Oh man! This is By far the BEST n64 game out! It has 4 player match, an awesome unfolding storyline, sweet graphics, and more! Lots of cut-scenes and the multiplayer action is the best you will find in a game! Tons of guns and tons of enemies. If I were you, I'd save up to get it. This is a must buy for the holidays, or even for any day!
If you only buy one game for your N64, make it this one...

If only *half* of the goodies Rare (the developers of this game) have dropped on us wind up being in here, it still warrants five stars. But knowing them, they've only told us half of all the new stuff!
Based on Rare's extremely-popular Goldeneye engine, this is the "semi-sequel"... follow Joanna Dark as she infiltrates the dataDyne corporation to uncover a deep, sci-fi-based plot, with loads of weapons, strategy, and multiplayer fun!
Confirmed features include:
-- At least two multiplayer levels from Goldeneye
-- All of Goldeneye's weapons, and more
-- Much improved AI, where teams of enemies can interact, function as a group and assess threats
-- A weapon that slowly let's you target through, then shoot through walls (no, that's not a typo... bye-bye, campers!)
-- An intricate, deep plot (with numerous twists)
-- The ability to introduce "bots" to your multiplayer gaming... i.e., play by yourself against a few computer-controlled bots, or have a 4-player game and assign each player a bot to help them out, etc. The bots can also be set to specific modes, including Revenge (hunting whoever killed it--or it's human teammate, I'm not sure--last), Target (going after only one person the whole game), Pacifist (guess...), and more
-- More levels, some specifically designed for multiplayer
-- Real-time lighting effects, and other graphical goodies that I can't remember at the minute
-- The ability to take a snapshot of your face (yes, you being the person who holds the controller) and paste it onto your character in the game (this will be done via a Game Boy Camera...)
-- ... What are you waiting for? Pre-order it already! :-)

If you loved Goldeneye 007, then Perfect Dark is the game for you. Set in the future, PD is a realistic 3D shooter with many new features. Similar to Turok in weapons switching, you can use a variety of almost 40 weapons. New devices and situations (such as night vision ) make this game a very exciting one. Plus, the thing we have been waiting for: The multiplayer scenario. This is why Goldeneye was so popular (still is). With these additions, the single player and multiplayer games will be excellent! A must get game!
Perfect Game

Perfect Dark is undoubtedly the best shooter ever developed for the N64, it just screams out technical perfection and good wholesome shooting fun. The gaming engine was carried over from the amazingly successful Goldeneye, and even improved upon. The game has even been delayed many times, so the developer can bring an absolutely "perfect" product that you will still be playing years from now.
Best game ever!

This is sure to be the best game of the year. It is the sequel to Goldeneye, winner of the "Game of the Year Award 1997", and it features the best graphics i've ever seen! It has a wide variety of weapons, several modes of play, and the best multiplayer mode ever. If you buy one game this year, make it Perfect Dark!
Best Game Ever?.......Ahhhh YEAH!

Makers of Goldeneye, over 40 weapons, awesome multiplayer action, incredible story, great graphics, fantastic gameplay, expansion pack enhanced, its been in the making for many years and these guys arn't playing around. I'm telling you right now if you don't allready have a N64, get one, if you don't have an expansion pak, get one, and if you don't have this game on reserve, do it now!
Perfect Dark is just plain Perfect

Its not an easy task to follow-up 1997's shootem up masterpiece Goldeneye. One of the bestselling games of all-time and a fan favorite, the game had something for everyone. But Rare, the original maker, has outdone themeselves with Perfect Dark. You play as Joanna Dark, a government agent on earth in 2029. As Joanna, its your job to stop the evil company DataDyne from taking control of the earth. This is a rapid first person shooter that gives you amazing weapons in awesome levels. You walking through futuristic Chicago, with an alien weapon shooting down bad guys, is one the coolest parts of the game, and all the parts are like this. The multiplayer was something Goldeney was hailed for, and PD's is leaps and bounds better. You can add extra bots, computer players, to your deathmatches, waste all your friends with over 44 weapons. And best of all, you can play the 1 player game, as a bad guy! The game requires the 4mb Expansion pack for the other half of the game and multi-player and is rated M for a lot of blood, as well as swearing that include s**t and b**ch, so its not a game for the kiddies. All in all, the game is a little Dark, but even more Perfect.
A masterpiece in history of video gaming
