I enjoy it immensely on my 54-inch HD screen, even though parts of it creep me out considerably. My wife enjoys it as a spectator sport. I often find I have to take a break due to the tension, and she's all "but you're doing so well".
I am still trying to break the conditioning that years of "you only have so many lives, so don't get killed" has instilled. Only when I get reckless do I find myself actually getting a rush out of the gameplay. (I have it on PlayStation, so unfortunately I cannot install a patch to let me lock the Big Chap in the vents while I go over
every bloody detail of the environment to see all the cool stuff they packed in.)
Work of art? Yessir, you have my vote!
(Man, I really need to go play this again.)
