Played hunter hunted while being a teenager, don't know why but I ever finish it, and still after all this year's I feel like being hunted by hunter hunted, please bring it back, I need to save myself from this
Oh boy! this one takes me back.. Innovative and fun challenging levels, plus the option for splitscreen coop or deathmatch. All this backed up by an old reliable developer that made alot of quality games back then. This is really a Good old Game in every sense

Damn I remember playing this game as a kid! I wasn't good at the game lol, but it were really exciting and scary back then. I've been looking for this game for over 20 years without luck, until now.

I remember playing with my friends together using one keyboard, not sure if it's true though :D But I definitely played it A LOT. My first "serious" platformer I would say. Tons of weapons, sweaty gameplay, "sandboxy" levels where you need to plan your actions accordingly.
Hunter Hunted introduced a 3-dimensional aspect to platformers because your character could enter rooms in the rear wall of the screen and come back out of them. This was unique at the time and deserves GOG preservation for this aspect. It was also quite fun playing head -to-head against a friend.

Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time Busters
Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time BustersDaffy Duck has somehow managing to break Granny's time regulator, causing himself and the Time Gem that acts as the heart of the regulator to be pitched back into the shrouded annals of history. Well, if there are two people you know to call when it comes to times of crisis they would be Bugs Bunny and ... Taz? Well, regardless of the intelligence of the decision, Bugs and Taz will have to work together on this mission, traveling through four different eras in a quest to find Daffy, recover the Time Gem and set things back to the way they ought to be. Take control of the two famous Warner Bros. characters in Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time Busters for the PlayStation. You will alternate between the wise-cracking rabbit and the Tasmanian eating machine in an attempt to rescue the Time Crystal and Daffy. To do so, they'll have to use the Time Regulator themselves, blasting back through four different eras to complete their quest. These time periods are The Aztec Era, The Viking Era, The Arabian Era and Transylvanian Era. Each character has his own set of moves, from Bugs' quickness to Taz's spinning fury. You can play each of the characters at any point, calling your friend to your location and switching between them, occasionally using them at nearly the same time to get past a given obstacle. If you don't want to play the game alone, you can even bring in a second friend to play the other character.

Gex 64: Enter the Gecko
Gex 64: Enter the GeckoGex 64 was the Nintendo 64 port of Gex: Enter the Gecko. This version featured a new level, which replaced the secret levels. "Gecques Cousteau", which is centered on the RMS Titanic, is played almost entirely underwater. The only land parts of the level are at the entrance to the Titanic, which is sunk by the iceberg. Other changes include fewer bonus levels and fewer quotes, due to the Nintendo 64 cartridges storing significantly less data for games than CDs. Some of the sound effects were altered slightly.
