I loved this game's atmosphere, the slowly unfurling story line and ambience. An ambient game of quiet contemplation at the end of the world. So confused... I bought TLD on GOG and loved it. Why did it go away?

this game is the only one of this type. it is very well done and captivating, its hours & hours playing whithout seeing the time passing. the customization of the survival mode is a very well done feature to adapt the gameplay to what you like. surely one of the best game I played (since 1984 :) ).

Such an immersive and atmospheric game. The narration combined with survival elements ist just amazing. Playing the game you just can't stop asking yourself, what's going on here? I liked the 4 Episodes of Wintermute and I am very much looking forward to the finale of Wintermute (Episode 5). I would very much like to see it on GOG.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the PatriotsMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the final canonical Metal Gear game to feature Solid Snake as the main character. The gameplay of the previous games have been kept along with some new features, such as the ability to roll on your back and also to hide in bins scattered around the environment. Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.
