I remember me and the guys used to have a Perfect dark game night. 2 N64's, 8 controllers, free for all on both. at the end of the games, the two highest scored people would one vs one, and whoever won that, got 10 bucks, a jumbo bottle of whatever soda they wanted, and 2 packs of jolly ranchers.

Perfect Dark was by far one of the best FPS games of the N64 era, easily in the Top 5. It came out around the same time as Golden Eye (the game based off the James Bond film). Perfect Dark took the 4 player splitscreen multiplayer to whole new levels...you could do so much with it. so many characters, weapons, levels, you could customise your lives, difficulty...it really set the ideal for the future of what games should be about when it comes to shooters.

These games are important and I absolutely love them, especially perfect dark. They were revolutionary for FPS on console, but they were very prototypical and extremely imperfect. Relics of a transitional era for FPS on console. No one had nailed how to handle FPS controls without a mouse and keyboard at this time, and as a result the controls in both goldeneye and perfect dark are pretty terrible. They make too much compromise, because it was all they knew how to do at that time. The 64 controller is also not friendly to FPS, and designing the controls for an FPS on the 64 controller was just not ideal. It was the first Halo game that nailed console FPS controls, and formed the standard for how FPS will be handled on consoles from then on. I regularly play Perfect Dark on my original hardware, without emulation. If you play it this way you'll notice that the framerate is terrible. Without any framecounter I'd guess the game averages far less than 20 fps, and drops regularly in large open spaces and rooms with lots of enemies. This is something people forget about PD, I guess we all put up with it back then, maybe we are spoiled now with games being expected to be able to run at a stable 60fps on mid-tier hardware. But this was not the standard at the time, a lot of PD's contemporaries and even predecessors had stable framerates and far fewer bugs and memory issues. Still, I'd argue that the best FPS games of all time are all PC natives. I think it's stiff competition. When Perfect Dark came out in 2000, the previous decade saw Doom, Quake, UT, Half-Life, Duke Nukem 3d, Blood, and a bunch of other revolutionary and extremely influential games that are highly acclaimed to this day. I dont know that PD could honestly stand against any of those PC FPS giants, the only thing it has going for it was how accessible it was at the time. Not as many people owned gaming PCs as they do now, and few people wanted to bother learning how to use a computer just to play games. It was far easier to buy a console and play games that way in the 90s and early 2000s.

I disagree entirely Eazy - E. A game that's lacking TONS of features that PD has. A game that has micro transaction wallet rape written all over it from one of the most evil corporations in gaming aka activision. A game that's totally based on twitch shooter nube friendly repetitive game play. Just no dude... Games like cod owe everything to games like PD which actually evolved shooters instead of just ripped off gamer suckers. Some halo games come close but even those lacked the weapon variety and multiplayer options that PD has. And the PD remaster is fucking bad ass. But hey... Based on your taste in music it seems you just sort of go with what's newer and popular all of the time for the most part so I'm not surprised at your lack of notice when it comes to the gems of the entertainment world. One day you might get better at identifying talent though... Good luck to you.
