My first Playstation One game in 2000. Please bring this game back to PC. It was so much fun back in 2000. I don't see multiple endings and an awesome story like this one. I'm feeling underrated game back in the year 2000. No one remembers this awesome game or talked about this game till now.

I played this all the way through at a sleepover at a friends house back in the day. The turn this game takes later on in the story is awesome. Changed my life, made me seek out the "other side" of faith. I have this on the miyoo mini+ as a rom but would LOVE to see this get the GOG treatment. Top notch.
Na época do bom e velho Ps1 conhecia jogos de survival horror como Alone in the Dark, Resident Evil, Dino Crisis e outros. Mas um jogo, um tanto desconhecido (o que é uma injustiça) foi uma grata surpresa ao encontra-lo por acaso. Um jogo de survival horror com temática Cyberpunk e um visual gráfico incrível para época, merecia muito mais reconhecimento. Sou suspeito em falar pois o gênero Cyberpunk é meu preferido em filmes, jogos e séries, e Fear Effect foi um dos melhores jogos que joguei no Ps1. Seria realmente fantástico tê-lo novamente pela loja mais apropriada para isso. Obrigado por essa iniciativa GOG.COM, vocês são incríveis!

Freelancer
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.

Blaster Master: Blasting Again
Blaster Master: Blasting AgainYears ago, the Earth was threatened by an evil being known as the Plutonium Boss. The Plutonium Boss and his minions were devouring the Earth from within, and if they had succeeded, Earth would've been destroyed. He didn't count on a young man named Jason, a beautiful alien woman named Eve, and their battle tank, the Sofia MA-01...because of his underestimation, the Plutonium Boss was defeated. Since then, Jason had been defending the Earth from any threat that arises, with Eve by his side. She even bore him two children, Roddy and Elfie. Jason trained Elfie in engineering, and Roddy in battling in Sofia. But now Jason and Eve have died, and Roddy must take his father's place as defender of the Earth. And an old threat seems to be arising to challenge this new generation of heroes...
