Certainly the best on the N64 IMO.I dont know why everyone goes on about Goldeneye,this game is far superior in every way,& has genuinely groundbreaking ideas,such as a friend being able to play as your enemies in the campaign,& Co-Op for the campaign,which was almost unheard of in those days,especially for an FPS.While Goldeneye,was a pretty generic game,with notthing particually special or outstanding about it,& If released today,Goldeneye would be seen as a weak game i suspect,but after playing the newly polished Perfect Dark,its still got all the magic,& all the features that made it a classic game.From the features already mentioned,to the great weapons with imaginative secondary modes,well thought out missions,with varying objectives depending on the game dificulty,that are untypical in this day & age,the music,everything was good.Most of the weapons in Perfect Dark have become iconic to anyone that has played the game.A great job has been done on the new version of this game,giving it a High Def polish & a super smooth framerate(which was the only thing that let the original down a little).This is as close to a 'Perfect' (Pun Intended) game than your going to get.Wether you had this on the N64 or not,I HIGHLY recommend this game.… Expand

   "The other though was the story mode, which was inferior to GoldenEye 007 in terms of both design and its insipid characters, plot and game "The other though was the story mode, which was inferior to GoldenEye 007 in terms of both design and its insipid characters, plot and game world." David Jenkins, you're a fucking idiot. Goldeneye's singleplayer didn't even HAVE a story (or characters for that matter), and PD was far superior to GE in every way imaginable. GE's story was ripped off of the movie, which wasn't that great to begin with. Seriously, that's the dumbest thing I have ever read. Rare actually tried for originality with PD, and, unlike you, many were more impressed with PD's ingenuity than they were with GE (Single and Multi). I guess mom wouldn't let you play PD until it was released on the arcade though, so you wouldn't know. In reality, nostalgia's the only reason you claim GE is a classic. I wouldn't be surprised if your main gripe with PD has more to do with the leading female character, you chauvinist twat.… Expand

This is basically theFor those who have played this on their N64 and enjoyed it, Should definitely purchase this game no if, and or buts. This is basically the same exact game that you played on the N64. The only addition is online co-op (I'm very happy that they kept local co-op)
   
   Also, a cool feature in online co-op is that you can play in splitscreen mode. Yes, even in online co-op. See your friend screen on top (or bottom) as if he/she is playing right next to you on the sofa.

It cannot be more fun running guns out and blazing through this game and killing every enemy you see, picking up the amazing selection of guns and completing objectives. I can't be more satisfied since this port is just great! For 800 microsoft points this is the best deal you will find.… Expand

But it's still a LOT of fun. If you played the original on N64 and liked it, I can honestly say that you'll have even more fun with this new port. Just a warning though: Online matchmaking takes forever, so it's best to play this game with either your friends or bots.… Expand

   J'ai joué à ce truc via la compil' Rare Replay sur Xbox One qui émule la version "remastérisée" Xbox 360 de la vieille version Nintendo 64 :J'ai joué à ce truc via la compil' Rare Replay sur Xbox One qui émule la version "remastérisée" Xbox 360 de la vieille version Nintendo 64 : c'est amusant. Non, le jeu n'a rien d'amusant mais il est amusant de constater qu'on puisse jouer dans d'excellentes conditions à une vieille daube de ce genre, car on s'en voudrait d'avoir raté un truc pareil.
   
   Oui, on s'en voudrait, car il s'agit apparemment d'un FPS incroyable du monde des consoles, un monument porté aux nues par... ah mais attendez, il s'agissait d'un jeu de la Nintendaube, donc tout s'explique : les fanboys idolâtres des consoles Nintendaube sont en effet les pires fanatiques au monde et de toute la galaxie. Et de tout l'univers. Il ne faut donc pas s'étonner des notes et commentaires dithyrambiques à propos d'un FPS foireux.
   
   Bon, au moins ça tourne à 60 im/s et les graphismes sont propres. "Propres" mais pas vraiment jolis pour autant. Néanmoins, on ne les critiquera pas outre-mesure, vu l'âge du machin évidemment. On se bornera à constater (comme un huissier) que même en 2000, on avait des FPS mille fois mieux que ce "Perfect Dark"... sans compter le premier Halo sorti en... 2001 !
   
   On se bornera simplement à tourner en rond là-dedans comme dans un vieux Doom... mais sans aucune carte ni repère, ni rien. Et sans sauvegarde pendant la mission, histoire de prolonger une durée de vie naturellement faiblarde. Et sans médikit non plus (histoire de prolonger etc...). On constatera également que sans la visée automatique, le jeu est injouable et qu'avec, il est ridicule. On notera que les sensations sont absentes, que la jouabilité est molle et que les ennemis sont stupides.
   
   En conséquence de quoi, on s'ennuie à vitesse grand V dans cet ersatz de FPS à la petite semaine, démoulé par Rare, le développeur qui fait rarement de bons jeux et toujours de la merde.… Expand
