This brings me back memories of what it means to dream of a game you can`t have, haven`t had the money for a gamecube or any console at the time, but all of the people playing on youtube made me fall in love with this game. Would be a dream come true for a rogue squadron fan to play this game at last. Thank you Factor 5 for making it. And Thank you gog for even trying to make it become a reality.

I remember sending the wing mates off to do whatever while I did the mission objectives, but as a kid playing this off big screen tv, trying to keep the volume low when trying to sneak in more playing time at night or early in the morning...good times, would love to see this brought back on GOG.

Everyone who dreamed of controlling one of the many scifi-vehicles appearing in the original trilogy will love this game. Hovering over the snow-dunes of Hoth or race through the lush jungles of Endor on an imperial speeder-bike. Though 30 years old the graphics are still tunning. An action-game every Star Wars fan can play with simple controls, different levels and catching story.
I played the first installment in a N64, it was love at first gameplay. The second one was probably the best star wars game I have ever played, besides the RPGs. Fun, immersive and nostalgic, a masterpiece ahead of it's time.
This was, and still is, by far the best star wars space combat game ever created, which highlights the horrible fact that it is still stuck in the GameCube. Factor 5 made one of the greatest games of all time. Fighting the two star destroyers long with the rest of the Rebel Fleet at Endor is still a feeling I have yet to experience in any other game.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the PatriotsMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the final canonical Metal Gear game to feature Solid Snake as the main character. The gameplay of the previous games have been kept along with some new features, such as the ability to roll on your back and also to hide in bins scattered around the environment. Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.

Freelancer
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.
