I feel it does push that video games as art envelope, specially with the story. It made me even mature a bit. Back in the day I was just a typical kid who fantasized about armies blowing shit up. The game sort of slapped me across the face and got me interested in learning about the real face of war and the military industrial complex.
the gameplay is fantastic and I don't have much to add to it. I think you can't run and shoot which I remember pissing me off. Besides for that, all the action sequences, boss battles, etc were absurdly interesting and fun. Lots of variety. |
This by far. I can remember renting this game and not returning it until I beat it. The story was enthralling, the characters deep, and the gameplay was fucking addictive. The game had it all. It is one of the few games I've gone back to over the years to play, and one that I've recommended to people because of the awesome story.
