One of the hidden gems of the PS2. I traded the CD with a friend and seeing how amazing and brutal this game was, and about gladiators, made it an instant favorite for me. Have played it more than i can count. We need it to live forever, and with more people to know it.
Só deus sabe o quanto eu AMO esse jogo, o fato dele estar preso no PS2 e a unica forma dele ser jogado é pelo emulador me deixa completamente frustrado, é uma das maiores joias da 6 geração de consoles e até hoje somos órfãos de jogos de gladiadores com tamanha qualidade.
Oh, man I really want to play this game. Wish Capcom would remember this game someday and make a remaster/remake/sequel. I think more people should try this one cuz' it's a obscure gem of the PS2 era. ~
this game was one of the best ps2 games of my childhood, no more to say story simple, in one line, and stay chill, really wanna get the file itself to play it whenever i want
One of the most UNDERRATED games by capcom. This game was my childhood, i loved this game to death, i still own it on my ps2 but I'd love to have it on pc which is where I'm mostly spending my time on. PLEASE GOG BRING IT BACK! AND CAPCOM PLEASE GIVE IT SOME LOVE, WE NEED IT BACK AS WELL AS THE CANCELED SEQUEL!
This bring back so many good memories from my PS2 time. I absolutely loved this game even though i never managed to finish it (my english wasn't good enough to understand what i had to do during the stealth mission lol, same reason i never finished splinter cell), but I still enjoyed the sotry and specially the gameplay. Would love to own it again, not only because of the memories but it is legit a good game.
The precursor to Dead Rising. This underrated gem was a unique game that had both melee combat action aswell as stealth and puzzle elements. Wish it could come back some way, as unlike other Capcom games, this one has not seen the light of day for years.
Wizardry I & IIWizardry I & II contains the first two installments of the Wizardry series: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord and Knight of Diamond. Both games were ported to the PC Engine (TurboGrafx) CD console with various enhancements, unreleased separately. In fact, the two games are merged into one, as the player is able to play through both of them continuously directly from the main menu.
Though the game(s) are rather faithful in gameplay and graphical design to the original computer versions, the enhancements are significant enough to consider this release a remake. Similarly to the NES / Famicom version, the dungeons have simple graphics, unlike the computer originals with their vector lines. Enemy sprites are also more detailed and occupy a larger portion of the screen.
A pre-made party of six is available to the player right at the beginning, consisting of characters with generic names ("Fighter", "Samurai", etc.); creating own characters (unlike in the modified PC Engine CD version of Might and Magic), however, remains possible. Dungeon navigation is accompanied by orchestrated CD audio music in this version. The battle music is in PSG format.Fantasy

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
