a great and smooth robot arena combat from the ps2 days. also came with a great soundtrack option from real bands. and now i am filling out more words because I was to concise.
The game that introduced me to the mech genre. Ever since playing this game I’ve been left with an insatiable thirst for more mech games. Very fluid and fast paced gameplay for its time.
This was one of my top 5 Ps2 games i've ever owned. It's gotten me through rough periods of my life when i was younger and this game sparked so much inspiration from me. I was sad to hear that Konami unplugged the multi-player servers i was really bummed, but hearing a possible chance to connect with other people with this game sounds like a dream i thought would have never been true if you asked me when i was 12 years old.

In a world where reboots are drowning us all, the best games are simply forgotten. As with many ps2 games, they really did a lot of special things with this one. The mechanics are different, the story is unique and deep, the world created is immersive and fun! So many have tried to make a mech game that works/sells, and this was their example all along. Oh, to see a modern version in UE5!

I'm just happy to know about this game. I saw a poster of it on the wall of a lan house / game store and some time after I wanted to play it, the poster was not there anymore, but the store owner still remembered the poster and the game. Hidden gem.
That's probably my first mecha game ever (or my first mecha in PS2), I wish get this on PC. I loved spending hours and hours playing it alone against the AI ​​(thinking they were people, I was a kid haha), I would love to relive those moments.

Great gameplay, cool interface. It allowed cool customization of mechs that were not available before, being able to have a smaller/faster mech and larger/tankier ones was cool. The battles were super fun in pacing, just a completely underrated gem.
SLAI is a masterpiece which deserves to be preserved, and needs to be brought back for a sequel. Konami once again does not fully utilize their intellectual property
I had fond memories of this game although I havent finished it. Wish it comes to PC so we can all enjoy it to the fullest! SLAI was my childhood dream come true aside from GTA SA. BRING THIS TO PC!
This is my childhood game for life. Even got to know my favorite band as well from this game, which is Zebrahead. Maybe for some this doesn't tantamount to famous titles back in the day, but for me this game has a special place in my heart, and will always be.

The game centers on a campaign narrative that gives the player a variety of roles in the allied forces ranging from a Marine Infantry, tank commander, Special Forces and helicopter captain.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
RollerCoaster TycoonThe premise of the game is to complete a series of preset scenarios by successfully building and maintaining amusement parks through business ownership as a theme park entrepreneur. The key to any park is building a large amount and diverse range of rides for the visitors. Players can choose from dozens of roller coaster types and can also build log flumes, carousels, bumper cars, haunted houses, go karts, ferris wheels, and swinging ships, among other rides. The intensity and type of rides must be balanced, as visitors' preferences vary significantly from person to person. For example, some guests prefer exciting rides and have high nausea tolerance levels, while other guests are just the opposite.

Grand Prix 3
Grand Prix 3Grand Prix 3 (GP3) is a computer racing simulator by MicroProse. Released in 2000 by Hasbro Interactive featuring the 1998 Formula One season (with all drivers except Jacques Villeneuve, who is instead replaced by a fictional character, John Newhouse). The game wasn't quite as well received as its predecessors, but at the time was widely considered to be the best racing simulation available. An add-on to the game, called GP3-2000 or GP32k, was released by Hasbro which updated the game to the 2000 Formula One season. A few other changes were made as well including: updated damage physics including damage from on-circuit debris, improved AI, a new replay system, and EAX 3D-sound. Since the release of Grand Prix 4, the GP3 modding scene has slowly declined, and with the cracking of track editing for GP4 many track modders left GP3 for the newer title.
