    A great First-Person Shooter for Xbox 360.

    Perfect Dark Zero is one of my favorite release titles for the XBox 360. The graphics are gorgeous, the main character has personality, and it's a good combo of shooting, stealth and puzzle solving. I've been testing... Read Full Review

    Graphics are great, but that's where it ends.

    As the console's first first person shooter, a lot was expected from it. Before it came out the screenshots looked great and gameplay looked compelling, so it was one the games I was most looking forward to for the XBOX ... Read Full Review

    AN XBOX 360 classic

    I heard that this one is one of the best FPS for XBOX 360 and I ordered it to play it. Well, the gameplay is simple, you have tasks that you must perform with your gun. As a female agent, you travel round the globe to s... Read Full Review

    Aside from being Perfect Dark It sucks

    What happened? Perfect Dar was a great game! This "Next-gen" Sequel is horrible! First of all, they changed Joanna Dark`s character model. Fine. It sucks, but I can deal with that. But the bad parts show up. The gamepla... Read Full Review

    This game is something unique

    The campaign's plot is non-existent. It's that bad. The gameplay is what makes this game worth any salt. There are 13 missions total in the campaign and I was just beating my head against the wall as I drug myself throug... Read Full Review

    Perfect Dark Zero may not fill the legendary shoes of it's predecessor, but it's still a fun shooter you can appreciate.

    Pros: -Solid campaign -Good multiplayer that features plenty of different modes and customization options, can be played with up to 32 players online and features bots for offline -Good variety of weapons all with mul... Read Full Review

    Perfect Dark Zero's excellent combat and great multiplayer more than make up for any issues.

    Perfect Dark Zero is a prequel to the original N64 classic. While I wouldn't say this is as good as Perfect Dark, it's still a damn good game that is under-appreciated. The weakest element in PDZ is the story. It's poorl... Read Full Review

    What Would Elvis Do?

    The original Perfect Dark was so darn good that when I saw this for a measly twenty bucks I couldn't pass it up. I spent a good year on the original--it was an all-purpose shooter. Even if you were alone, the multiplayer... Read Full Review

    PDZ...Pretty Disappointing...Zebra? (I don't like it, okay!)

    Perfect Dark Zero is a prequel to the 2000 N64 hit, Perfect Dark, but hey, you could've fooled me! The game is nothing like the previous installment. Joanna Dark is no longer a tough, respectable, British agent. Now, she... Read Full Review

    Awful game

    Basically they completely gutted the original Perfect Dark, removing most of your options, totally changing the story (Joanna was originally a British secret agent, now she is an American teeny-bopper), and essentially m... Read Full Review

    It's multiplayer is pretty fun but singleplayer needs work...

    I'll be honest, I actually thought this game wasn't going to be worth but since it was only $20 (used) and I love shooters, I thought I'd give it a try. It actually turned out to be really fun, especially the multiplaye... Read Full Review
