Fear Effect - PS1

I really, really want to like this game. The cel shaded graphics and animated background look great and the game has great atmosphere. However, the control sucks really, really, really bad. I'm fine with Resident Evils tank controls, but this is a whole 'nother level of antiquated. Normally a game could get away with this but here I'm actually expected to roll around, dodge and with some actual precision. I'm on the first mission and I've already died like 100 times. Turn corner, realize I need a gun and not the knife, desperately try and dodge(but fail, caught on scenery) while cycling through items looking for my gun. Ugh. Then it loads again every single time. It's very unforgiving with the collision detection. Died three times trying to walk around the fire after that helicopter attacks. Died twice because I can't shoot that exploding steam barrel thing from a distance. I have to be right against it, but not too close or it kills me
I hope this is something I can get used to but I'm like 40 minutes into this and still sucking ass at it.
