I might have played it for a total of 7 hours. The game is rather short and I finished it in two sessions. The textures of the environments like the floors and walls were the only thing that were noticeably bad. I feel like the graphics, notably the character designs, hold up really well and probably are a bit better than par for it's time. The game features the likeness and voice acting of Rosario Dawson and Brian Cox who are both great in this. The story is a bit paper thin with the lore of the world being fleshed out through collectibles.
However, the more I played it the more it reminded me of every other sci fi movie ever and started to feel a bit generic. I thought the world was very cool and reminded me a lot of things like Bladerunner or The Fifth Element. The tone of the game is very dark with plenty of suicide, executions, and civilians being murdered in cold blood which contrasts the bright, cyberpunk aesthetic of this particular dystopia. The guns are a blast to use, notably the mini gun, guass rifle, and laser cannon that I forget the name of. The guns have a real weight to them and the sound design is on point. By the end I felt the shooting felt great. I thought the shooting felt clunky at first but after a level or two you really get the hang of it. It allowed some creative freedom which kept the gameplay fresh throughout. It wasn't simply activate power, shoot everyone, move through level. Timing it out to perfectly use with your other abilities was a much more satisfying experience that actually made you use some brain power. It has a feature that's a bit like a combination of the drug in Haze and the slowdown effect in Timeshift. Often times games will throw a bunch of mechanics at you that never really mesh together and this wasn't the case. Combining your moves works together really well and creates a very satisfying experience. It has these applications you can use to influence the actions of the enemies which makes the game stand out and keeps it from getting generic. I actually thought this game was a lot of fun and really well made. I actually I went into this game very skeptical thinking it was going to be incredibly generic and terrible but I was pleasantly surprised.
