1. Because first is always best

2. Because literally no one wanted to play multiplayer PD when Goldeneye was an option. I mean wtf, random game where you play as a woman vs. James Bond 007? This is why they included the bots in multiplayer, they saw that shit coming. Would've been a sick Gamecube launch title though.

2 really is true. James Bond vs generic chicks who like aliens is no contest.

Looking it up, I think a big part of it is just timing. Goldeneye was a must have game for a new console.

Perfect Dark came out in 2000 and was surpassed as a multiplayer game when Halo came out in 2001.

Was only speaking of multiplayer. Agree the single player was not as compelling.

PD didn't really improve on Goldeneye from a multiplayer point of view. It had some really cool shit like the farsight, laptop gun, and the bots, but when you booted it up you jusy wanted to play the Goldeneye maps with the classic guns. Goldeneye just had all the quirks going for it too, fuckin Ourumov, Boris, running around all goofy looking, the whole gang. The framerate in PD wasn't even any better, it might've been worse actually.

PD has a lot going for it but they would've been better off releasing it for the Gamecube imo. It's not like Rare even had anything decent in the pipeline for the GC. Or at least port it like they do with everything now.

It came out in early 2000, there was nothing else like it at the time on consoles except goldeneye. PS2 came out in late 2000 and had no games. PD just flopped because you played as a girl.

People like goldeneye single player better but idk.
