The music, cutscenes, and sound design make this game unforgettable. This is hard to describe, but in some games you walk through narrow corridors, where every room feels the same. In Deadly Tide, the player is transported under the ocean. I can feel the scale of the environment. Although the game itself is short, it's not just about the length of the game - but how it inspires you afterwards. Have you ever played a game where you immediately wanted to know what's next? I want to play more, I want to see more of this world, I want more games to be just like Deadly Tide. Why do I want this game on GOG? Because I don't think anyone can play it anymore. I bought a physical copy with a game CD. When I tried to play it on recent versions of Windows, Windows wouldn't even detect the CD. I had to uninstall Windows updates or pull my decade-old computer out of mothballs. People sometimes ask what game they would want to see remastered with the latest, cutting-edge graphics. Deadly Tide comes to mind. Don't let this game die. Don't let the non-existent franchise die. I want this game remastered, keeping the old music, sound effects, and cutscenes. The game ended on a cliffhanger. What if there was a sequel? What if there was a franchise? ...... Just watch the trailers and see for yourself.
I had a demo of this game back in the day and have great memories of it. The music was spectacular for it's time. The gameplay itself was no big deal, it's basically just a "shooter". You shoot your guns at the right moment in the right place. Visually it was very cinematic. A fun game with a great soundtrack. I would pay a few dollars for it.

Bulletstorm
BulletstormBulletstorm brings new furor to first-person shooter action thanks to its signature 'kill with skill' gameplay. The game tells the story of a futuristic confederation protected by an elite band of mercenaries: Dead Echo. When Dead Echo members Grayson Hunt and Ishi Sato learn they've been working for the wrong side, they're betrayed by their commander and exiled to the far reaches of the galaxy. In Bulletstorm, Grayson and Ishi find themselves surrounded by hordes of mutants and flesh eating gangs in an abandoned paradise. They have two objectives: get off the planet alive, and exact revenge on the man who sent them there. Players step into the role of Grayson Hunt complete with an arsenal of over-the-top combat moves and outrageously large guns. Bulletstorm's array of distinct 'skillshots' produces unprecedented levels of frantic gameplay and yell-inducing satisfaction. The skillshot system rewards players for inciting mayhem in the most creative way possible. The more insane the skillshot, the more points players collects to upgrade their character and unlock weapons, which then allows them to execute even more creative moves and exaggerated skillshots.
