Galerians and the sequel game, ASH, genuinely altered my brain chemistry after playing them. They're such good games, and they deserve a lot of love. Really recommend playing them if you like Resident Evil -- A new generation should experience Galerians.. and maybe we could get them to remaster it!

We need this game on GOG. It's a classic, just like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. It was not that popular at the time, but I bet people will give it a chance in this day an age.
Absolutely in love with this and it’s sequal just a mind blowing (yes quite literally) still have my original copy sitting on my shelf deserves the remaster/remake treatment

One-of-a-kind classic survival horror experience that has, essentially, been lost to the sands of time. I don't believe the developer or publisher have any interest in this IP - if they're even still in business! - so it would be great to see it rescued by GOG.
I got to play this game the premise is so interesting and PS2 always had such crazy and cool ideas when it came to building worlds and stories on that console I'm sad I missed that console but I hope to eventually see those games brought back to life.

I had to ask an older friend to go into GameStop to buy me a copy of this. I loved this game and played it so much. The awful sequel killed the franchise now its lost - The film was also great. At the time, the mature story, unique gameplay spin on the RE formula and amazing art style blew my mind, and I can only dream of a remake to mirror the likes of SH2 and RE2. But having an upscaled and working copy on PC would be enough :)

I always wanted this to get a remake but a re-release so that the series could noticed more is just as good in my book :) , still have the original and the sequel in my collection.

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.

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey
Shin Megami Tensei: Strange JourneyIn the near future, a mysterious, growing, black void appears at the Earth's southern pole. Unable to determine its cause and powerless to stop its deadly encroachment, humanity sends an elite team of explorers into the heart of the phenomenon, just as Strange Journey's look and feel represent a return to the heart of Shin Megami Tensei, bringing to mind the all-time classic Nocturne. With over 300 demons to bribe, coerce, and negotiate with to gain assistance in battle, Strange Journey is every bit the deep, rewarding RPG experience fans have come to expect from the SMT franchise, yet delivered with a fresh new sci-fi story that taps into mature themes of morality and introspection.
