Exploring them felt extremely rewarding to me - very often I noticed an opening or ledge that seemed unreachable, but eventually discovered a way to get there and found a collectible.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
58 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The atmosphere is incredible and at times truly disturbing, even with N64 graphics.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There are no boring expositions, and the story overall is great and succinct, with a nice twist near the end.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Your attention to details and layout is rewarded with powers that prolong your life, affect your weapons, and open up previously locked parts of the level.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The sound design is excellent, but sometimes background tracks and ambient sounds fade into the line reads in weird ways.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game handles a controller well (god knows how they crammed this thing onto an N64 cartridge, but it *was* there at some point) but not perfectly---I had to remap lock on away from the shoulder buttons because the triggers next to them are how you shoot and I only have so many fingers.
