While I can see why many people see this as a great game, I can't bring myself to say it's a good game. I like certain aspects of the game, like the graphics which are fantastic for the time. This game seems dedicated to immersion, but that immersion was constantly shattered by the utterly stupid enemy AI. The AI in this game has no sense of self-preservation and just charge at you all while being able to shoot you with pinpoint accuracy through a jungle where I can't see them at all, they can even hit me through walls like there is no wall there at all, dealing with them is almost always a huge chore and nothing about it feels remotely immersive. Another thing that breaks immersion is the guns, which are mirrored so that the shell casings are ejected to the left instead of the right, I personally find this extremely distracting and confusingly stupid. The last thing that breaks the game for me is the repetition, I never beat this game for a reason, that reason being that the game never introduced anything new or interesting to me after playing for over 13 hours, it just became dull with no plot or anything to keep me interested in the game.
