Haunting Ground is a unique horror game that was not only a spiritual successor of the Clock Tower franchise, but a horror game like no other with its heavy psycho sexual horror themes and the relationship the player has with not only the main character Fiona, but the game itself.
Sadly this game is practically inaccessible for anyone in the west with copies of the game going into the 100s (usd). Its a horror masterpiece and deserves to be preserved.
I'll never forget Daniella and how scary she was with her calm demeanor, while wanting to stab me to death. Was pretty hot tbh.
Fiona is only partially referenced now adays in other capcom games, but I wanna see her game return so a new generation can experience this underrated classic!
Trying to solve the puzzles while the enemies are chasing, really put a pressure on me I really haven’t felt before. Also me screaming at the screen while that big guy tried to kill me……..yeah that was a moment.
This has been a game I've tried to find for several years now, but that is extremely difficult. Only released on the PS2, I have just not found copies of this game that are not super expensive. As of January 29, 2025 this title is worth $299 loose and $387.48 complete in box per price charting. I want to play this game legitimately and hope that GOG can deliver a PC port that would make this widely accessible to all gamers.
This game is a beautiful, creepy masterclass on making someone uncomfortable. Some of the best puzzles, a wonderful soundtrack, the best stalkers you could ask for and a dog to boot.
Haunting Ground shows you the horrors of simply being a girl, which I'm sure many of us can relate to, and it's unmatched <3
I have loved the visual style of this game and have been waiting a good chunk of my life to get to play it. I've not seen a rerelease of this fantastic title in some time and would really appreciate it. Fans of the survival horror genre would also be pleased many iconic horror titles of the era have gone too long without a place to sit down and play and we need more like this.
One of my most favorite horror games it deserves a chance to be abled to be played on GOG considering how rare and expensive it is plus more people should experience the good boy that is Hewie
By far one of the best stalker horror games ever made. Artistically and musically stunning, it engages you in an unrelenting atmosphere of paranoia and dread. The story touches upon sensitive subject matters that I feel you genuinely don't see in most other games, even to this day (and manages to handle it with the appropriate amount of gravitas and depth it deserves). I've only ever been able to play this gem on an emulator, but it's easily become one of my favorite games ever, so I'd love to be able to properly support and own it. This game deserves to be preserved, as it's a genuinely stellar and unique piece of art.
One of the best games Capcom ever made and it deserves another chance!
Everyone should have a chance to experience this game without spending a lot of money, and this would be a perfect opportunity!
This is one of the first games I bought myself back in the day, I was about 15/16. It was £10 in a second hand bin in GAME (in Scotland). I bought it because it had a dog on the cover XD! Me and my best friend at the time played it when we got back to mine. It was amazing! Daniella's chase music still freaks me out to this day!!! LOVE THIS GAME!!! HEWIE FOR THE WIN!!! XD!!!
Castlevania: Lords of ShadowGabriel Belmont learns of a mask with the power to raise the dead and sets out on a mission to obtain it to bring his recently murdered wife back from the dead.
Lords of Shadow builds upon the combat systems first explored in this series in 2003's Lament of Innocence and adds more violent kills to the mix. Inspiration for these changes seems to have come from 2005's God of War.Action Fantasy Horror

Dynasty Warriors: StrikeforceKoei brings us again a new addition to the Dynasty Warriors series. This installment still features the same storyline based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, with the various officers as playable characters. The character list and appearance is the same as in Dynasty Warriors 6, meaning some of the previous game's characters are not available.
The difference in this one is that the player is allowed to choose only one character for the chosen force (either Wei, Wu or Shu) who starts in a village that will act as the hub, or camp, from which the game battles are accessed. By completing story missions, some characters are added and can be played as without starting a new game, meaning all acquired weapons, items and materials will be kept.
The chosen character can be customized in various ways. Apart from the main weapon, one sub weapon, chosen from many weapon types, can be equipped. Both weapons can be switched anytime during battle, to accommodate the situation. A new addition is the Chi system which allows to set special abilities to the character, there are four slots to equip Chi (the two arms and legs). Weapons can also be customized by adding Orbs that give different abilities, such as elemental properties.
In the village, the player can exchange materials, buy weaponry, items for use in battle, Chi skills and Orbs. Some NPC's may appear in the village, some giving materials or items, or Officer cards, which can be set to help the Village's growth. Over time, better items can be acquired from the shops.
By talking to the quest board or the Guard at the village's gate, main Missions or Requests can be chosen. Each battle is a series of small maps where various enemy soldiers and weaponry are fought, eventually leading to the commander of the enemy army. The goal of each battle can vary, some are classic goals like "Defeat the Commander" and some, less battle oriented, like "Retrieve all treasure boxes". In addition, there also are bonus missions that require the player to defeat a particular unit, reaching a certain point before a certain time, etc. Each bonus mission gives extra experience points upon completion.
Other new additions to the battle system are the possibility to have aerial battles, and the main feature of the game: the Fury Mode, unleashed when the Fury gauge (replacing the traditional Musou gauge) is full. The furied character has better stats and move sets, and can unleash the infamous Musou attack to deal some extra damage.
To add to the surreal look of the game, some new bosses are actually massive beast-like weapons, and usually require the help of other players to defeat them. Multiplayer mode is available only via AdHoc connection, and can connect up to four players.Action Fantasy Historical

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.Trending Action Horror Science fiction Stealth Survival Mystery
