this game had it´s moments back when it was originally published, and it still has.
okay, the textures are a bit "wobbly", the thugs, your enemies, often seem to have the same parents (they look like twins and SOUND identical..) which did not matter "back then", but today it´s noticeable..
but the game´s greatest flaw - the difficulty level - which is absolutely HORRID espacially in the beginning thanks to it´s touch of "role-playing-style" inventory and equipment management (yes, you HAVE to buy yourself a weapon and some ammo; YES, you can interakt with the NPCs..) - CAN turn out to be it´s greatest advantage. once you´ve earned enough money and reached the "breaking point", the game develops a certain flow without you dying every 4 seconds. that´s when the fun begins - after several hours of dying and reloading your way out of the starting area...
if you like playing the bad guy who´s out for revenge, give this game a try. (*die/reload* and a second *die/reload* and a third,...)
