The design aged poorly
Perhaps back in its day it was interesting, but nowadays it falls short on many levels. First of all, there is no explanation at all who you are and what you are doing. I know this game is based on a comic book, but I dont know nothing beyond that. It takes away from the setting as I have no context for what is happening. Not even environmental storytelling. The environment and sound part are alright for a game its age, nothing more. That leaves only the gameplay to carry this title. It has mainly 2 sides to it. The combat and traversal/platforming. I didnt play too long, but the combat wasnt particularly satisfying. The fighting areas were usually small and narrow and even when you were in larger areas you could usually knock the enemies out before they noticed you. Enemies also constantly respawn, which forces you to keep moving, since otherwise they will consume your ammo. This makes it difficult to properly search through areas and navigate levels. Since this was designed as a console game it incorporates a fair bit of traversal mechanics you could see in platformers. Jumping through obstacles, climbing walls, finding hidden paths. They are fine, but usually simple and given all the previously mentioned shortcomings, dont really do anything to elevate the game. There is also a system of upgrades and you can gather collectibles that adds lives. But the final straw in all of this is the level design. It is pretty long and often confusing. In order to progress you need to find key fragments in different levels to unlock further levels. I usually try to check everything, but when I saw I missed a certain fragment and that meant going through the level again from the beginning I knew I needed to have good long thought of whether it is worth it. And as it turns out, it really isnt. I think this title was fine as a console game way back in its day, but today it falls short in too many areas. You are much better off trying out other games.
