Great fast paced game!
The cell shading-like graphics can look great, especially in explosions. And the blue light, that travel down Jehuty's body once in while, is sweet! The game also has some nice enemy, character and machine designs.
The cut scenes are few and drawn in a Japanese style. Only the real human characters are drawn, "outside", with all the robots, things are normal graphics.
The story is all right, Hideo's genius shine though, and it all gives a MGS-feel to the story, dialog, and a little to the cut scenes
The game play is fast, very fast. You'll be fighting your way through a massive amount of robots, and some boss battles. You quickly stop caring about the graphics and just focus on keeping your head cool! After the biggest of your encounters, you have little idea what happened! Your "instincts" take over.
Good game and it is really cheap now a days...
