I can't say enough good things about Rare's Perfect Dark, and as of this writing, I haven't even finished the game!
Using their incredible Goldeneye engine, the folks at Rare have improved upon their success 1000% - on the technical side they've added speech, longer cinematic cuts to keep you involved in the story, and great music. Within the game itself, FPS nuts like myself will thrill to the new weapons and gadgets.
The game is not just "shoot everyone and take everything you see," however; there are many sequences where your guile and intelligence will serve you much better than a machine gun.
The single or multiplayer Combat Simulator is what every FPS game from now on will use as the industry standard; the ability to tweak every nuance of your deathmatch is unparalleled, and the skills of the computer-run "simulants" will challenge even the most jaded console warrior to the fight of his or her "life."
Highly recommended, Perfect Dark scores a Perfect 10.
