IGN
After three years Rare delivers N64 owners one major reason to put their copy of GoldenEye 007 down.

GamePro
With all the gadgets and alternative goals thrown in, "Perfect Dark" is more than just a straight-up blastfest; It's a futuristic spy-thriller that also happens to be the best multiplayer shooter on the console market.

Gaming Target
The visuals are easily an improvement over Perfect Dark's predecessor. The character models have been refined and look more detailed than ever, they being more smooth and realistic. The level designs are done adequately, but feature complexity in the

So there's no doubt in anyone's mind... there is not now, nor will there ever be a nude code for Joanna Dark. Go get a

The long awaited sequel to Goldeneye has finally arrived and is near perfect. First of all let's get one thing out the way, if you don't have an expansion pack, there is no sense in even trying to play this game. You will only get 35% of the game

Whereas GoldenEye 007 was not too difficult to script due to it being based of the movie of the same name, Perfect Dark was a tougher cookie. However, the writers at Rare came up trumps with this tale of mystery and espionage surrounding the special

This review is from the perspective of the year 2000; let’s just pretend the last 5 years never happened, just for a while! Now onto the story, Perfect Dark takes place in 2023 (this year stuff could get confusing now!) and tells the story of Joanna

The thing I love so much about it is how it spews out one exciting setup after another, rarely expending effort on any of that "downtime" crap. Just the third of its twenty levels, for instance, starts you off in the foyer of a colossal office building;

Da GameBoyz
From superior graphics, which really showcase the capacity of the N64 Expansion Pak, to Dolby Surround Sound, to seemingly unlimited playability potential, "Perfect Dark" is the game of choice for N64 owners.

Magnificent. Until now, GoldenEye was arguably the best reason for gamers over the age of 16 to own a Nintendo 64. No longer.

Game Chronicles
Perfect Dark is definitely a cut above GoldenEye in nearly every way and for good reason, as it basically requires you to have the Expansion Pak for your M64 system. The inclusion of in game speech is a welcome addition, as is the new multi-purpose

Science Fiction Weekly
Interactive characters range from a Sean Connery-esque Chief of the "Carrington Institute" (like the CIA without the A), to generic co-workers, to full-fledged "Simulants"--computer-generated people that train, aid or do multiplayer battle with Ms. Dark.

Well they kinda lied. I only say kinda because the style of the game is the same. However, Bond has been replaced by Jonna Dark, the Russians have been replaced by the skedar, and trvelan has been replaced by the mysterious Mr. Blonde. I want to warn you

The premise is sci-fi all the way. You are Joanna Dark. The government agency you work for has made contact with the Maians, a group of stereotypical aliens. In the meantime, the sinister Datadyne Corporation has established ties with the Skedar, a

No longer are those shooting at you simple targets in a practice range. These guys are smart, evil and ready to battle. Enemies will work together to cover each other, they’ll roll under your gunfire, hide behind corners and even shoot the gun right

Sometimes owning a Nintendo 64 is kind of a drag, especially if you're not a Pokemaniac or don't go for those cute games like Mario Party. But why would you own a Nintendo 64 if you weren't into huggable characters? I know, I know, you loved Goldeneye.

Armchair Empire
Perfect Dark did just that. The multiplayer options are spectacular, giving people the opportunity to play as one large team towards a specific goal. The cooperative missions are a treat to play, especially on some of the more difficult missions where

The premise of Perfect Dark is that you are a special government agent on a near-future Earth. Your agency has made friendly contact with a group of aliens known as the Maians, those big-headed gray little men made popular in Whitley Strieber books

The Video Game Critic
If GoldenEye was "A" material, Perfect Dark has to be an "A+". Using an enhanced version of the GoldenEye engine and taking full advantage of the expansion pack, this is the ultimate first-person shooter for the N64. No, you don't get the familiar James

Goldeneye was an excellent game that revolutionized multi player
game play on the gaming consoles. Man people bought the game
just for the multi player because it was fun.

talk about concerning Perfect Dark, but I’d rather not ramble on and give this one statement: even if you are a hardcore PC first-person-shooter gamer, give Perfect Dark a try. It’s probably one of the best FPSs to be released in quite a while, and provid
