Themes:Action, Comedy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Although Redmond (the rabbit) and Spanx (the weasel) are two animals chained together, the gameplay is much like any other platformer. The player controls only Spanx, using Redmond as a weapon or tool as the situation requires. Spanx has most standard platforming abilities, while Redmond is completely indestructible as a result of tests conducted upon him and so can be hurled into security guards, jammed into machinery, and used as a grappling hook, among other uses. Redmond can be inserted into special outlets to be set on fire, frozen, or become radioactive.Show more

I had this game for the original xbox when I was a kid. I also play this game using emulators quite often. A lot of the jokes went over my head as a kid but playing it now I can get a good laugh here and there. I would like to see a PC port of this game.
I found this game when trying to find titles with Mustelid/Weasel representation in them and proceeded to buy and complete it on OG Xbox. The wacky concepts and absurd theme of saving animals through animal abuse was hilarious, but what really sticks with me is the animations, character personalities, goofy albeit adultish jokes, dynamic music that's a blast to listen to, and some hefty, satisfying platforming action. Too bad the middle of the game SLAPS your butt with a ball-busting mess: the Shipping and Waste Department levels. Utterly horrific and confusing with their layout and how to progress in them. The final stint of the game was much better thankfully. All said and done, easily one of the best platformers on Xbox, and super underrated game in general. I'd love to see this on PC/GOG with slightly updated visuals, but even a straight port with widescreen support would be epic!
Hidden GEM right here, this classic action platformer has never been talked about by anyone I've ever met or seen online, which is a shier tragedy. This games humor is dated, I know because I'm replaying it with my girlfriend right now, but 80% holds up and the game play is so crisp and perfect. the only 3d platformer on it's level in the last 10 years is psychonauts 2. I had this as a kid on ps2 but never beat it, I aim to now as an adult but want to throw more money at this game because it deserves it. It deserves a new life, and new fans while keeping it alive for the old ones and that's where gog owns the market.

Prince of PersiaThe game is set in ancient Persia. While the sultan is fighting a war in a foreign land, his vizier Jaffar, a wizard, seizes power. Jaffar's only obstacle to the throne is the Sultan's daughter (although the game never specifically mentions how). Jaffar locks her in a tower and orders her, under threat of execution, to become his wife. The game's nameless protagonist, whom the Princess loves, is thrown into the palace dungeons. The player must lead the protagonist out of the dungeons and to the palace tower, defeating Jaffar and freeing the Princess in under 60 minutes. In addition to guards, various traps and dungeons, the protagonist is further hindered by his own doppelgänger, an apparition of his own self that is conjured out of a magic mirror.Action

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's RequiemEternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a psychological horror action adventure, released in 2002 by Nintendo for the Gamecube. It tells the stories of twelve characters that span across the world and two millennia who have to deal with ancient forces of evil which have been trying to manifest themselves in our world. Chapters take place in Ancient Rome, Persia, the Middle East, and modern-day Rhode Island. Throughout the game, the protagonists will have access to several weapons appropriate for their era, from bastard sword & gladius to flintlock pistol and shotgun.
The game features an involved Magic system, which allows different spells to be created through the combination of runes. These spells can attack enemies, dispel illusions, and heal both the body and items.
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem also has a unique feature called Sanity. If an enemy sees a character, their Sanity meter drops. When Sanity gets low, hallucinations begin to plague the character. Walls bleed, voices whisper from nowhere, the camera gets disoriented. Sanity can be restored by dealing a finishing move on a dying enemy, or with spells or some items.Action Horror Survival
