New Perfect Dark content

Bots and bug-fixes.

Microsoft's released the first round of downloadable content for Perfect Dark Zero - although fans will have to wait a bit longer for those promised premium maps.

For now we've got new bots - available in DarkOps multiplayer games as well as deathmatch, and split into various new AI flavours, outlined in our previous item.

Meanwhile Microsoft and developer Rare have also sprung a few welcome bug-fixes, preventing people floating through the air, repeatedly capturing flags, receiving positive points for team-killing and going out of bounds on the Desert map, as well as sorting out some ranked-game balance issues, getting melee kills to register properly and making sure achievements unlock when they're meant to.

It's also sorted out some crash bugs, which is handy. Expect more from the Perfect Dark Zero team in the next few months.
