Alongside God of War III, this is one of the only games I know where the only flaw keeping it from a five-star rating is that the story is quite sparse and uninteresting — usually, the story can make up for lacklustre gameplay, but in this case, everything except for the story is pretty much perfect. I am not a big fan of the campy Hollywood action-film style of the story, and it does not really try for anything more complex than 'good guy fights bad guys'... (except for Ada, perhaps?). I do not think myself qualified to analyse gameplay on any interesting level, suffice to say I had fun and was only bored when I got lost (before someone told me I had a map... that one is on me).
