This was a great game about super heroes. It had a top down perspective and fully destructible environments. You could level up your characters to do insane crap like lifting busses and break apart skyscrapers. There was a cheezy, yet addicting, storyline.
The game even included the ability to create your own hero with dozens and dozens of abilities and specialties to choose from. It came out in like 2001 I think so perhaps it could be counted as a gog.
I would definintely get this game again.

"Freedom Force" and its sequel "Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich" were already featured as "free" full versions in several german PC gaming magazines. So I guess the chances of getting it here aren't so bad, although I don't know about the way its publisher is known to handle this.
I enjoyed playing "Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich" quite a lot, but unfortunately I found the gameplay was a bit repetitive and especially the final mission was frustratingly hard for me, which is why I never finished it. Also the multiplayer mode proved to be quite a disappointment. Spending the time to create your unique heroes for it was fun, actually using it for some shallow and not so tactical brawling with a friend wasn't really.
But I think "Freedom Force" might appeal to me a bit more, as I guess it has a more "traditional" super hero setting instead of the parallel-universe-WW2-setting (including dinosaurs) of the sequel, or doesn't it? :)

I would love to see those games here. The sequel even more than the original, simply because FFvTTR came with SecuROM here, and StarForce in some other places.
They were made by Irrational Games, and the second one was self-published before Take2 bought them, and there certainly hasn't been any public noises about Take2 wanting to continue the series thus far (I don't think the self-published one did too well, which I think was partially self-inflicted, but probably mostly down to marketing in reality).
In all honesty I think they made a sizeable mistake with the story line they picked for the sequel -- it wasn't what they had originally suggested they would do, and I think a lot of the FF fans felt it was dramatically less appealing as a result.
It also garnered a bit of anti-WW2-game negativity in various places (despite being set in a bizzaro-world version of history that was fairly well disconnected from most WW2 games).
And then there was that awful stupid "Axis of Evil" tag line. I swear, they must all have been off-their-faces drunk when they decided that was a good idea for their fun little alternative-reality piece of escapism. WTF were they thinking?!
Good fun to play, though :)
The first Freedom Force does also feature time-travel, but it doesn't touch WW2. You'd probably prefer it. The story does come across as something of an excuse for the missions, but then that's more or less what the comic books it's aping are like :)
I played the entire FF over a single weekend, during which I did little else besides catch a bit of sleep when I could no longer focus on playing. When I was through I actually uninstalled it rather than risk starting a new game and succumbing to the just-one-more-mission addition all over again.

I agree 100% and just placed my votes for both FF and FFvT3R in the "Wish List" area.
The Freedom Force games were exception examples of the "X-com" style of real-time isometric gameplay that allowed the player to pause the action in order to issue commands. Great gameplay and fun level was through the roof.
What truly made the Freedom Force games so memorable was the care and detail that went into capturing that campy gold / silver age comic feel. Each character had an origins story that was done in an inspired comic book style format in the "tip of the hat" style to our favorite $0.10 comics from long ago.
Once you see a character named "Manbot" and his origin story, you will wonder how you ever lived without this game before.

I want this game!
Never played it.

Oddly enough I have both of these games but I'd still buy them here. Same with a lot of other games on GoG...It's just so much easier to install with an executable than from CD.
I think I may possibly lean a little to the side of a tad lazy.... Maybe.

I always wanted to play these, but they all had dickish DRM. Guaranteed sale on both of them from me.

Only the second one had bad DRM (Starforce), the first one had a simple CD check and that was it.

WOW I Loved That GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. i would buy it asap!

Awesome to hear from some other Freedom Force fans. Make sure to go put a vote in on the "Wish List" area for both to show that we want these games!
I also agree with a previous post that I would re-purchase these in order to have a simple to install EXE and no CD's to worry about.
Some other character names to refresh the memory :^) Alchemiss, Microwave, Minute Man and Liberty Lad!

OMFG, YES!
I actually own both of these games, but would gladly purchase them again just for the DRM-free goodness. I never reinstalled them after rebuilding my gaming PC because once it was pristine I didn't want to pollute it again with dodgy stuff. Spent my time playing non-DRM games on Linux instead and stopped buying new games. (Yes, gaming industry - DRM lost a good customer for you.)
Freedom Force (1 and 2) FTW!

Hmm. Double post. Sorry. Wish we could delete posts.

Its too bad there aren't more people playing the game online anymore. I don't usually go for many online multi-player games, but this one could have been loads of fun, especially with the ridiculous custom characters you can create.

CoH is not even close to the same kind of game, I don't believe it had anything to do with FF having a poor multi-player environment. The fact that hardly anyone bought FF or its sequel did that.
