Great story and gameplay, but dated controls and graphics.
The demo was king
YOU KNOW, I quite liked the plot, I liked the way it played somewhat.
This game feels a bit obtuse at times, and the controls are kind of odd-feeling. The story is interesting, but it didn't interest me enough to like the game.
Yeah the camera is a bit weird, and the dude talks to himself even more than you would see in a parody video
BUT
The visual style has aged so well that everyone in it feels more expressive than today's Uncanny Valley Girls, and you can force-choke a guy and levitate him and unload a machine gun into his torso as a combo.

Man, what a ride! Really enjoyed playing this game a lot, especially with playing around with the psychic powers. The story was what made me want to keep playing this game because it’s very intriguing and has a lot of mystery to it and unravels the more you progress in the game. There was also a twist reveal later in the story that caught me off guard and actually surprised me when I thought I already figured out before then. Besides the psychic powers and puzzle-solving, the shooting gameplay was also fun. The gameplay and the controls were surprisingly smooth and easy to handle, especially with a Gamcube controller, with only a few minor design flaws that could use more fine-tuning. I’m glad I bought this game thanks to the story that got me invested the whole way through.
