I could talk about how much I love this game, and how special it is to me, for pages. I actually met the developers in Las Vegas's Cyber X Games in 2003 and learned a lot about its development and the Diversions relationship with Epic. This game came out just a few months before Steam and before digital distribution and easy patching became widespread. With a little compatibility-love, I know this game could reach the audience that it deserves! And a second chance to release the mod tools that were promised, once upon a time. That promise motivated and inspired me to learn 3D modeling. Through this game, I discovered a new passion for polygons and 3D artistic expression.

Despite having its issues, it was slightly ahead of its time with massive 3d battles. I remember some of the hardest matches have you play against practical horde of enemies. It's also a bit of a pain to make work on modern systems so having it on GoG with easy install would be fantastic.

This game was so awesome but like other reviewers have said it was just a little ahead of its time. It requires a fairly beefy graphics cards when it first came out, severely limiting the target audience. Additionally, patching it became difficult after the game had been released for some time. With a little love this would be one heck of a re-release. I loved OMF 2097 and I spent so much time following the development of this game on the official message board back in the relative early days of the internet. Of course I bought the game ASAP when it was released and it didn't disappoint! The game had so many cool things going for it! GOG adding this game would complete me.

One Must Fall: 2097 is a must have fighting game for PC and while battlegrounds is a far inferior game and will probably need some work to fix all the bugs I feel it would be wrong to not include Battlegrounds to complete the series.

I remember all the fun times with this game. It was a ahead of its time like other said. I remember they ran an art contest and I won a signed copy (which I still have to this day) of the game :)

Family Guy Video Game!
Family Guy Video Game!This game is based on the animated television series Family Guy. It was also released for the PlayStation 2 and the original Xbox. The game is split into 22 levels for the three playable characters: Peter, Stewie or Brian. Peter and Stewie have eight levels, while Brian has six. Each character has his own unique style of play. A key feature of the game are mini-games done in the same style as the cutaway gags that the show is famous for, usually lasting less than 10 seconds. The mini-games often repeat cutaway gags from the shows, such as Peter inexplicably burning his hand in a waffle iron. Successfully completing the mini-game offers a bonus: Brian becomes invisible for a short period, while Peter and Stewie receive power-ups for their respective abilities.

True Crime: Streets of LA
True Crime: Streets of LATrue Crime: Streets of LA is a free-roaming driving and action game similar in concept to Grand Theft Auto III. The game's structure is mission-based; most of the missions are dictated by the story and initiate following a cutscene that advances it. Failing a mission still allows the player to continue playing through the chapter and undertake subsequent missions; in some cases this will lead to branching paths and optional missions. However, in order to complete the whole chapter the player must eventually succeed in all the main missions.
