Psi-Ops still suffers from baffling design decisions and is an ultimately short-lived experience. Unfortunately, boasting the most well-developed psychic brain in action (a brain that's even better than those of the super-powered Jedi in games of a similar nature) doesn't imply perfection within the genre. It's a game that necessitates the use of its initially gimmicky psionic slant, but also provides gamers the option to approach situations with a little more finesse than its mundane competitors would.

Well, probably a bit of both, but I am enjoying seeing the latter experiment with what and doesn't work.
