Nintendo Previews New Game ``Perfect Dark'' On fromUSAlive.com's Internet TV Show the Game Room

PITTSBURGH--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--May 23, 2000--The Nintendo Co., Ltd., is previewing it's new video game "Perfect Dark" for the N64 System on The Game Room Internet TV show, according to fromUSAlive.com. The preview can be seen at the beginning of any game review episode at projectgames.com

"Perfect Dark," published by Rare Ltd., has been described by Nintendo as "an incredibly rich and challenging single player game" which "shoots multiplayer fans straight to heaven." They also state that the game "flips the script on the predictable plots of first-person shooters, with a twisting story line where aliens are allies and trust is a luxury which you can't afford." A "beautifully shot and provocative" 60-second trailer for the game can be viewed at the beginning of The Game Room episodes.

fromUSAlive.com is running the preview as part of an experimental Internet advertising project by Nintendo, fromUSAlive.com, and streaming media host iBEAM Broadcasting (Nasdaq: IBEM). If this trailer succeeds in garnering interest, iBEAM predicts that you will see a lot more advertising in this format.

In the preview, viewers learn about Joanna Dark, a young Field Operative who is sucked into a conspiracy involving alien nations and the sinister dataDyne Corporation. It is the player's task to navigate Joanna through a trail of secrets, leading her from skyscrapers to top secret air bases and alien shipwrecks, in her mission to save the world.

The Game Room is planning a special review of "Perfect Dark." "If the girl in the game looks anything like the girl in the trailer, I'm not leaving my Nintendo for a week!" Mark promises.

Each week, The Game Room "takes a unique look at the newest video games on the market and the classic games you love, all from the lunatic minds of Mark and Dave." The show was recently called "one of the most in-depth review sites online" in the Caught in the Web section of "Wizard Magazine."
