Already finished this on Playstation but interested in getting it on GOG so i can mod it. Love the potential for NPC battles and custom vehicles in this SF sandbox. I do not need the online component, which is mostly races against other players or some weird heist challenges where some other player online comes into your game out of nowhere and kills you for money and prestige on leaderboards.
Maybe my favorite thing Ubisoft has ever made. I know Watch_Dogs 1 has its fans but I am absolutely not one of them. That being said, from the second I saw gameplay of this (and then played it at someones house) I knew it was overcompensating in the best way possible. One of the few open worlds I actually don't want to drive around in and instead stop and smell the (digital) roses on foot and filled with enough details and incentives like landmark photography for XP to make just that alone worthwhile; SongSneak is an idea Hideo Kojima would be proud of. I've spent hours just wandering about this version of San Fran and messing around with the NPC behavior, which has some ideas that predate Red Dead Redemption 2! When its time to get into the story, the arcadey mix of MGS and Deus Ex: Human Revolution is really something-- play this on hard or realistic if you can and try and keep things non-lethal (which means no melee, for some reason!) for the best experience. Turning the Ubisoft Stealth Game Experience(tm) into this brutal smash and grab does a lot to freshen it up. Unfortunately there is a risk this game could just rot and become unplayable. Besides just showing no further interest in the series, and the usual Denuvo shenenigans of releases from this era, this game is now experiencing severe issues on newer hardware, especially Nvidia. It was already not the most performant game in 2016 but not only has that not really improved, rendering is completely broken on newer RTX cards with no fix in sight. I hope this comes to the platform just for a shot at preserving one of the 8th gens best open worlds in the future.

Gex: Enter the Gecko
Gex: Enter the Gecko"Is it just me, or am I engulfed in flames?" is one of the many one-liners uttered by Gex, a wise cracking gecko who should check himself into television rehab; he's addicted to it. After saving the Television Realm from the evil Rez in his first adventure, the gecko was ready to kick back, relax, and watch a little television. Little did he know his adventure was just beginning. One day, two secret agent goons showed up at Gex's doorstep. They inform him that Rez is back and looking for vengeance; the evil monster is planning to destroy the Television Realm once more...and possibly the world. When Gex tells them that he's retired and doesn't care, one of the goons hits the gecko on the head and takes him to a secluded place. When Gex comes to, the mystery men plead with the gecko to take the cash and help destroy Rez for good...or at least make him disappear. With that incentive (the cash), the wise cracking lizard slips into his special agent suit and plunges headfirst into the Television Realm. Watch out, Rez -- Gex is back!

Star Wars
Star WarsStar Wars is a first-person shoot 'em up based around the original Star Wars film. You take on the role of Luke Skywalker, aiming to destroy the Death Star - which, as any fan knows, involves attacking the 'weak spot' near the exhaust. To even get to this you have to pass swarms of TIE Fighters. Complete the game and it loops back around at ever-increasing difficulty. The game uses vector graphics, which allow lots of action at high speed on comparatively slow systems.
