I don't know English, but everything was cool. When I was a kid, this game was so special. I was so into it that I ended up watching the ending every day. The opening briefing is wonderful because it feels like it's carrying out a great mission. In the ending, the line "Let's go home" couldn't be so cool. Why isn't there a game like this anymore? Nostelgia. Please bring this game to gog.
The PC version of the game has a great soundtrack by Rick Ede. The pulsing rhythm is perfect set to the frames of the game. The sound effects are well embedded into the soundtrack that it feels like part of the music. The voices are well chosen. The ship control is a bit intransparent in a few parts of the game. Its like a one-hour-action-show. In a PC magazine they wrote the developers build the levels using LEGO stones before they build it in 3D.
I first played the 3DO version. I love the two soundtracks a lot. This one has a very cool soundtrack with epic moments near the end. The End is so, so epic. Better than the 3DO. There is some differences in the last levels, but the game is almost the same. The weapons upgrade system is good (Much better than the 3DO) and the female computer voice is a charm.
The Opening scene is very complete explaining the situation. But not as pompous as in the 3DO.
The Eclipse scene is really epic in the second planet :D
The last levens in the Scarab-X station are thrilling with stages with avoiding obstacles during furious guitar solos or Space Odyssey graphics with hypnotic music. Rik Ede did a great job here.
Very very recommended for sci-fi fans.
probably one of the first titles i had on the original PlayStation. always enjoyed playing it as a kid and would love to play it again. back then i thought it had the coolest graphics, it was absolutely amazing even today still looks super cool. the soundtrack was awesome too.

Half-Life 2: Episode OneHalf-Life 2: Episode One is the first of a planned trilogy of expansion packs/episodes for the 2004 first-person shooter game, Half-Life 2. The episode takes place immediately after the end of Half-Life 2, in the war-torn setting of City 17. The player is forced to deal with the effects of their actions during the main game. The episode is a stand-alone game; while a continuation of Half-Life 2, it does not require the original game to be installed or registered to a user's Steam account to play. It takes advantage of several major upgrades to the Source engine since the release of Half-Life 2, primarily its high dynamic range rendering capabilities and the upgraded facial animation system.
Episode One was released together with Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, a port of the original Half-Life's multiplayer, which doubles as Episode One's multiplayer component. The retail copies of Episode One also come with Half-Life 2 Deathmatch for those who have not previously purchased the later title.Action Horror Science fiction

Half-Life: UplinkHalf-Life: Uplink is a demo version of Valve's 1998 first-person shooter computer game Half-Life.
Uplink features many of the common enemies, characters, and weapons from the full game, but unlike the first Half-Life demo and the Half-Life 2 demo, the location and scenario in this demonstration do not appear in Half-Life. The Uplink chapters were cut during Half-Life's development phase and roughly fit in prior to or during the Lambda Core chapter; they were, however, strongly revised for the demo release. Uplink also includes the same Hazard Course from the full release of Half-Life.
It was also included on "Official PlayStation Magazine Disc 57" as a bonus unlock if you entered a cheat into the PS2 version of Half-Life and swapped the discs.Action Science fiction
