An amazing shooter for its time, it was reason enough to buy a N64.

User Rating: 9.5 | Perfect Dark N64
Perfect Dark was one of the greats that the N64 churned out during its life span. I mean, you had this, Goldeneye, Super Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo Kazooie, Banjo Tooie, Mario Kart 64, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and more! All of which are considered by most to be some of the best games in history. Its a wonder the N64 didn't completely dominate. Anyway, onto the game itself. The graphics, were flat out amazing for their time. The soundtrack is legendary. The A.I. was possibly the best at that point in time. The shooting mechanics were probably the best on a console during that time as well. Not to mention all the cool guns with even cooler secondary firing modes. I don't know what else I could possibly say to convince someone of how amazing this game is. If you haven't played this game yet, I feel sorry for you. You can probably find it on Gametap or a used copy of the original somewhere, but if you haven't already played it you probably don't have an N64.
