I remember playing this every time i went to the arcade as a kid. Scare the crap out of me, but i couldn't stay away. More than deserve to be on pc for excellent sound affects alone.

CarnEvil was a particular Arcade game I remembered for a long time. It's mind blowing this never gotten ported. If you enjoy The House of the Dead series or similar games. You're going to absolutely enjoy this game. I know the horror community on GOG would welcome CarnEvil. I would drop everything to buy this game!!!

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
Metal Gear Solid: Peace WalkerMetal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is an action-adventure stealth video game and is the third action-based Metal Gear title made specifically for the PSP. The gameplay consists of two primary modes: Mission and Mother Base. Mission are the actual action sequences of the game where the player must infiltrate an enemy territory or fight a boss, whereas Mother Base is an army management. Some changes have been made to the standard Metal Gear formula: the player is now unable to move or shoot while laying down and while pinned to a wall, making Peace Walker the first game since Metal Gear to lack any crawling ability.
