Guide to the cheese
By Brett Franklin


The cheese, it does exist!

What? I hear you ask, cheese, in Perfect Dark?! Yep, that's right. In every level, except one, there is a delicious piece of cheese. Some say it was going to be a way of getting cheats. Find a piece, gain a cheat. But, this would have been two easy, so they took the option out, and left the cheese in. And, others, say that the cheese is there just as a stupid joke. But, that is irrelevent, the cheese is there, and you want to find it!

CARRINGTON INSTITUTE
To get to the cheese in carrington institute, you have do the firing range trick with the hover crate(propping open the door so it doesn't close). Now leave enough room so you can run out, open the double doors leading into the firing range, run into the range, select the slayer, set it on guided rockets, and fire. Guide it outside the range. Take a right and go down the ramps leading to the basement. You obviously cant open doors as a rocket, so take a right at the fork in the ramp. Go outside into the open!

If you go up to a higher level, youll be above the entire area with the hoverbike and crates and stuff. Head over to the door to the institute, the shiny blue one, and a little higher than the level of the door. Turn right, next to the building, and there is cheese, sitting on the ledge. Its a lot easier and faster than that, just read through and follow carefully. An alternative pathway is just following the partition wall between the two helipads and staying a little right of it when you come to the big block.

DATADYNE RESEARCH: INVESTIGATION
You must have a difficulty setting where "Shut down the experiments" is an objective. Go into the first room and shut down that experiment, then go through the two big doors, and you should be in a room with glass on the floor in front of you. If you are turn left and go around the computers and pillar. There should be another glass plate over the floor. About the middle of the plate on the far left side, there is the cheese.

DATADYNE CENTRAL: DEFECTION
In the first level the cheese is in the bottom of a tube right next to the first com hub. You will need to have all guns cheat and put a remote mine the tube next the first com hub and blow it up and it should also knock a hold in it. I found this by accident. While in the room where the cheese is one of the walls in there can be blown up to get into Cassandra's office. It might also be useful to have invincibility on to.

DATADYNE CENTRAL: EXTRACTION
Also on the 1st stage 2nd level in the large area before the isotope and the experimental labs there is a part of the room that sinks down and there is a floor panel if you try to open it will open letting you down the ladder into the firing range. I used the farsite to find out what the ladder was for in the firing range on that level. Also if your fast enough in the room where the radio active isotope is if you run behind the isotope room. There will be a crate with a proximity mine in it.

DATADYNE CENTRAL: EXTRACTION
Blow up a wall panel in Cassandra's office to find it. The wall panel is the back right hand corner.

CARRINGTON VILLA: HOSTAGE ONE
Head down into the basement of the building. Search all of the shelves within the basement area. Find the wine cellar, and you should find a piece of cheese on top of one of the wine cellar shelves.

CARRINGTON VILLA: HOSTAGE ONE
After you go through the doors and start seeing the wine racks, it on top of the 2nd wine rack in the first hallway. You will enter the doors into a room with 2 wine racks in it. Go past them into the hall. There are 2 wine racks lining the walls the 2nd one (the one on the right wall) has the cheese on top of it. You can see a slither of it by looking up, or you can see all of it using a farsight.

CHICAGO: STEALTH
This one is an easy one. Make your way through the first part of the level until you get to the main streets. Look for the Pond Punk Bar (there's a sign), and go inside. Make your way to the back and into the bathrooms. Look inside the toliet to find a piece of cheese floating inside.

CHICAGO: RECONAISSANCE
Another semi-easy piece of cheese to find. Make your way into the vents that lead to the control room. Search inside the vents to find the piece of cheese you are looking for. Ha....I love easy cheese.

CHICAGO: RECONAISSANCE
First, go in the room with the damping field generator. You should see a vent on the wall under the sloping ceiling. The cheese is in there, towards the right.

AREA 51: RESCUE
Once you knock a hold in the wall and get the disguise and do all the other stuff. but don't rescue Elvis go to the area where you can download the two virus's go down the long hall way and you will see a large door and 2 small that lead into the bathrooms shoot or blow up the large door in order to get guard on the other side attention and thus opening it. the door is locked by the way. go up the stairs and to the cat walk where there's a break in to and there's a small walk way there takes you into the vents stop right before you fall into the bathroom and take out a sniper rifle and look to the end of the tubes and you should see the cheese there.

AREA 51: ALL 3 STAGES
All Area 51 stages the cheese is in the same place in the vents above the bathrooms. But in the first area you either need to put it on counter op so that your friend can mabey appear there or use the FarSight.

AIR BASE: ESPIONAGE
Go to the area where the rail car lets off the stewardess and after you knock em all out. You go to the far left until you are agents the ropes. Go to the corner where the rope turns and goes to the wall. Take out your sniper rifle or horizon scan and look down. There should be a patch of water and when you area looking and a close enough zoom you should find it. Might have to move around a bit but it is in that area.

AIR FORCE ONE: ANTITERRORISM
One the plane, go downstairs to the room with the entrance to the room housing the escape pod. As you open the door you there are some pipes to your left. Go past them and turn around. Looking down, the piece of cheese is sitting there.

CRASH SITE: CONFRONTATION
Go to the area the front end on the plane crashed. Or the area where the pres. Ir. scanner is. Go to the nose of the plane. Then go right kill the blonde guy and there. Go Forward till you area where you see till the planes broken wind wing, back up, take out a sniper rifle. Then look between the broken part of the planes wing and the snow wall and the cheese should be on the ground there. If you still can't find it. Right of the plane and look kill blonde and it is in that proximity.

PELAGIC 2: EXPLORATION
Right out side the power room where you use the X-Ray goggles look down on the floor out side of that room and it is below a floor panel around there.

DEEP SEA: NULLIFY THREAT
Or the stage where you have to destroy the mega weapon and dr. carol dies. When you start the stage. Don't move! Take out a sniper rifle and in the hallway That has the glass on the bottom looking at the bottom of the sea. You should be in the hallway at the beginning. Look to the left with the sniper rifle and Zoom in. Look around the corner area or just scan the area. There cheese is a little off from the corner! You might see it as a yellow blip with the falcon you start out with. But the sniper is how you see it.

ATTACK SHIP: COVERT ASSAULT
Go out get Elvis Esc. But do NOT go in the elevators! Stand in front of them. Go to the room on the right where some of the skedar come out of. Look down thought the glass plate on the floor you might need to move around a bit but the cheese in right around there.

SKEDAR RUINS: BATTLE SHRINE
On the skedar battle shrine. Final area. Right before you blast a hole in the wall to get into the hall way that takes you to the room that operates the bridge. Go back and to the area where on agent there is a shield there and a big crack in the wall and two skedar there as well. Use the far sight or sniper (you will have to kneel down to use the sniper look though the crack and the cheese is in there). I am now looking for it in air force 1 stage the others.

MR. BLONDE'S REVENGE
You are going to have to blow up a wall panel some where in Cassandra's office.

MAIAN SOS
Maian SOS same place as in the previous stage in the vents above the bathroom.

WAR!
WAR! Same place where that giant crack in the wall is.

THE DUEL
You need to use the FarSight for this one.

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.
