The best version of the game. We need this game with a great remaster. Perhaps a remaster similar to "rtx remix" works as "Half Life 2 RTX" with Ray Tracing, ambient occlusion, improved textures, and not just a resolution boost. Also that admits ultra wide screens and HDR for a better experience. Please listen to the community and bring this game to GOG.
why is manhunt 2 cool 1. Historical Significance Manhunt 2 was not just another violent video game. It became a lightning rod for discussions about video game censorship, freedom of artistic expression, and the line between interactivity and morality. Its banning in multiple countries and rating struggles in the U.S. (originally receiving an AO—Adults Only—rating) caused significant disruption. Rockstar was forced to cut and blur parts of the game just to secure an M rating from the ESRB. This is important history. Games are art, and like any other art form, they deserve to be documented and studied—not swept under the rug. The uncut PC version, originally available in limited release, represents the truest vision of what the developers intended. For scholars, critics, and mature players, access to this version matters. GOG, with its mission of preserving classics, would be the ideal home for such a release. 2. A Unique Experience in Game Design Unlike Rockstar's more famous open-world titles like Grand Theft Auto, Manhunt 2 is a slow-paced, methodical stealth game that emphasizes survival and immersion over chaos and freedom. Players control Daniel Lamb, a mentally unstable man trying to piece together his past after escaping from a secretive asylum. The narrative is twisted, but also psychologically deep—it’s more about the fragility of identity and trauma than mindless violence. The game challenges players not only to survive but to think critically, using shadows, distractions, and silence to outmaneuver enemies. It blends horror with stealth in ways few games have attempted since. While there are moments of brutality, they’re deeply intertwined with the protagonist’s descent into madness—serving a narrative purpose rather than being gratuitous. The uncut version makes this clearer, as its rawness reflects Daniel’s internal chaos without artificial filters or censorship.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the PatriotsMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the final canonical Metal Gear game to feature Solid Snake as the main character. The gameplay of the previous games have been kept along with some new features, such as the ability to roll on your back and also to hide in bins scattered around the environment. Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.

Shogun: Total War
Shogun: Total WarSet against the backdrop of the Sengoku Jidai (Warring States) period from the 15th to the beginning of the 17th century, Shogun: Total War is a real-time tactics and turn-based strategy game with a strong focus on historical authenticity. Players assume control of a daimyo (leader) of a contemporary Japanese clan and attempt to conquer the nation and claim the title of supreme Shogun, the undisputed military ruler of Japan. The gameplay consist of two parts – a turn-based Risk-style mode on a 2D campaign map of Japan where the player must recruit, manage and move their armies, conduct diplomacy, trade, espionage, sabotage and assassinations. This 2D map however ultimately serves to provide context for the 3D real-time battles that make up the main part of the game and occur whenever your army crosses into enemy territory or two opposing forces meet on the campaign map.

Stella Deus: The Gate of Eternity
Stella Deus: The Gate of EternityStella Deus is a story-driven tactical role-playing game in which the player controls a group of characters both picked up during the course of the story and in side events. The world is navigated using an overworld map using point-to-point navigation, with a date system showing the length of time it takes to get to a selected location. Alongside the story missions, Towns can be visited, in which characters can customize and create new weapons and armor, sell existing equipment in exchange for money, and shop for items such as healing potions. In camps set up on a journey, characters can swap out weapons and armor, equip items such as healing potions and beneficial charms for future battles. Special items used in character leveling can also be crafted by the player. Alongside story-based missions, there is a special dungeon called the Catacomb of Trials, where characters can battle and gain experience levels, raising their general statistics. The number of available levels in the Catacomb increases as players progress through the game. Each character has a specific character class, which they keep throughout the game and continue to level up as they gain experience points (XP). Higher amounts of XP are awarded for executing special abilities. Along with swordsmen and archers, there are alchemists (mages), priests (healers), and units who fight using most things from axes to fists. Most battles are triggered based on story events, and are completed when the stated object has been accomplished by the player, be it defeating all enemies, defeating a boss, or performing a specific task. At the end of each battle, the players gain a summery of their performance and spoils gained. The game uses the turn-based Replaceable Action Position battle system, much of which was carried over from the battle system used in Hoshigami: Ruining Blue Earth. Players navigate the field across a grid-based map, which can include obstacles such as bodies of water and high structures. Character positioning within the environment can be used to their advantage, such as an archer gaining higher accuracy when at a high point in the level. Character actions are arranged in a set order, and each character's weapon dictates their attack range. Each time a character performs an action, they gain experience points and additional Skill Points (SP) that can be used to purchase supplies or raise individual character stats. Three types of Skills can be equipped for characters: Action Skills, a special attack that player execute for a certain amount of Magic Points (MP); Support Skills, which grant passive abilities such as scaling higher obstacles; and Zone Skills, which grant passive abilities to both the equipped character and those in close proximity to them. Alongside Action Skills, two or more characters in conjunction trigger unique special moves called Team Attacks. The amount of damage done depends on how many characters took part in the action. Team attacks also increase the rewards gained at the end of battles. Characters' actions are governed by their stored Action Points (AP): a character's turn begins when their AP meter is at 100. A character's actions can continue until the meter reaches 0, meaning that they can move and attack multiple times within their turn. The amount of AP used with each action depends on the weight of the armor the character is wearing.
