There is a scene in this game where Jackie, the main character, goes to his girlfriend's apartment. The two of them lie on the couch together, and you, the player, can watch the entirety of To Kill A Mockingbird with her. In such a violent game, it's an intimate moment that stands out and has never left my mind. That's why this game deserves to be preserved.
This game is one of the first games I played when I got my PS3 back in the day. It was also one of the few games my dad watched me play and he LOVED it. So did I! I think of this game surprisingly often. It's so cool and unique. Even though I played it so long ago, I haven't forgotten it.
"I remember the night of my 21st birthday, That was the first time I died."
It's one of my all-time favorite games, and it definitely deserves a good remaster and re-release on PC and modern consoles.
The story in this game hooks me very much, the characters feel alive, Mike Patton's voice acting is fantastic, and almost every NPC here speaks in a very flavorful voice, I'm still impressed. The scene where you're just chillin' with your girlfriend on her couch and watching a FULL movie of To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the most touching scenes in the game.
There is a lot of attention to detail that makes for a unique gaming experience. There's also an amazing licensed soundtrack that you can listen to on in-game TV. I can talk about this game for hours, and replay it many times. I love it, a lot.
I played The Darkness II a lot in my childhood and very fun game. The gameplay with demonic tendrils were superb and wanted more but the first game wasn't on the PC. I want it to have it on this platform.
Always remember this game fondly as it felt very unique at the time so to have it on PC preserved and finally available for everyone to play would honestly be amazing!
This original game had some of the most memorable set pieces of any game out there. The "hell" segments that takes place in an other-worldly battlefield are like being inside of a Zdzisław Beksiński painting. The visuals in general were also great and in my opinion greatly exceed the cell-shaded art style of the sequel.
One of the best games on the PS3, was a really unqiue style at the time and had a cool story.
Sadly forgotten but i want this back due to how beloved it is by me and the people around me.
I haven't actually played this title yet, I'm keen but I've played the second title and its crazy fun! I can imagine this title will be as great as the second, plus I'd would really like and prefer to play this title and "The Darkness II" on GOG, that would awesome.

Wolfenstein RPGWolfenstein RPG is a first-person shooter and role-playing video game developed by id Software and Fountainhead Entertainment, released in September 2008 for mobile phones and in May 2009 for iOS. In 2013 the game was removed from App Store.
The gameplay follows the recipe from Doom RPG as it is shown in the first person while being a turn-based role-playing game rather than a shooter and puts emphasis on the plot. Combat and movement are turn-based, allowing the player time to select their responses in combat. The player turns at 90 degree angles and moves space by space. One step or action by the player allows all other characters in the area to take one step or action themselves. The game takes advantage of its deliberately slow pace, encouraging players to take their time and check out every little corner, read the books on every bookshelf, and destroy all the furniture to see if anything is hidden within. Levels include underground passages and weapon development laboratories plus a level involving a moving vehicle.
The game also includes two mini games: the card game War as well as Chicken Kicking, where the player is awarded points for kicking a chicken into a score area.Action Historical
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
