Perfect Dark (N64) was and is one of my favorite games. Microsoft came along and downgraded it (in my opinion ruined) with perfect dark zero.

I still was hopeful to see the reboot for the new era of consoles. Until I saw the gameplay demo. It's like they hired people who specifically didn't play any Perfect Dark game. When it got axed I wasn't surprised and was actually happy, ironically.

Perfect Dark was one of the best N64 games, it is criminal that it wasn't more well known. It is an incredibly rare sequel that builds on the original in significant ways without doing anything to muck up the existing successful formula... and Goldeneye as a starting point was already one of the best games of that era.
