I picked this up in a recent sale and it wasn't half as good as I remember it being. Part of the problem with games like this is that if you do remember how things play out then they lose a lot of their charm. I also preffered the look of the DS game more than this one. Things looked too sharp and clean and I found myself missing the pixilated look of the original version. Missile still rules though. -

Again, same for me. I remember thinking it all turned a bit goofy once Elvis the alien showed up. Feels like it was a few years too late with all that stuff anyway. Things like Independance Day, X-Files, Men in Black, Starship Troopers, Outer Limits and Mars Attacks had all been and gone by the time the game released. Had it stuck with the more futuristic Bond setting then I may have enjoyed it more. -
I always thought the 2 Rare N64 shooters were very front loaded. The first few levels in each are endlessly replayable and a lot of fun, but they both dip heavily in the mid-game. Unlike Goldeneye, Perfect Dark doesn't pick up again towards the end, and the back half of the game is pretty average. Level design is not very interesting and I was never really a fan of the alien stuff. I've played through both to the end on NSO (and Goldeneye once again on Series S) and had a great time with both, but those games were really all about the multiplayer and the fun times with friends looking back. -
Maybe it'll come. I forgot that I got it on GB at some point over the years but never really felt like playing it on the dim old GBA 🥲 I'd certainly try it if it came to NSO and I wouldn't mind seeing Metal Gear Solid too as I never played the Gameboy version of that either! I'm not sure if I'll go back to finish Perfect Dark again or not. The stage design and lack of clarity with some of the missions is proving to be a bit of a nightmare at times 😕 -

I'm the same. I remember the hype around the game at the time of release. Both Official Nintendo and N64 magazines were constantly raving about it, especially the face capture feature that was ultimately canned. I picked it up on launch day from Woolworths and played it all weekend. After the credits rolled I boxed it up and never played it again and it was never in the multiplayer rotation when my friends and I had gaming sessions. I've never completed the game since. I'm one of the sickos who actually prefers Perfect Dark Zero. It's a shame the GBC version isn't on NSO. I would have liked to have given it a go.
