...the demo really turned me off because of the mouse input problems that I was having.
In all honesty, I was also being an ass because it used the 'Lith engnie.
Now, after having beat the game, I consider it one of the best FPS games that I have ever played. It looked nice, was very unique, was more than mindless shooting, had secrets/optional routes, lasted more than a few hours, was full of colorful characters, and the gameplay varied from level to level.
The mouse input is still an issue for me (I experience it to some level with all 'lith games, must be something with how they set it up), but I recommend it to all fans of the genre. I easily hold it up there with Half-Life, Deus Ex, Thief, and System Shock.
NOLF really shows that the 'Lith engine can be used for a great many things, not to mention how much they have improved the engine since then...
Going to be pre-ordering my Gamecube on Monday :),
