Where it Shines:
Music - 10/10
Story - 7/10
Parkour - 8/10
The Good:
This game has an amazing OST. It is a cinematic experience in it's own way too. The story, though simple, is well told. But where it really shines is in it's level design. The puzzles and platforming combined with the rewind mechanic were just a really cool innovation and spawned an entire genre of games like God of War.
The Bad:
The combat is...just bad. It's repetitive, obnoxious, and overstays it's welcome. More time needed to be spent on it.
Summary:
I have a fondness for this game, and really do hope a remake comes out like they promised. I can't say if it's aged well or not, but it still sits in my top games of all time, for now.
****note on my ratings:
half ⭐: hot trash garbage
⭐: below average, needs work
⭐⭐: average
⭐⭐⭐: pretty good
⭐⭐⭐⭐: excellent
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: all time favourite
half star ratings between those mean it's slightly better or worse than stated in this list.
