Hello, i'm back with a little short remake. This one is the Nintendo & Rareware Logos and main title theme.
I had to go on a little search to find the original uncompressed choir sample and in my search i found that the same sample was used in the Castlevania 64 OST.
It's only a short track, but its very atmospheric and I imagine its very nostalgic for those of you who played this game back in the day.
So I ran into this video that shows the game having been recompiled with optimizations to improve performance: https://youtu.be/SghTvPMXgPk?si=jCNDHLHJKma6lUZX
This is NOT the PC port, it is the game on N64 with optimized code. This video was made 4 years ago. Have any improvements been made in regards to this, and what is the newest version of this patch that I can find? Thanks.
What should I expect? I'm going in blind but I've heard alot of good about it.

Perfect Dark OST is so much fun to transcribe, play and record (or reimagine). Hope you enjoy the results!
perfect zero was huge part my childhood I’m 27 now I was around 8 when got game from one old school game store and was genuinely happy to hear it was getting a reboot only to find out that because have silver spoon up there ass the reboot got canceled indefinitely hopefully if company politics chang we will finally get a remake I guess silver lining is someone made a pc port of orginal game
and I enjoyed Perfect Dark Zero a lot more. In fact I loved it. Perfect Dark was actually a replay for me, and I feel like it didn't hold up as well as my memory of it. I like the idea of the game, and gameplay flows nicely until it doesn't. Could be old design or skill issue on my part, but a lot of times where you need to go or what you need to do next wasn't very clear. This combined with bugs and some random softlocks killed my enjoyment of the game at certain points. The overall story and locations were not my favorite either. I will say that Joanna is great though, some of the other characters are cool too, and I liked the plot points with the Skedar.
Meanwhile Perfect Dark Zero fixed most of my issues with the original. Sure the gameplay was more streamlined but it really helped with the pacing and polish of this one. I much enjoyed the cinematic quality of the prequel, and generally preferred the locations, supporting characters (besides Elvis, my GOAT), and overall plot of the game. I also really found the mix of FPS and cover shooter to be neat, even if the transition between the two wasn't always smooth. Jo also still has her wit, and her look is perfect in my opinion.
I believe another big factor in why I loved the second game is that I didn't go into it hoping for just more of the first game, so the switch ups felt fresh to me. I also wasn't weighing it against the contemporary FPS greats like the Halo trilogy and Half-Life 2, just as its own thing. Thoughts on the Perfect Dark vs Zero comparison?
