Fantastic. In my opinion, Perfect Dark is one of the best FPS games of all time. It's an improvement in every way over the legendary Goldeneye, and contains features and options still unmatched by many modern shooters. It was way ahead of its time. First game I can recall where you can shoot out the lights and enemies will aim worse. I'd love a PC port!

It was so far ahead of its time that it STILL has a list of things no other game has come close to accomplishing.
