When the game first released I saw people complaining about all kinds of things about the game. One of them was lack of story (like the original games had alot of background story). Really there's a ton of story in it. You just have to read the fucking PDAs. Judging by the bitches, gripes, and complaints I've read over the past few years, I'd have to say that people who hate the game hate it because it wasn't EXACTLY what they expected. They jumped in, rushed through the game, snap-judging everything.
When I first played it, I crawled through the game, read every piece of information I could find. You pick up little bits and pieces of story as you go along. And the story actually evolves better than alot of movies. In the beginning you know little more than it's a scientific experiment gone wrong. Later you learn more about what they were actually doing down there, inter-dimensional travel. As you get into the Delta Labs part of the game you have a pretty good idea that they accidentily opened a Portal into Hell but there's an underlying piece of the puzzle: the artifact dig, which is merely mentioned but you know it's got to be connected to the story. Later you find out how, and after you return from Hell and you get into the site you really start to learn alot, especially in that first level in the maintenence area. And those ruins levels are some of the creepiest shit I've ever seen.
ALLS I'm sayin is, they could've made that into a great movie.
