Character customisation is extensive and the ability of Jay, the main pro(an)tagonist, to hack his own avatar and generate his own customised class is unique and enjoyable.

I've had a blast playing this in the past and I'm looking forward to a replay once Reboot Initiative is ready to go, the new art style and enhanced atmosphere and mapping look great, and I know Ross - the main developer - has been busting his ass on the trilogy so far :) I do have to question the two negative reviews below, however, as they seem highly unfair.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

The soundtrack complements this approach with atmospheric tracks that reinforce the digital, slightly melancholic tone of the world, even if it rarely pushes beyond ambient support into memorable standout pieces.
