There is a scene in this game where Jackie, the main character, goes to his girlfriend's apartment. The two of them lie on the couch together, and you, the player, can watch the entirety of To Kill A Mockingbird with her. In such a violent game, it's an intimate moment that stands out and has never left my mind. That's why this game deserves to be preserved.
"I remember the night of my 21st birthday, That was the first time I died."
It's one of my all-time favorite games, and it definitely deserves a good remaster and re-release on PC and modern consoles.
The story in this game hooks me very much, the characters feel alive, Mike Patton's voice acting is fantastic, and almost every NPC here speaks in a very flavorful voice, I'm still impressed. The scene where you're just chillin' with your girlfriend on her couch and watching a FULL movie of To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the most touching scenes in the game.
There is a lot of attention to detail that makes for a unique gaming experience. There's also an amazing licensed soundtrack that you can listen to on in-game TV. I can talk about this game for hours, and replay it many times. I love it, a lot.
This game is one of the first games I played when I got my PS3 back in the day. It was also one of the few games my dad watched me play and he LOVED it. So did I! I think of this game surprisingly often. It's so cool and unique. Even though I played it so long ago, I haven't forgotten it.
I played The Darkness II a lot in my childhood and very fun game. The gameplay with demonic tendrils were superb and wanted more but the first game wasn't on the PC. I want it to have it on this platform.
Always remember this game fondly as it felt very unique at the time so to have it on PC preserved and finally available for everyone to play would honestly be amazing!
This original game had some of the most memorable set pieces of any game out there. The "hell" segments that takes place in an other-worldly battlefield are like being inside of a Zdzisław Beksiński painting. The visuals in general were also great and in my opinion greatly exceed the cell-shaded art style of the sequel.
One of the best games on the PS3, was a really unqiue style at the time and had a cool story.
Sadly forgotten but i want this back due to how beloved it is by me and the people around me.
I haven't actually played this title yet, I'm keen but I've played the second title and its crazy fun! I can imagine this title will be as great as the second, plus I'd would really like and prefer to play this title and "The Darkness II" on GOG, that would awesome.

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
