Manhunt (2003)
Genres:Shooter, Tactical
Themes:Action, Horror, Thriller, Stealth
Game modes:Single player
Story:Manhunt is a third-person stealth horror game. The game consists of twenty levels, and four bonus levels that can be unlocked; the levels are referred to as "scenes". Players survive the Scenes by dispatching enemy gang members known as "Hunters", occasionally with firearms but primarily by stealthily executing them in gruesome, over-the-top ways.
The player is rated at the end of each level, primarily dependent on the gruesomeness of the killings and the speed of completion, from one (unimpressive) to five (extremely competent) stars. Executions are preferred in order to gain a higher score, thus encouraging players to play as viscerally as possible. The game's locales are full of "dark spots" and shadows where the player can hide while being chased by the Hunters; hiding in these dark areas makes the player invisible to opponents.Show more

There will never be a game like this again, and Rockstar used a fanmade crack on Steam and it still is broken without Manhunt fixer, it needs to be preserved legally here. I have the best memories playing this, and will never forget it.
I know what a controversial game to support. Manhunt was unlike anything I played before and after. You take on many gangs brutally finishing them off. We are talking let's take Mortal Kombat fatalities but make em more realistic. You get a surprisingly decent stealth game. Some weapons you won't expect during a first playthrough. You have to do several objectives. Always expect things to suddenly get intense in the levels. This game isn't for anyone with a weak stomach. Manhunt is a game that's more on the lines of Hatred. The brutal finishers are quite disturbing to watch. There's also a challenge mode to test your skills. I will confirm you'll die a lot in this game. It's virtually an Hitman game where you aren't an assassin. At the same time, you do take out a lot of horrible people on the way. In a weird sense, a monster takes out an bigger monster logic. The reality of the situation is you never feel safe. You constantly have to adapt on the fly to survive. Especially the later levels with high difficulty spikes. I can tell you Manhunt is a game that forever changed the world. Why let such a game go into extinction? I do think this game could sell well on GOG despite many being against it's release here.
This game needs to be added to GOG mainly because Rockstar used a pirated version of the game for the Steam version upon release and only way to fix it is through fan made patches.
Banning a video game like Manhunt would set a negative precedent for freedom of artistic expression in video games. Although its content is violent, it is part of the creative vision of its developers and offers a unique, albeit controversial, experience. Adults should have the freedom to decide what type of entertainment they consume. GOG is the only platform that can properly support and preserve it for future playability and its zero censorship, ensuring this piece of video game history remains accessible and playable for those who choose to experience it

MechWarrior 2: 31st Century CombatYou are the genetically engineered Clan Mechwarrior. The Clans are invading the Inner Sphere. Join either the Wolf Clan or the Jade Falcon Clan as they pursue their own agenda against the Inner Sphere and other Clans. Take your advanced Omnimechs into battle against all comers. Win high warrior ratings (by using less mechs or smaller mechs than needed, completing secondary objectives, etc.) and you'll get chance at a promotion trial where you face superior odds in an arena. If you win, you advance in rank. If you are very successfully, you can make it all the way up to Khan, leader of the Clan!
Mechwarrior II was developed in-house by Activision as the successor to their original Mechwarrior. While this time there are no dynamic campaign and mercenary actions, the Clan culture is integrated into the two campaigns. Different clans have different mechs and different rules, even different weapons. You can customize your mechs in order to use less than the "par" force in order to get a higher rating. The full 3D environment wasn't pretty as this was before the 3D accelerators made their debut, but it's still better than anything that came before. Let addition of NetMech allowed users to fight each other online. When 3D cards came along, special versions were created to take advantage of 3D texturing. While not QUITE as replayable as Mechwarrior, it's nonetheless a classic.
If you want them now, get the Titanium Edition, which is 3D accelerated.Action Science fiction

MechWarrior 2: Arcade Combat EditionMechWarrior 2 gives you the chance to strap yourself into a 40-ton hunk of metal armed with a full arsenal of weapons and wreak havoc on a futuristic band of enemies. The game features eight brand new missions and 32 reworked versions of popular PC campaigns. At the outset of the game you can choose between the Wolf Clan and Jade Falcon squads, or opt for the "instant action" feature to jump right into the fray.
No matter which route you take, be ready for some explosive action, as every mission calls for you to destroy something. The emphasis in the PlayStation version is shoot-em-up action, but fans of the PC version will still be able to trick out their mechanical monster to their heart's content. If you love mech games or you just want to deal out some damage, then you should check this game out.Action Warfare Science fiction Sandbox
