Anything that lets us hear more Avery Brooks is a good call in my book. On top of that, it's incredibly rare to actually take the Captain's role in a Star Trek game of any quality.
Not only is this a really cool Star Trek game, but it's the last time Avery Brooks did anything for Star Trek as Captain Sisko. They brought every captain together for this game and it's really special.
This game is a childhood classic, it's got all the captains, fun story and gameplay, and great mods. I still have the CD. The space combat may be simpler than bridge commander, but the graphics are much better.
Another classic from the era when they made decent Star Trek games. Flying your own Connie around, enjoying stories from across the eras, what more could you ask for.
This is the closest I've ever come to my perfect Star Trek game. I played this on Xbox 360, and it is one of the very few games from that era not made backward compatible to the Xbox One (and forward). I wanted to replay this game so badly, but it doesn't run on any modern console or PC. The voice acting is fantastic (original cast), the graphics were great for the era, and the ships just feel so cool to fly around. Engage!
There is no other game quite like it that I can think of. A blend of action and strategy, wrapped in a story spanning the entire Classic Trek timeline. Hardcore simulation, strategy, space combat, and action fans could get annoyed by how simplified all those parts are, but the fact that the game could meld all of those genres together and be fun and compelling is a testament to the developers. They obviously loved Star Trek, and it shows. Especially in a modern world where Star Trek doesn't feel like Star Trek anymore, Star Trek: Legacy is a warm blanket of nostalgia that just happens to be a fun game. If there is any con that I can think of, it is that William Shatner really phones in his performance. Every time I hear his voice in the game, I just imagine him in a soundbooth with his head resting on one hand and sleepily talking into a microphone. It probably isn't that bad, but it is the only negative that sticks out to me.
The first Star Trek game I had for PC, I played the campaign through like three times. i would love to be able to have this game going forward, and be able to tell people where to go to get this great game
This was the first game I got hyped for as a kid. Followed the announcement, joined the forums, started a Star Trek podcast with some friends, interviewed some developers and writers, and ultimately joined a mod team after it released. This game holds such a unique part of my childhood, and it would be a joy to see it shared with another generation.
Castlevania: Symphony of the NightA seminal 2D metroidvania in which after the events of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (1993), a man named Alucard arrives at Dracula's castle after it rises from the rubble, and seeks to defeat the evil contained within it once and for all by exploring, fighting its inhabitants and collecting the various weapons and abilities hidden in its depths.Open world Action Horror
Castlevania: Circle of the MoonCastlevania: Circle of the Moon is the first of the series to be based on the action/RPG structure of Castlevania:Symphony of the Night rather than the level-based action style of all previous Castlevania games. Dracula's castle is a single continuous building, and as Nathan discovers artifacts within it he gains new abilities that allow him to explore more of it. While Nathan can only use his Killer Whip as a weapon, he can find and equip different kinds of armor and accessories that change his stats. Unique to this entry in the series is the Dual Set-up System, where a combination of two cards will give Nathan unique magical abilities. For example, equipping a fire type card with a whip card will give the Killer Whip a fire attribute, while equipping it with a summon card will let Nathan summon a fire demon to attack onscreen enemies.Action Horror

Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments.

Silent Hill: Shattered MemoriesSilent Hill: Shattered Memories is the seventh installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a stand-alone reimagining of the original Silent Hill video game. Once again, you will cast Harry Mason searching across the haunted town for his missing daughter Cheryl. Through his exploration, Harry will come across objects and recordings that tell some of the history of Silent Hill. New to the series are a depiction of Silent Hill's demonic alter-dimension as a world of ice, and the removal of weapons from the game: when the monsters come out, Harry must literally run for his life. Between scenes, the game will cut to a psychiatrist's office, who asks personal questions about Harry and his past experiences. The game will then alter itself based on the player's responses, changing characters and lines of dialog to something intended to be more personally uncomfortable.Horror Survival
Silent Hill: OriginsSilent Hill: Origins is the fifth installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a prequel to the original game. As in the previous entries, the player move back and forth between nightmare and real versions of the town, gathering items used to solve puzzles and open up new areas. Monsters of various types provide obstacles and, in series tradition, are mostly disturbingly twisted versions of humanity. The main character can fight with his bare fists or use melee weapons. Unlike previous games in the series, melee weapons break after a time. There are also one-shot items that can be thrown and several guns. There is no HUD, but the edge of the screen turns red when the protagonist is near death.Horror Survival
