Amazing game, truly one of the best demigod simulators, much better than Prototype 2. I wish GoG would sell us this game, fully optimized for modern hardware, it is a game that many people of both newer and older generations would enjoy playing to this day.
There's nothing else like this game even in 2025. It's one of the games that give you a total power trip and let's you wreak havoc uninterrupted. It was surprisingly deep for it's time. There were many ways to approach missions. Different powers allowed you to engage enemies in different ways. There was a stealth option. The story was good. Only the best memories about this game. Wish I could experience it again.
I would like this game to be on GOG since the Steam version can´t run anymore due to some compatibility issues, It´s a really cool open world game and I would like to revisit it once more if this ever comes out on GOG, please guys, make it happen. :D

Very fun arcade beat'em all where you can jump from a rooftop right onto a tank to blow it up, or taking a more subtle approach by absorbing and impersonating the tank pilot
I love this game, its old but it holds a simpler times whenever I play it. I love it was a spider man game when at the time the spider man games that were out were either eh or bad, except shatter dimensions and webs of shadows, but this game was a great sub from the void of no spider man games.
Playing it on I men on my xbox 360 what my dad everyday wan I came out of school I wrote play prototype I loved it so mushigituguf7guvhvyvycrfhfnbvnvhvhvhchvucjuijijgyùhu7768yuyjhyuhttcfgvycyh65757gugivhvigigugugih higogogig8gigif8guyuuuuuuu7uuuuuuuiiiiiiuuuuuuuihuuyyyyhhhjhuiioiioii7uiuuuuuu67uuhhjuuu7777uuuytgiu9uhu7uhubihuhj7h8hihigugjukujhonuhjhibunujojohioihohuhjuj8u0hkonkljoho8jij9jihuhugih8h8hih9

One of my favourite games back in my teenager years (2009, 2010, 2011) alongside Dragon Age 2 and Mafia 2, I really wanted to play this again but it seems unplayable for modern PCs. Definitely should be here on GoG, this or the possible remake of this game!

I played it when I was a kid, unfortunately I can't play it anymore since it's not allowed in Germany. I wish there was a platform I could buy this in. Lovely game, definitely my favourite.

Absolutly adore this game. I bought an real lambskin leather mercer jacket back in highschool and I still keep it part of my regular wardrobe. Wish the PC port wasnt a disaster but i at least I own it physically on 360 so its not totally lost to time.
Those games also need your vote!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
