Perfect Dark Zero GameSpot review
- Thread starter radrelic
- Start date
The Good: Awesome presentation, featuring cutting-edge graphics and sound; delicious assortment of high-powered near-future weapons; excellent cooperative mission mode lets you play split screen or online; lots of multiplayer options, including some clever twists on familiar themes; one of the best original soundtracks this year.
The Bad: Characters can look ugly up close, plus some other minor graphical glitches; some missions are frustrating, especially since you can't save midmission; pretty weak storyline is incidental to all the action.
Taken as a whole, Perfect Dark Zero is decidedly one of the best, fully featured Xbox 360 games so far, and it's a compelling reason to spring for the system if you've been on the fence. While the game doesn't reinvent the first-person shooter, which has been a mainstay of action gaming for more than a decade, it delivers one of the most highly refined and spectacular examples of this brand of gameplay to date. From its ravishing good looks and totally first-rate audio, to the believable feel of its outstanding weapons, to its wealth of single- and multiplayer options, Perfect Dark Zero delivers just about everything you could hope for from a first-person shooter.

it was a pity AAA :lol
Naw, I'm sure it's a nice game. but their "the bad" makes it seem like it should have been a lower score. Looks like a worthy purchase though.

Well the rollercoaster is coming to the end and it looks like I will be buying it, mainly for the multiplayer.
Isn't this Gamespot's highest rated launch game too?

And sonic adventure for DC.
Actually, this is the lowest scoring best launch title. After the DS launch that is.
Ahahahaahaha! Hahahahaha! Bwaahahahaha!
*catches breath* <puff> <puff>
Aaahahahahahahahahaha!
Tens of thousands of people forming lines all over the country, Greg "Gladiator" Kasavin giving the much maligned PD0 a freakin 9.0... Oh my. Today has been one bitter, bitter day for Xbox haters.
