#10 - Perfect Dark

Game: Perfect Dark
System: Nintendo 64
Genre: First Person Shooter


It's controversial but I liked Perfect Dark that little bit more than Goldeneye. After finally getting my hands on it I loved every bit of it (I was going crazy waiting for Golden Discs to get it in stock before finally cancelling my order in favour of going to Dublin and even then Anto had to buy it because I wasn't quite 18). I even managed to complete it on Perfect Agent once I got over my fear of the terrifying cloaking Skedar. It's such a quotable game: "Please don't do that Joanna, it worries me" and the added modes to the multiplayer make all the difference. It has to be my most played multiplayer mode out of all the games I've ever played. We made 8 regular sims we got to know by name and I'll never forget the mode where we pitted ourselves and 7 normal sims against a tiny blonde woman in a red dress set to the hardest difficulty. If we knew she was coming we'd literally run away screaming, terrified, and she always won by a landslide but it was great fun.
