A few thoughts (Gaming)
It had a ton of style and the running was fairly well done, but as the levels shifted towards combat it became tedious. Do everything exactly right and it could be awesome. Mess up even slightly and you'd get hit in the face with a rifle then machineguned to death. Over and over. From a checkpoint that put you right back a few yards from that guy. Also, it was a little short and some people didn't like the "flash animation" cutscenes.
Ultimately, it probably impressed more with its setting and look and gameplay than it... actually sold. Wikipedia says 2.5 million as of 2013. True, it got a sequel prequel reboot? but did that do well?
