Honestly it holds up pretty well and is pretty impressive for the time, even though the controls are... something, and a lot of missions are just go around the dark maze that you can barely call level-design and find/kill something, and the weapons are hilariously unbalanced (the Kurosawa is infamous, but I beat the game on a four-leg with the machine gun arms (not the gatling), the beam cannon shoulder that has 80 ammo and does stupid damage, and the shoulder machine gun, and that build shredded). I get out of it with the feeling that I'm glad I played this even if it wasn't always great, and that's a good sign

Would put an affectionate 6/10 but that dogshit last mission docks it a point wtf was that
