This game is legit one of the first PC games I've ever played and my aunt got me into this series from this game. I actually have fond memories of this game and I hope this game can find it's way to GOG so I can relive these memories.
Have you ever played a game that perfectly captures a vibe of an era that you were alive for but you have only vague memories of? That is something The Sims 2 does strangely well capturing this 2000's vibe that makes me feel Nostalgic for an Era I... Wasn't really all that there for... Like Sims 2 just has this Nostalgic vibe to that hits me in all the right areas even if I have more probable nostalgia for Sims 3. It still be worth adding on GOG so more people get these 2000's vibes.

This is one of my favorite video games ever. It improves on everything in The Sims 1. My parents bought the double deluxe version when I was a kid and we all played the heck out of it.
One of my fav comfy games back in the day and in my view the one with the most heart and soul put into it and seeing EA doing the absolute bare minimum to make the sims 1 and 2 "play" on modern hardware while only really adding denuvo of all things in the steam version really grinds my gears....The sims 2 deserve much much better than that and i hope if Gog ever picks this up they put better care on makeing this game play nice with newer machines so old and new fans can enjoy this without haveing to wrangle with a bunch of files and fanfixes to get it to even run. If they do all of that then i can't wait to relive the comfyness that this classic offers and with better respect and care that it deserves. EDIT: apologies was wrong about the denuvo part it was for the sims 4 dlc not 2
That was my firsts TS game. I played with a bunch of annoying people that I cut ties with but the game itself is good. I won't say that it's the best game that exists, far from it, but deffinitely, from my experience, it's the best TS between them all (I didn't play a lot od TS1 so I can't truelly evalluate it but between TS2, TS3 AND TS4, it's the best, deffinitelly). I love thsi game, both because of it's imprevisibility and challenges and because if it's story telling possibilities and fun. ^^ I lvoed to create all sort of stories, all sorts of stores and all sorts of sims and see the crazy things and dynamics that would happen betweeen sims and the hidden stories in the game. It was a fun time. ^^

O primeiro The sims que joguei no pc e simplesmente o melhor que existe, DLC boas, humor perfeito, gameplay divertida e gráficos perfeitos, esse foi o ultimo The Sims que foi feito com amor.
This game is still one of the best ever. Each expansion pack that was released was fully incorporated into each neighborhood, so there are no limitations to playing where you want to play or with what. The new version (Sims 4) is literally limited to whatever is released is limited to the neighborhood it was released with. The Sims 2 is just a great experience to this day - an actual true game that you can relax with.

The Sims 2 is probably the best of all of the Sims games to date. I've played them since the beginning and still enjoy the current Sims 4 games but would love to have this on GOG. This would really transport us back to the peak of Sims gaming!

It's hard to really say what makes it special. What makes the Mona Lisa special? Or what is so particular about the Eiffel tower? Or the old Die Hard movies? This game released barely more than 20 years ago, yet we can already call it a relic from a bygone era, when video games were passion projects, and labors of love. It was a simpler time, where smaller teams of dedicated, talented individuals made games that they wanted to play themselves, and weren't burdened by sales targets, excessive monetization and ideological intrusions in both their creative works and daily lives. My childhood was in Sims 2. Any successive sims games from that I just waved off dismissively with zero interest in anything that came after, and I really can't say why. I just didn't care much for them. Maybe it was feature bloat, or maybe DLC spam, either way, number two is the one I got stuck with... until the original CD I purchased it on was no longer usable and a replacement was nowhere to be found.

Valkyria Chronicles 2
Valkyria Chronicles 2Valkyria Chronicles 2 is a sequel to the critically acclaimed tactical RPG Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3, which was released exclusively on the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system. The game takes place two years after the conclusion of the original game and takes you back to the epic adventure set in 1930’s fictitious Europe. In this sequel, you play as a group of young Gallian Military Academy cadets who find themselves plunged into a bitter civil war when the newly formed Gallian Revolutionary Army stages a coup. As the drama and battle unfold, you will experience stories of friendship, love and growing pains during a time of war and revolution. The 'CANVAS' engine originally developed by SEGA Game Studios Japan for Valkyria Chronicles has been fully redesigned for the PSP system. This incredibly distinctive engine will power over 20 new distinct and visually stunning environments where you will have over 200 different missions to explore. For the first time ad-hoc Versus and Co-op multiplayer gameplay will now be available. The 'BLiTZ' battle system has also been re-designed to offer players the freedom to strategically move around the environment and attack enemies using real-time controls, something never before seen in the tactical role-playing game genre. This game adds some new unit classes and the ability to upgrade or change classes. It also changes the battle system to include multiple map areas that are unlocked as you take over enemy bases revealing more of the battlefield and allowing you to call units into that area.

Gunvalkyrie
GunvalkyrieGunvalkyrie is an alternate history/science fiction video game developed by Smilebit and published by Sega for the Microsoft Xbox. Originally developed for the Sega Dreamcast, its visual style was very similar to the final Xbox version. The Dreamcast version's distinguishing feature was that during the game's development, GunValkyrie utilized a unique control scheme using both a light gun and a controller. This control scheme was dropped when development shifted to the Xbox version. The gameplay is very different from most third-person shooters, due to a unique dual analog control scheme, which is the main contributor to the steep learning curve of the game. Players travel to various worlds investigating the disappearance of several colonies, with only giant mutated insect creatures left behind. These insects comprise the bulk of the enemies you face along the way. Players control Kelly or Saburouta with both analog sticks, the left controlling forward/backward movement and turning, while the right aims their weapons, and when clicked, allows quick-turns. Clicking in the left stick while pointing in a direction causes the character to boost. The left trigger is a boost/jump, and when combined with the left analog boost, can be strung together into combos to keep the player off the ground entirely, which is a necessity for some levels. Face buttons are used to select weapons, and the right trigger fires the selected weapon. The game comprises ten levels, the story unfolding via text between levels, or the occasional in-game cutscene. At the beginning of most levels, excluding boss battles, you have the choice of picking either Kelly or Saburouta. Kelly's primary weapon is fast but weaker, and she's overall faster and more maneuverable. Saburouta is slower, has more limited maneuverability in the air, and carries a stronger primary weapon, the Matchlock Cannon. Basically the two characters make up the two difficulty settings, with Kelly being the "Normal", and Saburouta being the "Advanced" setting. The real difference being that Kelly's style allowed several lock-on targets, while Saburouta's weapon splashed and was aimed at specific targets. Because of this, Kelly's gameplay is more frantic and requires less direct focus, while Saburota required specific aiming and direct attacks to be effective. Kelly is also the only character to upgrade her gearskin. The artistic style of the game is similar to the steampunk subgenre of fiction, but the game's designers prefer to call it "elec-punk," described as a step even further, with the harnessing of electricity for imaginative new uses. The game's stages are divided into indoor mechanical looking levels, with lots of gears and ornate metalwork, and outdoor stages, set in very organic looking valley's, craters, and other fantastic otherworldly locations.

Monster Hunter
Monster HunterMonster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises. Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.

Resident Evil Zero
Resident Evil ZeroResident Evil Zero is a third-person survival horror video game and a prequel to the first Resident Evil. The gameplay remains largely the same as previous entries in the series but also introduces what it calls a partner zapping system, which allows you to switch between the two characters Rebecca and Billy at any time. This feature must be used at times, as the game requires both characters to work together to solve some puzzles. New to the game are a bunch of terrifying enemies, like the mutant centipede, new areas to explore, and the ability to drop items on the ground instead of having to find an item box.
