It's a classic. If you liked the original game, you'll love playing through this version as well in its current state. I played on patch 1.04, and many of the things people complained about at release have been fixed.
As someone who played this game several times on PS2, then played the PS2->PS4 game years later, this version is easily the best way to play the game on a Sony console. It looks so much better than the PS2->PS4 version, and it runs much better as well. The gunplay is also much improved.
I do hope they keep patching and improving this game to get it in its best possible state, though. I played the PS4 version on my PS5 since it was free through PS Now, but I plan to play the PS5 version when the price comes down and when they (hopefully) iron out the framerate issues with that version. The PS4 version ran great on a PS5, though.
