I played a demo version of Wild Wild West: The Steel Assassin taken from one of Polish gaming magazines (Gambler, I guess) and it amazed me from the very beginning. It was a tasty mixture of spaghetti western and steampunk themes, solid voice acting, powerful sounds of weapons, cool gadgets etc. Few years later I watched the original motion picture with Will Smith and Kevin Cline on VHS tape. I consider it one of the most underrated movies of its time and probably already forgotten by many. It was fun, original and well executed. I hope I'm not the only one who enjoyed the movie and the game and I hope it gets some love from gaming community, which it undoubtedly deserves.
Another important target for preservation. Every abandonware copies of this game floating around the net are corrupted on the Gordon side of the game. The corruption would crash the game no matter how you try to run it, preventing you from seeing the ending since you need to progress both Gordon side and James side to converge in the final chapter.
Those games also need your vote!
