Bring Cryostasis back!! An interesting and at times creepy relic of mid-2000's Eurojank. I remember the gameplay being quite slow but still very engaging and atmospheric. I remember this game blew my mind with its graphics of the time. This was on store fronts many years ago but seems like it was delisted due to rights issues. Would love the chance to own and play this again (legally)!

Another interesting bit of lost media that I discovered via YouTube videos, but never got the chance to play before or since. Both its atmosphere and its technical achievements with things like water effects make it seem like an impressive project for its time, and it deserves to be back on storefronts.
A game worthy of preservation, This lost gem has a unique atmosphere, combining mystery and a creepy supernatural tone. Game mechanics were fairly fresh with nice visuals

a little masterpiece that's bound to come back from the dead. The story that is told in this game, I was hooked and does not let go until now, after many years I remember about this game, and so I want others to have the opportunity to play this game, to feel the atmosphere and the emotions that it gave me once upon a time

Well while I am not familiar with the game at all and sincerely I apologize for those who have played this game and enjoyed it, however at the request of a friend, I have voted for this game. I can see from the gameplay and screenshots of why he enjoys this game and it would be cool for more people to be exposed to this game and for it to gain more traction.
People need to know this game! The atmosphere of this game is amazing, realistic sounds and the game is very immersive, please don't let this game be forgotten.
It's so unfair that this is abandonware at this point because it's a genuinely good game with a unique atmosphere. Bring it back please, so more people can discover this gem.
The game, the atmosphere, the Civvie11 video on who to blame in having it delisted. There was no reason to have this game taken down on GoG when it was available. To preserve this game would not only give me a chance to play this gem, but a reason why people like to play janky games of the past rather than trying to play catch up with every game out there in the year 2025 onwards.
Those games also need your vote!

Medal of Honor: Frontline HD
Medal of Honor: Frontline HDMedal of Honor: Frontline for PS3 is a HD remake of the classic shooter game by Dreamworks Interactive. The Nazi invasion is in full swing, and you're the Lieutenant who's going to put a stop to it. Step into the shoes of Lt. Jimmy Patterson once again, sweeping across Europe to rescue the innocent and destroy the opposition. The 15 assignments range from saving captured OSS operatives from a Nazi-held Dutch manor house to dismantling a German naval base. Of course, all of the action takes place in detailed 3D; featuring some of the more amazing graphics you'll ever lay eyes on. Your job is a little too tough for any one man to pull off on his own, so you'll have a loyal group of soldiers and a slew of weaponry including the Liberator Pistol, Panzerschreck, MG42, and B.A.R. all of which will come to your aid in the heat of battle. Divided into five main missions, the gameplay is extensive and meticulously constructed, resulting in an experience that trumps earlier series installments.

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.
