December 1999

New PD Info
December 30 - Updated by Tweek @ 11:57am EST

Perfect Dark will include nine single player missions, each comprising of several different parts. And on top of that, there will be thirty multiplayer levels to choose from.

By the way, everything on our site that uses CGI no longer works. We're working on the problem, but it means the Wish List, Mailbag, and the Forums don't work. I don't have a clue what's wrong, because I don't know anything about CGI. If you know what might be wrong please email me. If not, please bear with us while we get things sorted out.

By the way, the poll wasn't working either (I guess nothing is working) so I've taken it down. I'll have it up and running again soon.

Merry Christmas...
December 25 - Updated by Tweek @ 10:47pm EST

It's the day after Christmas here, and I'm sorry to announce that no one will be here to update the site until Thursday. I'm sure there won't be any news anyway, so if

Perfect Dark Top 25
(And a Few Other Things...)
December 24 - Updated by Tweek @ 2:54am EST

Recently an account in the Top 25 was reset due to fraudulent activity.
What does this have to do with our site? Well, the site involved was impersonating us in attempt to make us look like cheats. Fortunately though, it was a pretty weak effort and the site involved (Perfect Dark Y2K... not mentioning any names) was punished for their actions. If you're going to cheat, at least do it properley and don't bring in other sites who have won their position fairly. If you're actually interested, read the full story by clicking here (you'll be voting for us at the same time).

Also, just to let you know, we're still working on the forum, but we're having a lot of problems. If you're a genius with those sorts of things (we use Ultimate Bulletin Board), please contact Tom if you think you can help.
And, if you have any ideas on new sections or specials, email me. If you'd like to join the staff, click here for more info.

Lastly, make sure you vote in the new poll, and Merry Christmas for tomorrow. The site won't be updated, but I'm sure you've got better things to do anyway.

The Best Shooter of 1999
December 24 - Updated by Tweek @ 12:41am EST

What do you think is the best Nintendo 64 shooting game of 1999? Well, why don't you vote in our new poll (on the right of the sceen). I'd like to know what you think, because I haven't played any of them yet! I'm not interested in Turok really, and I haven't played JFG yet, but I am looking forward to Rainbow 6, Winback and Resident Evil 2 (When they're released in Australia... some time soon hopefully). I'm thinking of buying just one of them, so help me out by voting for the one you think is best! And if you'd like to see results of the last poll, "What do you think of the new design?", click here.

Another Bond for the N64!
December 23 - Updated by Tweek @ 11:50am EST

This isn't exactly news, or directly related to PD, but I was recently reading about the next Bond game for N64, The World is Not Enough (Unfortunately not being developed by Rare), and thought you be interested, since you are obviously big GoldenEye fans. I've written a small piece about the future title which gives some insight into its developers and the type of game it will be.

Out of Order
December 22 - Updated by Tweek @ 01:47am EST

I'm very sorry to say that our forum is out of order. We're all working round the clock to get it working, since it's our favorite place on this site! So, please be patient while we get things sorted out.

Download Explorer Now!
December 15 - Updated by Tweek @ 1:40am EST

About twenty five percent of you aren't seeing this site the way it's meant to be seen. For some reason, Netscape just doesn't show this site properley and it looks really weird (Maybe this is why

some of you don't like the new design... heh heh). If you want to view this site, and many other sites for that matter, the way they're meant to be seen, download Microsoft Internet Explorer for free here.

Incoming transmission from 2000…

I built this site when I was 12, with some online friends. We took Perfect Dark very seriously.

Restored for nostalgia. Some links are dead. The enthusiasm remains.

Please don’t enter the competitions. February 2000 has been and gone.
