One of the best mech game ever made and it only exists on the original X-Box. Bringing this hidden gem of a game to GOG might be the only way to stop it from disappearing forever.

This game is the reason i love the mecha genre, the customization was deep and versatile, combat was frenetic but balanced and readable, resource management was central both in and out of combat, the arcade feel made losing not feel overwhelming in the style of armored core, it was lighter, enjoyable playing alone or competing with your friends in split screen. It was my most beloved game on the original xbox, and even to this day I am fascinated with the systems and visual identity that the game had, the music, the game feel, the story, all the elements of this game live on in me, and I wish more people could experience it in an authentic and legal way.

The most replayable / fun mech game ever. Phantom Crash blends charm, customization, feelings of power. Unique stealth combat, secret SVs, fun parts, viable builds, AND AN EPIC SOUND TRACK.
Wow, where to start. I absolutely love this game, mech heaven. The customisation and grind to level things up was awesome. I haven’t played this for years, but Milch’s double lasers still trigger me. Absolutely NEED a remake!

Played this game all through college. loved it. So much fun running around with your little companion chip meeting all the characters and figuring out the overall plot. This is basically abandoned and has a core group of people who love it.
One of my first xbox original games, I must have spent hours running my Scoobee and modifying it; just playing through the matches. Every enemy is unique and the mechs have a decent variety for the time
Please bring back this game. It was one of my favorites. Would be super nostalgic for me. I appreciate you considering it. Thank you! I look forward to playing it

Incredible game I doubt we'll ever see again. Fun, dynamic, killer soundtrack (which may prevent re-release tbh) and with flawless vibes. The mech work itself is impressively put together, you really can customise all the way down to the weight of individual components. Meaning you can select the movement (tracks, legs, hover etc) the body (speed, armour, cloak) and weapons (everything from ballistics to energy to rockets) and then go into crazy, open-ended single player arena battles. I really loved this game, and I remember investing so much time to make my perfect mech, but it paid off massively. This needs to make a comeback!
It was my most played xbox game besides halo 2. It blended arcade shooter combat with the customization of games like armored core. My friends and I spent tons of time passing the controller around whilst playing the story mode and and ton of time in the multiplayer. The sequel went to PS2 and is also a good effort, but the original will always be my favorite. All the music was done by no-name artist too, but was phenomenal. I'd love to see the game come GOG because I'm still playing it. A PC port would make it much more portable and running the game at a higher resolution and framerate would be great!

Gangland
GanglandOne hot night in Palermo, Italy, a terrible fight broke out in one of the streets of the old town. The sound of gunfire, screams, and yelling filled the night air; the next morning Chico Mangano was found, shot dead, on the pavement. A gun was located close to the scene and with the evidence of two eyewitnesses; the conclusion was that three of Chico’s brothers, Romano, Angelo, and Sonny were responsible for the murder; Police began an intensive manhunt to find the three brothers but failed. They had vanished. Two years passed on the small Mediterranean island and one day Grandpa Mangano received a phone call from far away.The call was from his eldest son, Vincenzo Mangano, who had left Sicily decades ago. Vincenzo said that the three brothers had been seen alive and well in the same city that Vincenzo lived. Grandpa Mangano dispatched his fifth grandson to start working for Vincenzo, and then, when he was strong and powerful, to hunt down and kill the three murderous brothers. He sent him to America, to Paradise City. Gangland is very unique game that combines many different genres. The mix of such a divergent themes works surprisingly well and give the player a vast selection of options when trying to outplay the opposing families. In addition, the developers did an excellent job in creating a gangster movie-like atmosphere with corrupted cops, ruthless mobsters, and deceiving women. This is a game where crime pays - and it pays a lot.

Project I.G.I.: I'm Going In
Project I.G.I.: I'm Going InProject I.G.I.: I'm Going In (released in Europe as simply Project I.G.I.) is a tactical first-person shooter developed by Innerloop Studios and released on December 15, 2000 by Eidos Interactive. It is one of the first computer games to feature realistic weaponry and tactical combat situations. Pursue and defeat a homicidal ex-Russian Colonel before she turns Europe into a nuclear wasteland in Project IGI: I'm Going In. This first-person shooter emphasizes stealth and guile instead of massive firepower. Jones has to sneak into the toughest military installations in Eastern Europe, and once inside, use his skills in thievery, computer hacking, sabotage, and reconnaissance to stop the madwoman. The enemy's Artificial Intelligence will react to his every action and use military tactics to track his position. In order to counter its surveillance, bunkers, tanks, and gunships, Jones is equipped with NATO spy gear and assault weapons. If the odds get stacked too high against him, he can call in a napalm strike via his Map Computer. Upon release the game garnered mixed reviews due to a number of shortcomings, such as poorly programmed Artificial intelligence, lack of a mid-game save option, and the lack of multiplayer features. However it was praised for its superb sound design and graphics, thanks in part to its use of a proprietary game engine that was previously used in Innerloop's Joint Strike Fighter. It was followed up in 2003 by I.G.I.-2: Covert Strike.
