    this game is one of the most stupid and confusing games I have ever played I got past the first few levels but I couldn't get past any other levels and lot of my friends have the same problem the only thing this game really has going for it now days is the split screen multiplayer but other than that this game really isn't worth getting

    A good game with updated graphics and the character sounds like Lara croft from the edios tomb raider games for its time this was gold the graphics are now outdated but it's still a classic

  1. It's been ten years, but Joanna aged rather well. Fun, entertaining, with a bunch of game modes (solo and multiplayer), Perfect Dark is almost as great as it was when it was first released. This port is good, but it can't really be referred to as a remake.
  2. Zero may have proved that it's hard to create a fitting sequel to a classic, but to see the original Perfect Dark slotting into place so well on XBLA is enough to suggest that, just sometimes, restoration might be a better solution than reinvention.
  3. This is old-school gaming, with none of the modern day handholding we're used to, but it's jam-packed with gaming goodness. The campaign can be frustrating due to a lack of direction, but it's still full of great moments, and the multiplayer is as much fun as it ever was.
