The one and only GTA for me. I loved everything about it. It is a work of art. The love for details: the different driving behaviour of every vehicle, the soundeffects, the music, the voiceover when saving! The only downside was the size of my screen back then. Racing down a street with one eye on the screen an one on the paper map next to my screen to find the fastest way out of a gang's district felt like actually driving with only half my attention on the street. Adrenaline garanteed!

This game and the first ones must be preserved at all costs, I have so much memories on the two first GTAs with my brothers and my friends. Sadly today everyone only talks about the 3D titles but this for me is the real nature of GTA. The missions were silly, fun and memorable. Everyone who played that game back then remember the Russian mafia mission where you need to drive a bus around the city (I won't spoil the end of the mission). I had loved the first one so much and this one improved on so many levels, with the reputation system and the crazy guns, this was awesome ! "And remember, respect is everything !"
grałem tą część po polsku na kompie z windows 98 i XP a chciałbym żeby była wydana po polsku ta część gry bo już sama grafika i muzyka jest ciekawe w niej gra się fajnie i rozumie misje całkiem .

I had played this game on PC when I was a kid. I loved it. That's how I got to know the GTA license. To be able to play this game through GoG would be really great!
~taxi drivers must dieeeee~ vs. ~another soul saved~ vs. ~chocolate sensation~.... unforgetttable If you guys ever release it, please, please, pretty please, make sure it comes with original "radio" soundtracks. Even if it means paying a bit more. It adds sooo much more to that crazy atmosphere.
I've never played this game before and would love to be able to. History should be preserved, and I would finally love a way to actually play the second game in this historical franchise.

Oh, I remember playing this gem on PS1 with a friend of mine, it was so fun and still are. For me GTA2 is on my personal top 3 best GTAs ever. Not to mention that it have the chillest menu track of all!
I'm pretty sure I remember how fun this was at the time, it was a big thing. Obviously, it's different to the Gta we know today, but it lay the foundations, along with the first GTA... This was practically a game changer. Some elderly people at the time argued and made a fuss about how "inappropriate" and "violent" this game was. "Kids can't play it" blah blah. I could of sworn at the time it reminded me muchly of stories my parents told me of how people use to break vinyl albums when they had any relation with "the devil" or something like that. For the amount of limitations a bird eyes view had, Gta 2 had a tonne of features. It was genuinely refreshing and fun. It's funny how much the newer gtas outweigh that now and can even be called lame to some now. I call it still a fun classic that brings me back to memories of hideously slow dial-up internet and my simpler tech times before apple shoved it's face into everything
Why Grand Theft Auto 2 Needs to Be on GOG with Controller Support Grand Theft Auto 2 took everything from the original and made it bigger, faster, and even more chaotic. Set in a futuristic city filled with rival gangs, unique missions, and that classic top-down mayhem, GTA 2 still holds a special place in gaming history. But today, it’s hard to play without workarounds—and the controls haven’t aged well. That’s why it should be re-released on GOG, with full controller support and modern compatibility. GOG is the ideal platform for restoring retro classics like this—DRM-free, easy to install, and preserved for future generations. With controller support added, it would feel smoother and more natural for modern gamers used to analog sticks and triggers. Let’s bring this cult classic back the right way—clean, playable, and as fun as ever. GTA 2 deserves a home on GOG—with controller support included.

Wolfenstein
WolfensteinWolfenstein is the direct sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny/Wolfenstein RPG. It featured a "re-imagined" disguised dark-haired B.J. Blazkowicz, retaining the unshaven look seen in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and dressed in civilian clothes rather than his usual military uniform. The game mainly consists of the player shooting his way through hordes of different types of Nazis, ranging from normal soldier to ninjas. To deal with the large amount of enemies, the player has access to many typical WWII-weapons like the German MP40 or K98 rifle. In addition, during the course of the game he finds the medallion and learns four powers. While at first entering the Veil only allows him so see enemies more clearly and use strange flying creatures as bombs, he is later able to slow down time, surround himself with a protective shield or make himself stronger. However, the medallion's powers drain its energy, which needs to be refilled at power-spots that are nearly invisible in the real world.

Ratchet & Clank
Ratchet & ClankRatchet & Clank is a platform/adventure game in a similar vein to the 3D versions of the Rayman, Sonic, Mario, or other games. It involves the two protagonists Ratchet, a furry alien creature, and Clank, a nerdy little robot, going on a quest to find Captain Qwark and ultimately to help save the galaxy. Ratchet & Clank includes many of the best features of previous similar games, but makes itself unique in a number of ways. Firstly each of the game's levels are huge sweeping vistas with extremely detailed buildings which are visible at all times (i.e. there is no distance fog). This means that a building on the horizon is not just a "backdrop"; in all likelihood Ratchet will be exploring it in a few moments time. Secondly, the game includes a number of sub-games, such as a space fight sequence and a number of turret shoot-outs which are akin to Missile Command in the first person. The game has over twenty levels (planets) and includes as many real-time cut-scenes which tell the story. Also of note is that the story is non-linear, requiring the player to return to previous levels to complete objectives and to choose between multiple paths forward. There is also a respectable array of weapons, gadgets, and accessories to find or buy as the game progresses, which offer some unique gameplay features.

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.
