I completed it once (good ending) and although I enjoyed it, I was left with a hollow feeling after all the endless promises and hype that were made. I found myself taking the easy option of tooling up with guns and offensive plasmids to blast my way through because I wanted to see the story, but the gameplay (outside of certain set-pieces) was so repetitive. The reliance on vending machines was very much an irritation of mine, especially for weapons upgrades...
How many reviews gave this 95% or more I have no idea, I'd give this about 80% at most.
I would love to think that in the future, games producers could keep it under their hats until they know what they'll be selling, rather than making empty promises. (For another rant of this nature, ask me about oblivion!)
