Someday, I will beat at least two stages before I post my game progress. Not tonight, though.

I think FO and I will watch some Beast Wars now, so I only played a little bit of Perfect Dark tonight. I got one more gold medal in the target range. I don't recall what it was... But, anyway, what you have to do to earn gold medals varies quite a bit. In some cases, you just have to aim and shoot. Others require some more strategy. For this one, there was a minimum accuracy requirement of 90% (in addition to the score requirement). Plus, in the first row, there were two targets moving back and forth. In the back row, there were three targets, which periodically rotated around. If you're just standing and aiming, the score seems impossible to achieve. I eventually won by strafing along with the slower moving of the front two targets.

I only beat one stage of Solo on SA. You start on the streets of a Blade Runner-esque city. You have to find a package some other team members left behind for you, you have to create a diversion (so you can enter a datadyne building, which is the next stage) by reprogramming a flying taxi, etc. Simply completing the objectives seems to be the main goal. That may sound obvious, but my point is that the stage between the objectives is neither particularly mazelike nor action oriented. This stage was, again, not nearly as difficult as the third stage, but I did fail a few times (unlike the fourth stage). One part where I died a few times was on an objective that's added on SA level. There's a shoot out with datadyne soldiers, they're at different heights, and further complicating the issue are a couple of civilians who shouldn't be shot but are caught in the cross fire. Still, that part wasn't too hard.
I LOOOOOOVE Flying Omelette!!
