''Perfect Dark'' is an action video game developed by Rare and published by Nintendo exclusively for the Game Boy Color handheld game console. It was released in August 2000, shortly after the release of its Nintendo 64 counterpart. The game takes place in the year 2022, one year prior to the events of the Nintendo 64 game, and follows the exploits of Joanna Dark as she attempts to prove herself as an agent for the Carrington Institute agency. The gameplay revolves around shooting opponents and completing objectives like rescuing hostages or recovering items. It also features a multiplayer mode where two players may compete in different types of deathmatch settings. The game includes a built-in rumble functionality into the game cartridge and supports the Game Boy Printer, Game Link Cable, and Transfer Pak accessories. The Transfer Pak allows certain features within the Nintendo 64 game to alternatively be unlocked. ''Perfect Dark'' received generally a mixed reaction from video game critics, who criticized its poor and difficult gameplay but praised its graphics. ==Gameplay== ''Perfect Dark'' is an action game that is presented from an overhead perspective where the player can move and shoot in eight directions, similar to ''Metal Gear: Ghost Babel''.〔 The player assumes the role of Joanna Dark, who must initially complete a training mode where she will be provided a fixed sequence of challenges so that the player learns the game mechanics. These mechanics include the use of stealth, in which players are challenged to kill enemies by sneaking up behind them without making noise (e.g. running or reloading weapons), complete a memory type game that involves pressing various buttons in a specific order to open up doors, and shoot targets from a first-person perspective.〔 The campaign is divided into several missions that the player has to complete while fighting enemies and completing objectives. Objectives range from rescuing hostages to exploring areas and recovering items such as keycards, explosives or laptop computers, which are useful to hack into electronic devices. The player can pick up new weapons, health and ammunition dropped by enemies if necessary.〔 The game also features several mini-games, including a driving level and a sniper mission, as well as numerous boss battles that the player has to defeat in order to progress through the next level. By beating any of these mini-games, the player can access them in the game's extras menu.〔 In addition to the single-player campaign, ''Perfect Dark'' features a multiplayer mode. With the help of a Game Link Cable, two players can link together and compete in four different types of deathmatch modes, ranging from the standard kill-the-other-person on a pre-set time to the Counter Force mode, where the first player must rescue two hostages while the second player has to guard them. Various multiplayer maps are unlocked as the player progresses through the single player mode.〔 Additionally, with the use of the optional Transfer Pak, players can use the game's cartridge to alternatively unlock some cheats in its Nintendo 64 counterpart.〔 Players may also use the Game Boy Printer to print out character profiles.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Perfect Dark (Game Boy Color)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
