Editorial Review:
A first-person shooter that mixes spy and sci-fi, PerfectDark is both a thoroughly engrossing one-player experience and ariotously fun multiplayer romp. Easily one of the best games of itsgenre on any video game console, this long-awaited follow-up toGoldenEye 007 is a must-have for Nintendo 64 owners--and a damngood reason to be one if you're not.
The futuristic Perfect Dark casts players as Joanna Dark, asecret agent who becomes embroiled in a sinister conspiracy involvingaliens and an evil corporation. Gameplay is broken down into missions,each with objectives that must be unerringly completed beforeprogressing to the next mission. This is not your typical kill-anything-that-movesgame: putting a bullet in the wrong person, not keeping theright one alive, or perforating a seemingly unimportant inanimate objectcan often result in mission failure.
While Perfect Dark's solo missions play out much like those inGoldenEye 007, the game's fantastic multiplayer options areanother matter entirely. Cooperative and counteroperative simultaneous-playmodes allow for another player to join in on a mission as,respectively, a teammate or the enemy. However, the real fun here is inthe highly customizable Combat Simulator, a one-to-four-playersimultaneous-play mode that features both free-for-alls and team-basedchallenges and can include up to eight Simulants, computer-controlledcombatants of varying behavior.
Although Simulants make for decent adversaries or teammates, you'll wantto grab a friend--and an Expansion Pak, as only 35 percent of the gameis available without one--to fully enjoy Perfect Dark. --JoeHon

Rating: - One of the best games for the N64
I bought this game having played 007 quite a bit, which was made by the same people and is one of the greatest N64 games ever made.The advantage that Perfect Dark has is in the multiplayer combat.In addition to friends, you can have up to 8 computers playing in the game, with any combination of teams that you want.This is fun with several real friends, or just for playing by yourself against others.The AI is smart enough to be extremely challenging at the hardest difficulty levels, or slow/dumb ...

Rating:  - Ehh...an interesting shooter, with fun 4 player options...
...but nothing quite like Goldeneye, or any of the 007 games.If the price is under $10, buy it, it'll be worth it.
Rating:  - Great Action Shooter Game
Perfect Dark is GoldenEye's gameplay sequel.Not the story sequel.It involves more and more weapons than GoldenEye and a co-op campaign missions to help you if you get stuck.This game also has dialogues which means not only do they have the subtitles, the characters actually speak.GoldenEye doesn't.Plus the sound effects of footsteps make things more realistic.Very challenging and very fun.Beat GoldenEye first, then get this game and beat it.
Rating: - Amazing game
If you have never heard of perfect dark or have never played it then you are missing out.This is the only game in its genre for the N64 to match the gameplay and graphics of Goldeneye 007.I swear by this game and name it one of the best games of all time.Great replay value, multiplayer and single player missions makes this game worth purchasing for any amount of money.
