Vote to bring this game to GOG and help preserve it.5 837
I played this game for hours upon hours when I was younger. I would love nothing more than than a port of this game that works on modern PC's. I used to play this game online and spent way too much time on the PvP modes and also meticulously setting up cool action plans for the single player missions. What a great time. It would be an immediate buy for me and many other people.
The forgotten one from the classic trilogy. If BUGisoft doesn't care about bringing this one back, then we got to keep playing R6 Black Ops 2.0. Anyway it's still better than Siege and Extraction.
PLEASE GOG PLEEEASE BRING THIS BACK WITH MULTIPLAYER SERVERS!!!! this was my first multiplayer FPS EVER. i had it installed on all my friends from school and cousins computers we would alllllll skip school and LAN up and play with eachother on Mplayer and MSN Zone...then xbox came out with Halo, ps2 came out with Socom and it was all over from there, UNTILL NOW. DO IT!! this is one of the best FPS ever and if you guys brought it back it would SURE bring consumers!
The first game is available on GOG and, while amazing, is not as good as Rogue Spear in my opinion. I feel it does the franchise a disservice not to preserve Rogue Spear for its importance. Additionally, I have many fond memories growing up of playing this game on the family computer and recently bought a used copy that doesn't like modern operating systems, so seeing it preserved would mean the world to me.
I have strong memories with this one, like for example that I was used to playing using the arrow keys, and then when I got to this one the movement was all done by the AWSD and I thought the game had some problem XD. But then I understood the controls, I saw that it was a game as good as the first one, it would be a great chance for GOG to complete the series with this one.
I played this fabulous game when it was released, especially with my cousin Daniele, a Folgore paratrooper. We loved planning missions and had a lot of fun. I hope you bring it to GoG. It would be a wonderful gift to remember my cousin.
The best Rainbow Six ever in my opinion
While modern Rainbow Six is more on action and remains strategy, nothing comes close to these original babies that started it all in the iconic franchise that were so unforgiving and STRICLY strategy, most of the game was gonna play out how you organize the mission before it begins!
A pivotal game in the tactical 1st person shooter genre. Still remember being in awe of giving sniper go codes. Also the 747 mission was ahead of its time. Multiplayer alone would make this an easy buy.
One of the greatest MP experiences of my life. This is a gem, and should be considered for the dream list. I remember playing WW2 mods and others with friends often. This is a true classic, and although the base Rainbow Six is on here, why not Rogue Spear!?
My first experience with tactical action FPS. In my opinion, the best of the original series. The maps and missions are all seared into my brain forever. I remember spending hours just in mission planning, refining routes for the different teams and evaluating different room breaching and clearing strategies. Nothing compared to the sweaty anxiety as I'd be at the end of a mission, too afraid to start the assault on the final room filled with hostages and their armed captors. I remember falling out of my chair when I got one-shot, so many times. This game would be a huge win for GOG, especially with functional multiplayer.
Wing Commander: The Kilrahi SagaThe Kilrathi Saga was a grand compilation of the initial Wing Commander trilogy and its four expansion packs. Dropaway cockpits, remastered audio and improved joystick options were among the list of improvements. The biggest selling point was native speed-limited support for Windows. Initial sales were low because many fans still readily had computers running DOS to play older Wing Commander games. The game received a second printing in 1998, but many fans were still hesitant to rebuy games they already owned. By the turn of the century however, a huge shift from DOS to Windows had occurred and everyone was scrambling to get a copy. Although the July 2000 edition of PC Gamer included the Kilrathi Saga version of Wing Commander I on its cover disc, auction prices on eBay soared to well over $300 for the full set. Wing Commander fans struggled to find copies until 2005 and the improvement DOS emulation. Although Kilrathi Saga has exciting extras, minor glitches and the solid performance of the original Wing Commander games in DOSBox has relieved the intense price pressure on the game.

Play: The game can be played by enabling Windows 95 compatibility mode in Windows XP

Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth

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

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is the sequel to Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and a prequel to the original Metal Gear. The game has a complex story with long cut-scene sequences, but there are fewer and they are shorter compared to earlier Metal Gear Solid titles. Most of the gameplay mechanics introduced in Ground Zeroes are carried over: it is still an action game and stealth oriented but replaces the linear corridor design from most earlier titles with large open world environments that offer the player unrestricted freedom for the approach. The world has now a real-time day and night cycle and various weather effects that influence enemy behaviour, visibility and sound. Sabotaging or destroying certain structures can also influence other parts of the map.Open world Action Fantasy Historical Stealth
Crimson SkiesThe series is set within an alternate history of the 1930s invented by Weisman and McCoy. Within this divergent timeline, the United States has collapsed, and air travel has become the most popular mode of transportation in North America; as a result, air pirates thrive in the world of Crimson Skies. In describing the concept of Crimson Skies, Jordan Weisman stated he wanted to "take the idea of 16th century Caribbean piracy and translate into a 1930s American setting."Action Fantasy Historical Warfare
