Synopsis

Perfect Dark is a remastered version of the first-person shooter video game of the same name. Developed by 4J Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios ten years after the original's release in 2000, the remaster features several technical improvements, including higher resolution textures and models, a higher frame rate, and a multiplayer mode that supports the Xbox Live online service. The game was released in March 2010 for the Xbox 360 console, via the Xbox Live Arcade download service. The game's story follows Joanna Dark, an agent of the Carrington Institute organization, as she attempts to stop a conspiracy by rival company dataDyne.

Perfect Dark was in development for almost a year and its game engine was completely rewritten from the ground up to support several features of the Xbox 360. Therefore, although the game plays exactly the same as the original, the code and rendering engine are different. The game received generally favorable reviews. Some critics felt that the relatively unchanged game was outdated, but most agreed that the title was a solid revival of a classic.
