We continue like every week with a new entry in our most retro section. Of course, with the particularity that our return on Tuesday has become a return on Wednesday. Even so, we didn’t want to miss the opportunity to relive a classic as it is. Dark perfect. And we’re talking about an almost mythical game within a company that has great classics in its past.
Powered by Eternal Rare, Dark perfect it has become a cult game for many. Developed for Nintendo 64, Dark perfect would arrive at the console of the big N as the spiritual successor of nothing more nor less than Golden eye. But how did you get there? Don’t go too far, we’ll tell you about it.
What contributed Dark perfect?
Dark perfect will arrive on consoles in 2000. With a 3D graphics style, the game put us in the shoes of Joanna Dark. A secret agent who operates for the Carrington Institute. Under the orders of this institution, our protagonist will take his first steps by entering the dataDyne laboratories.
Through this story, Rare will generate a narrative with several really surprising storyline twists. However, Dark perfect it was more than any shooter. By placing us in 2023, the game transports us to a futuristic environment, thus having an extremely interesting arsenal.
Dark perfect it became a totally revolutionary shooter at the time. And the point is, Rare’s work had many wickerwork from the 007. However, it was not just based on taking these concepts, but he developed and improved them. Not only in the graphic effects, where the title took to the maximum exponent a Nintendo 64 which gave its last hits. Dark perfect added many playable aspects that made players fall in love. One of them and which later remained as a result of this was that almost all of the guns had an alternate fire system.
What has this meant for the industry?
Dark perfect it was another giant leap for our dear Rare. And is that, we are facing a launch that not only took away all the graphics potential of the Nintendo 64, but also took all the good that Golden Eye has done and made it better.
In addition to its story mode, which could be played entirely in co-op, Dark perfect It had a great multiplayer mode that stole many hours from fans of the genre. In this sense, we could not only play with up to 3 more friends on a split screen, but we could also add bots with different personality types. A luxury.
In addition, we must mention that we are facing a very long game, totaling up to 17 missions. These levels had a wide variety of objectives and looked quite different from each other.
For all this and much more, Dark perfect is a fetish game for many players, who still dream of returning to the top of the franchise. As always, we ship to Joniboss to enjoy authentic gems from the past.
