It just so happens I decided to give this new Shadow Warrior game a go, so I have a copy of Shadow Warrior Classic Complete since I already own it. I thought why not use it to gather wishlist votes for a cool game I'd like to see on GOG. In this case it's a favorite of mine made by good old MicroProse, a hybrid of a point & click adventure and an RPG, who doesn't love vampires and cyberpunk amirite? If you would like to enter please post in this thread indicating so, and vote for BloodNet on GOG here:

I will wait till it gets a decent amount of votes and then random.org participants for the winner
Oh and +++ rep me :)
Here's some info about the game for anyone who is curious:
BloodNet is a cyberpunk role-playing video game / Adventure game published by MicroProse in 1993.
A mix of future tech and gothic vampire story, in the cyberpunk style, BloodNet puts the player into the role of a man named Ransom Stark, who must battle a vampire named Abraham Van Helsing who is attempting world domination and save both humanity and the cybernet. Ransom Stark was bitten by the aforementioned vampire, but is able to fight off the infection with the help of a computer grafted onto his brain stem. He must then embark on a journey to defeat the head vampire, Dracula, to stop the infection.
The game featured a great deal of written dialog and puzzles, in addition to an open-ended travel system and random encounters. An alternate 'cyberspace universe' was also part of the gameplay, where codewords are needed to travel to different 'wells' (cyberspace locations). Role-playing elements were also present in Bloodnet: the player character and other recruitable characters for the player's party had number-based stats (such as Perception, Hacking, etc.), and combat was based on the player character's attributes and stats.
