This is one of my favorite hip-hop inspired graffiti games, so many classic hip-hop tunes on it and there's not many titles like this out there, it's really one of its kind and it has an occult following for huge hip-hop heads like me and I'd definitely love to see this title on GOG
„Marc Ecko’s Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure” is an absolute gem of a game that perfectly blends graffiti culture, hip-hop, and a gripping story. The atmosphere, music, and gameplay create an experience that stands out even today. From tagging the city to outmaneuvering the oppressive authorities, every moment feels immersive and unique.
It would be amazing to see this game available on GOG, giving more players the chance to experience this underrated classic. While it’s currently on Steam, having a DRM-free version here would be a dream come true for many fans. Hopefully, GOG can make this happen!
Le seul et l'unique jeux de graffiti au monde il n'en existe aucun autres alors que le graffiti et present depuis la prehistorique et y'a des legende du graffiti comme cope2 seen futura 2000 etc je les saignez et recommencer 100x sur ps2 toujour aussi bon faudrait 1 suite ou un remastered
The first time I experienced this game was through a demo CD that came with a gaming magazine—instantly, I was hooked. A couple of years later, I got lucky when a friend gave me his copy because he didn’t like it. To this day, we still argue about it, because honestly, I can't understand how anyone—especially someone into hip-hop and graffiti culture—couldn't appreciate what this game brought to the table.
Getting Up is more than just a game; it’s a raw, stylish tribute to street art and urban expression. The soundtrack, the atmosphere, the message—it all clicked with me. While the gameplay and controls may feel a bit outdated by today’s standards, they’re still solid and well-executed for their time. It doesn’t take long to get used to, and once you’re in the rhythm, it really works.
It’s not perfect, but it’s got soul—and that’s something you don’t see often in games anymore. Marc Ecko's Getting Up captures a moment in time, a subculture, and a creative movement with authenticity and respect. It’s a game that absolutely needs to be preserved for future generations, not just as entertainment, but as a cultural artifact. If you have any love for graffiti, hip-hop, or the rebellious spirit of street culture, this game is a must-play.

Sonic Riders: Zero GravitySonic Riders: Zero Gravity is a hoverboard racing video game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for the PlayStation 2 and Wii. It is the fifth racing game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, and the second entry the Sonic Riders trilogy. A port for the Xbox 360 was cancelled during development, while a sequel, Sonic Free Riders, was released exclusively for that system in 2010.
Gameplay in Zero Gravity is largely similar to its predecessor, with characters racing on different types of hovercraft called "Extreme Gear". In addition to the mechanics from the previous game, Zero Gravity adds a new gameplay system based around gravity that replaces the predecessor's "fuel" system. During the race, performing tricks and other actions will increase a character's Gravity Points, or GP. If players have accrued enough GP by the time they enter certain areas of the track, they will enter a Zero-Gravity Zone, where they can perform one of two maneuvers. A Gravity Dive will create a small black hole that points gravity forward down the track, giving the player a powerful free-fall boost that is further augmented by striking objects in the vicinity that the hole displaces, such as cars or signs. Alternatively, Gravity Control will alter the gravity of the course, allowing players to reach otherwise-inaccessible areas and shortcuts. Players can also use Gravity Drift to more easily maneuver around sharp corners.Action Fantasy Comedy

Twisted Metal: Black OnlineFirst offered as a freebie in the United States with purchase of a PlayStation 2 Network Adapter for its initial release (and later included again for free as part of the Greatest Hits package for Twisted Metal: Black,) this online version of the hit car combat game features all of the cars and carnage of the original game across all 18 stages (including all full stages and mini-stages from the full game) of TM:B. The violent cinemas and story mode were excluded in this network-only version (partially to tone the ESRB rating down to a T), but the multiplayer modes for online play still include all four modes -- deathmatch, last man standing, collector, and manhunt -- and options for power relic modifiers can be turned on to twist this evil game out even more.
Online play originally was limited to only 4 players (2 over 56k), and chat functionality was not included. However, via server fixes, the player count was upped to 8 online via broadband, and a chat function via USB keyboard/on-screen input was also made unlockable when a secret code is entered on the lobby screen.Action
