Perfect Dark Zero Review

-Perfect Dark Zero

Gameplay:
This game is so fun to play. Playing as a girl didn't bother me at all. The music and the controls were extremely great. The controls felt like angels beaming light onto my hands. IT was PERFECT (dark zero, hahaha). Anywho, you might not have heard of the game, because it came out in 2005. Some good gameplay elements were that you were never stuck for too long, because if you do get stuck, an arrow will appear and tell you where to go. And even the tutorial level was very actiony. This game is SO great. It even has vehicles, and I believe there are 25 AWESOME weapons, each with a secondary and sometimes tertiary function. If you want to dowload the demo on Xbox Live, please do.
20/20

Story:
This is where the game lacks a little bit. It's interesting if you follow it, but it's hard to follow. It's really just a typical spy story. They don't flesh people out enough, and you don't end up caring for people when they die (spoiler: they die).
6/10

Graphics:
Because the game came out in 2005, the graphics aren't too great. There are times when the cutscenes look amazing, and I'm pretty sure there is Motion Capture because some of the people look really realistic. But the overall graphics are a little too 2005.
6/10

Replay:
The replay for this game is not bad. There are exploration points you can get and stuff, and there's always something you may have missed before. The game is always fun, but like Gears of War, nothing beats your first time playing it.
7/10

Total: 39/50

Awesomeness %: 78%

Recommend? Yes. You should get this game, even though it got a 78%. It's mostly the gameplay that counts, and since that got a 20/20, you should get it. I got it used for 8 bucks so it's definitely worth the money and a little more. The multiplayer is good, too, so you should get this game if you need to get away from your Halo 3, COD 4 or Fallout 3 for a few days.
