter. Free theme coming tomorrow!

Well then, I guess that means yet another of my E3 predictions came true. Even the wild guess that there was going to be a dashboard theme based on the game. Not only am I happy that I was right, and that so far I managed to out-predict my fellow Gamervision staffers, but I'm thrilled at the idea of getting to play one of my favorite games of all time with all my old friends online.

Be sure to check back and see if Coop and Sarah get a chance to look at the game while they're at E3.
