Solid collectathon. Fairly easy to 100%. Not nearly as visually impressive as the sequels, but the art direction is strong and the animation in particular holds up really well. Music is pleasant enough, but not particularly memorable for me. The PS3 version is not 100% accurate. For instance, the specular effects on some precursor structures are missing. It's relatively minor stuff, though, and there are also improvements over the PS2 version, such as increased LoD and texture filtering. Also, the performance is basically flawless. If you're willing to switch to SD resolution from the system menu you can play in the original 4:3 aspect ratio, which has a higher field of view. Had a good time, would recommend.
