Brilliant visuals (even now, in 2024), atmospheric level design, great build up of tension, good gameplay.... but for some backward-ass reason we can't skip cutscenes... Think I've reinstalled this game like 4 times, itching to play through it on madhouse (hard difficulty) but I give up almost immediately - I shouldn't have to sit through 5 whole minutes of unskippable babble just to have another go at a boss fight.... it's maddening! wtf were they thinking...?

Anyway, good for one playthrough - on normal
