Oni was an incredible game - way ahead of similar titles in the genre like the mindless Max Payne. It had eye-popping graphics, a great combat system, and a very unique storyline and superb weapons balance, all of which are notorious traits of most Bungie games. (The [color=white]Mercury Bow,[/color] baby -YEE-uh!)
The story was very compelling, lacking the cheese and bland taste, making room for the excellent in-game cinematics and voice-overs and original artwork! The story was actually inspired by Masamune Shirow's Ghost in the Shell, and features the voice of Amanda Winn Lee as Konoko, who also did Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion - for those of you fellow otakus out there.
The game certainly has it's moments - both memorable and slightly frustrating, but satisfying through-and-through. I've played through it 3+ times on PC, and i doubt the PS2 experience is any lesser. You won't regret anything about it's purchase. Good Luck!
