I can't describe how walking out into the market in Hong Kong made me feel. The drab and claustrophobic helicopter base opening up into this sprawling market in an alien land...

So, I'm exaggerating a bit, but still. They hit this tone just right, and the graphics were good enough that you could let your imagination fill in the blanks. You really felt like you were part of this complicated living, breathing world, and you were the only one who could save it. Fantastic.
