Story:
Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. 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.

It is an absolute tragedy that this game remains as abandonware. I consider the first 4 SH games outstanding, but SH3 was the first I played and was so influential. One of the most terrifying experiences across all horror media. It also showed me the surreal and artistic side of horror. A top 10 game of all time for me. Making this accessible to all would be a smart move for GOG. JoyVisions

While I am VERY lucky to own a Physical Copy of this game on PC DVD, not many people will come across a copy of it easily or for a good price. This game is genuinely one of my favourite games ever released, and I would LOVE for people to experience it for the first time.

Incredible story, graphics that have aged very well (at least for me), unforgettable soundtrack and lots of easter eggs. This game deserves a lot. It's super fun to replay and delve deeper into the story! The PC version of the game is actually decent, considering it's a game from 2003. And it definitely deserves to be preserved forever on the GOG platform with some improvements!

An excellent follow-up to Silent Hill 2 by almost every metric! Such a wonderful continuation upon the first game’s plot on top of a great soundtrack too! With there being an official PC version, this game along with its predecessors would be among the best preservation efforts to be made! Not just for the hardcore Silent Hill fans but newcomers like myself who want to see these games in their original forms reach a wider audience. With the remake of Silent Hill 2 really bringing the franchise back into focus, this feels like a no-brainer!

I knew Silent Hill 3 was special from the moment I heard the opening track (You're Not Here) while playing it for the first time on the PS2. Silent Hill 3 does such a great job with its atmosphere and characters, and the visuals are still stunning to this day. Bashing monsters and getting emotional over the journey was a one of a kind experience, and I can safely say: "Don’t you think blondes have more fun?"

This game was my introduction to the series in my distant childhood. I remember admiring the graphics of the time and being scared by the ordinariness and alienation of that shopping center from the beginning of the game. This game has always held a special place in my heart.

The resell price for this game is truly insane. Getting hands on this game is obscenely difficult. Preserving this game would free people from *needing* to buy this game used, allowing for a cheaper cost making it more available to more people

Silent Hill 3 snuck up on me. It switches from the cgi cutscenes to all in engine and damn if they dont still look really good. The combat is improved, the story is fantastic. Genuinely a really underrated entry in the series. People like it but i dont think people really think about just how good it is.

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.
