Story

79 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story and the way it's presented lends itself to that lone action hero approach much better than it does to a secret agent approach.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I loved the older SC games, but this type of gameplay works too.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
TLDR: Get this game on console instead if you can you have access to coop, better controller scheme, and no DRM unlike this horrible port on PC.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sam himself can carry two weapons, one being a sidearm with unlimited ammo, such weapon with supressor will be helpful in stealth scenario aswell as in combat, and primary weapon, it being a shotgun, submachine gun or an assault rifle of your choosing.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics are very good for it's time and they hold up today as well.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Voice acting is still fantastic, with Micheal Ironside still giving all he got as Sam.
