The latest Zelda game is already up there in terms of perfection. The open-world means you can literally do anything you want, and makes this the best game of the decade, hands down.
Perfect Dark (N64)
Score: 97%

Other than GoldenEye, this is the other FPS of that era that absolutely dominated. The graphics were amazing, the Dolby sound was immersive and the story was pretty engaging. Who doesn’t love hot secret agents and aliens?

Both the playing public and critics can’t say enough good stuff about this game. Over time, the legend of it has grown, and it’s due to the story, the large world and the sound design. It’s so immersive that it’s only when you hit ‘quit,’ that you realize you’re not actually living in Hyrule.
