“It’s tempting to try to put Perfect Dark Zero in perspective by spending a lot of time on topics other than what makes it such a terrific action game. One of the highest-profile Xbox 360 launch titles, this near-future first-person shooter is the long-awaited sequel to a highly acclaimed Nintendo 64 hit, and it happens to be one of the biggest games to be released by veteran developer Rare since its well-publicized acquisition by Microsoft several years ago. 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). But let’s stick to the point: Perfect Dark Zero’s stunning presentation, excellent assortment of believable weapons, exciting tactical firefights, and fully featured single- and multiplayer components combine to make it easily one of the best first-person shooters this year and one of your best options in the Xbox 360’s starting lineup. Despite some minor shortcomings, the game is still a tour de force for the Xbox 360, and it’s just a thrilling experience that pushes the already-extremely competitive first-person shooter category still further forward.” – http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/perfect-dark-zero-review/1900-6140242/
