To this day, it's about the closest thing I've experienced to a perfect video game.

From its tense, thrilling action to its rich atmosphere, from its glorious B-movie camp to its pitch-perfect pacing, it's just a masterclass in pure entertainment, delivering a constant stream of dopamine and adrenaline.
