    I noticed some familiar faces while playing Perfect Dark on the XBLA today so I recorded this video to show my fellow Giant Bombers. I think the guy that we said was from Roseanne was actually the guy from According to Jim. I get my shitty sitcoms mixed up sometimes.

    Is the guy w/ sunglasses John C. Riley from Talladega Nights? That's my best guess.

    @ImmortalSaiyan:
    Yup, maybe I'll find some more lookalikes when I get further. I believe that in the original version on N64 a lot of the bad guys were actually the scanned faces of some Rare employees, maybe they did this again for the remake but instead they scanned Tony Hawk's face.

    Some of those are kind of a stretch. The Peter Molyneux was pretty creepy though.

    I think most if not all of those were most likely coincidences, however these lookalikes are at least interesting. That guy did look quite a lot like Peter Molyneux... "Muh balls".

    Lionhead is right across from Rare.  They face scanned some of the employee's there, just like they did for the original game.  So yes, that is infact Peter Molyneux.
    No idea about the rest of them though, I'd assume they're all just Lionhead and Rare guys.

    Not true. The dudes who ported it have said in interviews to wach out for famous faces in the game. Maybe not all the ones in that video were intentional, but i'm willing to bet most were.

    I was totally playing the trial of this game earlier and when I saw that head as an option in multiplayer I said, "oh I want to play as Peter Molyneux!"

     Microsoft has revealed that Fable creator Peter Molyneux will be having a cameo appearance in the Xbox Live Arcade remake of Perfect Dark.

    The news was revealed at the X10 event not by Molyneux, who was too busy talking about Fable 3, but by Microsoft's Ken Lobb. He has outstanding cameo experience himself: when at Nintendo he worked on the original Perfect Dark and Goldeneye, and was rewarded by having the latter's worst gun named after him.

    It's actually Nintendo's influence that lead to Molyneux's inclusion: the original game featured the figureheads of the Japanese platform holder, including Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto. For the XBLA rebirth, they've been replaced with Microsoft equivalents. We're hoping that includes people like Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer, although no details were forthcoming.

    The original Perfect Dark allowed you to use the cameo characters in multiplayer, a tradition we hope endures. We'll find out when Perfect Dark launches on XBLA next month, for 800 Microsoft Points.

    But nobody really knows that about him. And he's only been working on Fable this and that for a while. 
     
    So I consider him to only have made Fable. 
     
    You know, I know that he's made more games. I was more just joking about it. Because I feel like he could be doing something interesting. 
     
    Instead of Fable. 
     
     
    Y'know?

    I have to say the Peter Molyneux face was dead on I don't think that was an accident.
