So first of all the Steam version sucks and crashes every time you tab out, but that's by the by. As a game there's a lot to love here, but there's also some significant stuff (mostly one big thing) holding it back somewhat. Obviously the main big points here are the look and gameplay. Lookwise, it's absolutely gorgeous. I'm not really a believer in good graphics being a necessity, but when a game looks this great its hard to deny, both graphically and stylistically very strong stuff. In terms of the gameplay, specifically the freerunning, it's really easy to get to grips with and very fun to get right. When things go well it just flows in a very satisfying way, which is definitely one of the best parts of the game. However, there is an element of gameplay that definitely holds things back, that being the combat. Anytime there's a section with people with guns where you can't just run away it really stunts the game's momentum. I much prefer the freerunner enemies (especially in their initial introduction where you are chased by them through basically a training ground to escape) than just being suddenly ambushed by a bunch of big gun henchmen and forced to fight back. The story is pretty basic, it wasn't really one I invested in at all but it didn't take away from things for me. In fact I think I remembered most of the story beats from watching videos of it about 10 years ago, so none of it came as a big surprise unfortunately. Overall a good, sometimes great game. Disappointing thinking about what happened with this later on, then again, better to just not think about.
