Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It's really a shame there aren't more games with this perfectly refined gameplay; intricate enough to be infinitely interesting and different every time, yet also simplified to the point where anyone can jump in and never feel out of place amongst your computer-controlled teammates that you'll fight and die alongside.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Yes there are a few modern things that I miss and the graphics could do with an overhaul, but considering it is now 15 years old, and it still provides a challenge, and more importantly loads of fun, I see very little reason not to relive our childhoods playing this Legendary title once more.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The maps are large, diverse, and faithful to the films, and the sound design and music help sell the experience.
