Best multiplayer game of all time. I used to play it a ton in internet cafes back in the day. Ah nostalgia. There's actually a fan remake of this game and I played it recently with a couple of friends and we had a real blast! Hope to see this on GOG.

The game was very dynamic and fun for its time, but it's really sad that to this day it hasn't received any patches, especially TCP/IP support, which would have extended its lifespan for online play. I still hope and believe that with its release on GOG, the game will receive at least some updates.

A simple game with a simple premise but amazing potential. Hours were wasted playing through this game over and over, and the AI was some of the best in the series to date. The game also had very robust multiplayer and custom modes that continued the fun far beyond the average games' playtime.

Back in the mid 90's I rented out a couple of rooms in my house... Come to find out, both were avid gamers and soon we had the whole house wired up for a LAN. When this one came out, it quickly became a favorite!!!
Atomic Bomberman is loud, brash, ridiculous, and still probably one of the funniest games I've ever played. The bombermen assault each other with sarcastic dialogue while you try to take out your enemies, and it's laugh out loud stuff. The levels are diverse and make matches feel fresh. It was built for multiplayer, but playing against the CPU also offered a pretty good time. It's the black sheep of the Bomberman series, but also very likely the best one. Like one of the other commenters, I also played this with my dad when I was a kid, and it was a fantastic time. People of any age and generation can enjoy this one, and we sorely need it back.

We still play this game with friends throughout the internet with a LOT OF WORK behind it. It is a real chore to even make it run properly on medern systems without issues. There is a mod that makes it compatible but it has its own issues. We have been playing this game with my friends ever since Interplay first released it and it is still just as much fun as it ever was. Somehow non of the newer versions gave back quite the same feeling. If there would be an easy to source fully functioning version on GOG that would be so awesome.

So many memories. So many sleepless nights playing with my brother. Throwing bombs at each other. An unforgettable game. One of the best (maybe even the best?) Bomberman games? In any case, it's the one I remember most. It deserves to be preserved forever.

Golden Axe
Golden AxeProgress is made through the game by fighting through Death Adder's henchmen, including men armed with clubs and maces, skeleton warriors, and knights. Players are able to attack using their weapon, jump and cast spells that hurt all enemies on the screen. The force of this magic depends on the number of "bars" of magic power currently available. The bars are filled by collecting blue 'magic potions' attained by kicking little sprites who then drop the potions. These sprites appear during regular levels and during bonus stages in between levels. The male warrior Ax is able to cast earth spells. The dwarf Gilius, casts lightning spells and the female warrior Tyris casts fire magic. Each character has a different number of maximum magic bars and varying ranges of attack. Various steeds known as bizarrians are found in the game. These can be ridden when the enemy rider is knocked off, or if one is found dormant. The least powerful steed is known as the Cockatrice, which can be used to knock down enemies with a swipe of its tail. The more powerful dragon, which can either shoot fireballs or breathe fire, is found later in the game.

MediEvil
MediEvilMediEvil is an action-adventure game developed by SCE Cambridge Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. Originally released in 1998 for the PlayStation, the game follows Sir Daniel Fortesque, a skeletal knight accidentally resurrected to battle the sorcerer Zarok and save the kingdom of Gallowmere. The game takes place across a variety of levels, many of which require certain objectives to be performed to progress. Sir Daniel Fortesque can use a variety of weapons, consisting of close range weapons such as swords and clubs to long range weapons such as crossbows. Many of these weapons can be charged for a powerful attack and some weapons, such as the club, can be used to access areas that are otherwise inaccessible. When not possessing any items, Dan is able to rip his own arm off and use it for both melee and ranged attacks. Dan can equip a shield alongside weapons to defend against attacks; though they can only take several hits of damage before breaking. Throughout the game, Dan can visit gargoyle heads of two varieties; green ones offer Dan information while blue ones allow Dan to buy services or ammunition by using the treasures he finds. Dan's health is determined by a single health bar, which reduces when Dan is hit. It will deplete completely if Dan drowns or falls from a great height. If Dan completely runs out of health, the game will end. Dan can extend his maximum health by collecting Life Bottles, which will automatically refill his health bar if it drops to zero. Also hidden throughout the game are Life Vials and Life Fountains that can replenish Dan's health and fill up any empty Life Bottles Dan has. In each level, there is a hidden Chalice of Souls, which can be collected if the player fills it with enough souls from defeated enemies (some Chalices are awarded via other means). If the player clears a level with a Chalice in hand, Dan is warped to the Hall of Heroes, where he can speak to a legendary hero who will give him rewards, such as weapons. If the player finishes the game with all the Chalices, the game's true ending is revealed.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
