This was the first game that made me go "woah...so this is what the future looks like." I have way too many fond memories of playing Escape from Butcher Bay after school and just being completely immersed in the world.

Honestly the fact this and DA aren't already over here is kind of dumb. Easy sale. I played one of these way back in the day on the xbox and then on the 306, so this would be an instant buy.
I really enjoyed the movie. I also dreamed of playing it as a kid, but then I had a weak computer and it wouldn't even start.... and it's been 20 years. I don't want to look for the pirate version, it would spoil the impression. I hope to launch this game someday and feel 2004 again.

An impressive simulator at its best. All Riddick games must be on GOG. I loaded the game for the first time as a kid, without knowing much about it and was blown away by the atmosphere and graphics. The gameplay was amazing too. I had never experienced anything like it at that point. One of the best first-person games of all time.
