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.

PSA: Perfect dark (original n64) has a community-made PC port that's beyond excellent.

I hated the original because the low framerate gave me bad motion sickness. The PC port is like magic by comparison.
