No.Perfect dark was 32 player.And without dedicated servers.

Hmmm, I did not know that. How did it run ? was the lag bad ?

Well if they can get a 360 to host a game that looks this good and run 32 players online with no major problems ,,, Well , I will be even more impressed then I already am with this game.

Thanks for the info Admiral Adama, DESODE

32 players in a dogfight is a bit too much for me. But it could be interesting in the bombing mission in line (6 fighters escorting 10 bombers in "capture the airstrip")
