Perfect Dark (N64) Reviews

This game is brilliant especially the multiplayer. There are four stages in the one player mode agent, secret agent, perfect agent and dark agent. The graphics are better than the classic goldeneye. The multiplayer is wicked because the simulant options are very good, you can have lots of players. There are much more and better ...  Read the complete review

Rare were in something of an impossible position after Goldeneye. How do you follow up a game that is so innovative, so ground breaking and simply so good. However good this is, surely it cannot help but disappoint? Well in many ways it is exactly what I hoped for, it's Goldeneye but better. But in some ways its disappointing. This ...  Read the complete review

Rare, beautiful Rare. First they brought us classics like Diddy Kong Racing, Goldeneye and Banjo Kazooie. After that they brought us masterpieces like Donkey Kong 64 and Jet Force Gemini. And now they have produced something that is impossiable to describe, that no words are fit enough for, that... well you get the picture. This game is ...  Read the complete review

Yes i'm afraid so. Perfact Dark is, in my opinion, nothing new. After all that hype and that long wait, N64 just put Goldeneye in a new box. Perfect Dark is a good game but if you still have Goldeneye, you'd be paying £60 for new level designs. However, Perfect Dark does have some hansom features in its gameplay (e.g. the ...  Read the complete review

Perfect Dark is a stunning game, made particularly enjoyable by it's inclusion of simulants into the multiplayer arenas. There are enough options to keep players coming back for more for a very long time. My only dissapointment is that a fair few of the multiplayer arenas are simply too large and sprawling. Also, although it may ...  Read the complete review

Even though I have an N64, I do not own this game. However I have played it in multiplayer with my friends at their houses for many hours, enough to know its strengths and weaknesses. This game, along with an ever-increasing number of N64 games such as Donkey Kong 64, makes full use of the extra 4MB of RAM to give this game stunning ...  Read the complete review

Well, when I received Zelda the Ocarina of Time on Christmas day 1998 I said to myself that it would never be beaten that century. Thankfully due to the N64's legendary delays this statement held true as Perfect Dark was not released until June 30th 2000 as this game surley takes over the title of best game ever. The first ...  Read the complete review

When I first played GoldenEye I thought "this game is perfect!" But then I played Perfect Dark, and it blew GoldenEye away! It is graphically superior, the sounds are better, gameplay the weapons, the multiplayer, and much more. The storyline is fairly original, the characters are great and the AI is brilliant ...  Read the complete review

Whereas 'GoldenEye' was one fine game, 'Perfect Dark' is two fine games. At least. You see, if Rare had released this game with simply the solo missions included, the journalists and punters would have complained it was a simple rehash of 'GoldenEye' (the control system and graphics are very similar). So, ...  Read the complete review

Goldeneye. Undoubtably one of the best 1st person shooters when it was released. However, up against the likes of big PC titles such as 'Alien Vs. Predator' or 'Quake 3 Arena' it has struggled to hold it's own, although it will always hold a special place in the hearts of dedicated N64 gamers. When a ...  Read the complete review

Disappointing is the word best used to describe Perfect Dark. After the waiting more was expected from the follow up to Goldeneye. Single player missions that do not flow and have obscure objectives. A mulitplayer game that slows down more than Goldeneye when 3 or 4 players are involved. Graphics that seem little ...  Read the complete review

When you start up this game, most people go straight to the single player missions and get lost in them for several days. This is fine, but when I got this game I went straight to multiplayer mode. I did this as I own Goldeneye as nearly every N64 owner does, and I wanted to see if things had improved (a nearly impossible ...  Read the complete review

Have just purchased this game for my boy, and I'm sorry to say he has not yet played it. WHY? it's fantastic, I can't get enough of it, the game is very smooth and quick, and it has some really cool extra's, such as the more you shoot an opponent, the more blood will spray on the walls, and black explosion marks from land ...  Read the complete review

PUSH! ok now back to the review. the graphics are really wicked awesome and it is like this much [ ] better than goldeneye. the multiplayer mode is tubular ...  Read the complete review

After three years wait, and more than a few setbacks in the developers release dates, Rare finally deliver 'Goldeneye's follow-up; 'Perfect Dark' to a (more than) eager public. Those who have misspent many hours/days on Rare's 'Goldeneye' will find much here that is familiar. Running on a revamped version ...  Read the complete review

Perfect Dark is one of the crapest games made by rare. The graphics are terrible and it will be #1 only because it is made by Rare. If you like games like this why not go out and buy Operation Winback. Its graphics are amazing and you will never get board of it. Perfect Dark will never top Goldeneye or Wiback no matter what anybody ...  Read the complete review

I played this game yesterday when i went home to visit my family, my brother had bought it that day.... after weeks and weeks of raving about it. We played it for several hours (until my mum complained thsat i hadn't really spoken to her since arriving!) It played really well, was good fun, the graphics were really ...  Read the complete review

Perfect Dark centers on Agent Joanna Dark, code-named "Perfect Dark" (because she's almost perfect, get it?). This butt-kicking British babe investigates a corporation accused of making contact with aliens and using their information for wrong instead of right. It's up to her to find out what's going on and put an ...  Read the complete review

The long awaited new goldeneye style fighting game is out after many delays, but boy was it worth the wait. After playing on goldeneye i believed that there was no way in which any game could be better than it, how wrong i was. Perfect dark has everything, not only is the one player mode amazing if you get bored of doing it yourself you ...  Read the complete review
