Yeah only problem I see with it is the gameplay stuff like the restricted view and lack of map indicators. Any criticism of the in game FMV seems a bit mean when this came out the same year as Wing Commander which had a budget of $12m which was extreme at the time and was the sequel in a very popular game franchise. I'd be surprised if this had more than a couple of million all in for everything Game and FMV included.

The game itself, the bizarre camera / graphics / low-texture-low-poly early PS1 nature, and the insane enemies and design in general, mixed with the off-the-wall hyperactive over-editing and the truly maddening decision to have two guys go back and forth every single sentence off a script for the narration, plus the fact that one of those guys is putting every iota of his strength into this cartoonishly extreme over-acting voice, all combines as I watch this in the middle of the night to make me feel I'm well and truly losing my goddamn mind.

I think the designers were trying to mimic Paul Verhoeven with the fake commercials and what not.
