  Perfect Dark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Perfect Dark is set in the year 2023 against the backdrop of an interstellar war between two races: the Maians, who resemble the stereotypical "greys" of alien abduction folklore, and the Skedar, reptile-like extraterrestrials who can disguise themselves as humans.
Although Perfect Dark is not set in the James Bond universe, the gameplay is extremely similar and it retains many of its predecessor's features, such as the ability to use stealth to tackle missions, and objectives that vary with the difficulty setting.
Perfect Dark was the last major first-person shooter game for the Nintendo 64, which was already nearing the end of its lifespan; Nintendo unveiled their new console, the GameCube, at Spaceworld 2000.

 Perfect Dark Zero for Xbox 360 Review - Xbox 360 Perfect Dark Zero Review
Perfect Dark Zero's sci-fi theme, together with the circumstances surrounding its release, also means it's destined to be compared to Halo: Combat Evolved, the game that defined the Xbox (so yeah, no pressure).

Perfect Dark Zero also features a "combat arena" mode that contains most of its multiplayer options, some of which may be played with and against computer-controlled bots in addition to (or instead of) other human players.

 Perfect Dark Zero (xbox360: 2005): Reviews
Perfect Dark Zero doesn’t revolutionize the genre and fans of the previous Perfect Dark game may remark that both are pretty similar but that doesn’t stop it from delivering in the gameplay department.
Perfect Dark Zero as a game is a great experience and although the single player storytelling is rather weak and non engaging, the game play of the missions is where the action flows and offers that engagement that we all look for.
Perfect Dark Zero was the big game for the 360's launch and while it’s probably as good as the original Halo, it still doesn't stack up which shows just how much gaming standards have changed in the five years since the Xbox was released.

 Perfect Dark Zero
After what seems like years of anticipation and waiting, Rare is finally releasing Joanna Dark from the depths of her seclusion — and to make things “perfect” (get it, get it??), she’s not hitting that old and tired Xbox, oh no, she’s hitting the 360 with a vengeance.

Perfect Dark Zero is not going to turn into the franchise that Halo is, nor is it going to lure the masses to the XBox 360, but it is an excellent game that displays the capabilities of the 360 to great success.
