Everything about this game connects with me unlike any other. It has a vibe that's unique and it absorbes you. It has slow motion, it has hacking, you can shoot the gun sideways, papapapap, and switch to pum pum pum with a scope and shoot trough walls, every gun has an interesting secondary mode like that. The game incentivizes the player to combine every mechanic to do combos and these mechanics build on top of each other to great success. Hard mode is a must to get the best experience. To have this game on GOG is to give every people like me but couldn't, get the chance to play it.
Even though it's not an RTS game like its older previous entries, Syndicate is noteworthy for its developer. Before the staff jumped over to MachineGames and its current iteration decided to milk Payday for all its worth, Starbreeze was the king of narrative-driven FPS games. This...wasn't their best title, but it was interesting and still holds that Starbreeze DNA that would carry on over to Indiana Jones and Wolfenstein. It's, sadly, currently delisted, but deserves to be preserved, even if it isn't the best game.

The game is literally unplayable because EA SecuROM implementation bricked the .exe and configurations. Also, Vsync enable caused MouseLag and many issues that is mentioned in PCGamingWiki. It's...bad! If GOG is gonna brought this game here, I hope they polished it up.

I had hundreds of hours into this game because of the coop. My dad and I played through all of the missions on normal, hard, and even two of them on very hard. Lots of good memories and would love to play it with him again if it can be released here with the coop mode intact.

Forgotten gem, a unique cyberpunk fps with a cool hack gameplay. Very addictive, the cinematic sense is very cool too. Another game that deserves return to stores! They dont make like this anymore
It's an amazing game that I have played a lot on Xbox 360 with an intense gameplay and deep narrative and now, it has simply vanished from all the marketplaces... please, make it happen! :D

The game is ass, but the opening mission is extremely good and should be experienced by everyone. Sci-Fi would that they created, plus the imaginative weapons makes this worth playing. It's clear they ran out of budget by the end.

This is by far one of the greatest fps games I've played to date. I remember playing this back on the 360. Would love to see it get the spotlight again. This site has hope for the "delisted" titles.

It's not on Steam. Its graphics still look good, and the voice actors did a nice job. The game mechanics are fascinating, and some scenarios in this game are more than memorable (yes, I'm talking about the train). This game perfectly fits GOG in all aspects.

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
Mercenaries 2: World in FlamesMercenaries 2: World in Flames is an explosive open-world action game set in a massive, highly reactive, war-torn world. A power-hungry tyrant messes with Venezuela's oil supply, sparking an invasion that turns the country into a warzone. But for you, international crisis is all upside: You are a mercenary, and you profit from chaos. Mercenaries 2 features a slew of potential clients, all willing to pay you to do their dirty work. Dirty deeds, done for exorbitant fees. These are world powers with deep pockets, deep grudges, and enough arms and ammo to start World War III. This is your kind of environment. Mercenaries 2 features the latest and most dangerous in civilian and military tech, everything from shiny new sports cars, to the future-tech satellite-guided bunker-busting mini-nuke. Tanks, APCs, boats, luxury automobiles - you name it, you can have it delivered to you in real time. And if you run out of cash you can always 'acquire' the gear you need in the field. If you see it, you can buy it, steal it, or blow the living crap out of it. Play your own way, or play with the help of a friend in the new cooperative multiplayer mode. You are not a soldier. You don't have to play by anyone's rules. You have your own code: you will fulfill the terms of the contract, no matter what. Not everyone in the world of Mercenaries is as honorable. Everyone will try and screw you, given the chance. They think they can get away with it, because they don't know rule #1: EVERYBODY PAYS.

Turok
TurokTurok is a first-person shooter developed by Propaganda Games, and published by Touchstone Games and Disney Interactive Studios, originally for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in February 2008. It was later ported on to Microsoft Windows in April 2008. A sequel was planned and developed for the Xbox 360 but it was cancelled before it was even officially announced. The game is loosely based on the comic book series of the same title and is unrelated to the story and setting of previous Turok video games. Players assume the role of Native American space marine Joseph Turok, who is part of a team sent to a remote planet to apprehend his previous commanding officer, General Roland Kane, now a wanted war criminal. After crash landing, Turok discovers this planet is home to all manner of dinosaurs, and must fight both the predatory creatures and Kane's private army on his mission to take down his former mentor.
