Borrowed from a friend to see this praised game.
When I saw the graphics, I was like "WHAT THE HELL?!"
Checked the release date: OMG 2004, really?
The graphics are easily comaparable with shooters we ecnounter nowadays: like Modern Warfare, for example.
Apart from great graphics: gameplay is awesome, it sucks you deeply inside and won't let go. Not to mention the whole 'open-world' thing, which is just awesome, you can pass most missions in a variety of ways.
Story is good, but nothing omg awesome.
Graphics 10/10, Sound 8/10, Story 8/10, Immersion 12/10, Gameplay 10/10 and I'd say that for 10 bucks...
well, I can get it in Poland for 5 bucks... but without the redownloadability :| so I'll stick with GoG
