When I First Heard Of This Game, I Thought It Would Be Something Different Compared To Halo On Xbox, When I Bought It, It Was Literally A Blast! The Game Mechanics Had Amazing Explosive Animation, The Idea Blowing Up Cars And Such Was So Cool. The Storyline, Music, Weapons, All Was So Badazz! Sadly, We Never Got A Sequel, Muchless A Multiplayer Side Release, This Game Deserved So Much More, It Became Forgotten, And Deserves A Modding Community To Help Bring In Better Updated Visuals And A Multiplayer Mode! Remaster This ASAP!
Classic! One of the best ps2 era games, so cool playing this, especially on harder difficulties, lost count of many times I beaten this gem. This definitely should be on PC!
This is a Playstation 2 classic, to this day everyone talks about it. It should have a PC version. I really liked this game, I remember when I was a kid dying horrors in this game.

L'un des jeux les mieux réalisés sur PS2 et Xbox avec un univers totalement destructible, accompagné d'effets spéciaux spectaculaires : les bâtiments partent en ruines, les objets explosent ainsi qu'un gros travail sur la modélisation des armes et l'éjection des douilles.
Uns dos melhores jogos de ação e guerra da EA Games com Criterion Games! É IMPOSSÍVEL ESQUECER ESSE JOGO E O QUÃO BOM FOI na época de PS2. Meu Deus... que nostalgia meus amigos.
Dust, bullet holes, explosions and environments coming apart! It may not not have been Bad Company 1, but it came out a few years earlier and it was on PS2. For the time, it felt fantastic. I also remember the story being quite interesting, but really the gameplay and visuals are what lived in my mind all these years.
Eu joguei muito esse jogo memorias boas inesquecíveis queria muito que a gog eu ia agradece muito a gog e eles colocasse o BLACK aqui, muita gente q jogou o black saber como e a memoria dele top de mais tiro pra todo o lado kkk , Um dos melhores q ja joguei.
Black é o melhor jogo de FPS do PS2 sem duvidas ja tem meu voto. Espero que consigam trazer esse lendario jogo de PS2 para o GOG sem duvidas vai dar muito retorno
Um jogão desses nunca ter recebido um porte para PC é realmente uma pena, pois ele é um dos melhores FPS já feitos, joguei demais no PS2, gameplay, historia, gráficos, jogabilidade, tudo é muito bom nesse game, espero muito um porte dele para o PC e poder jogar na melhor qualidade possivel!!!
Those games also need your vote!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Kid Icarus: Uprising
Kid Icarus: UprisingOne of the most beloved franchises in Nintendos long history makes its glorious return in spectacular 3D! Pit of Kid Icarus fame is back in a new game designed specifically for the Nintendo 3DS system, by Masahiro Sakurai, creator of the Kirby and Super Smash Bros. franchises, and his development team at Project Sora. Kid Icarus: Uprising is a fast-paced and action-packed blend of aerial and ground-based shooting built on elegantly intuitive and streamlined play control. This follow-up to the original Kid Icarus released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1987 has been at the top of gamers wish lists for years. Boasting gameplay that is easy to pick up but incredibly deep, the game is sure to satisfy novice gamers as well as fans who have been clamouring for a new installment in the franchise. The hero, Pit, teams up with Palutena, the goddess of light, who bestows on him the miracle of flight for limited stretches. With this gift, Pit soars through the skies, shooting down swarms of enemies, then alights and engages in frantic ground-based battles against Medusas underworld army. Find and collect numerous weapons and items that offer bonuses and ability boosts. Players can choose weapons before they send Pit into battle, giving them countless layers of strategies in each level. Players can choose between a basic Blade, basic Claws and a basic Orbitar weapon. Blades are well-balanced, Claws have limited reach but increase running speed and the Orbitars can shoot two shots that grow in power over distance.

The Godfather II
The Godfather IIAfter being promoted by Michael Corleone to Don of New York, players expand to new cities, as they build up their families through extorting businesses, monopolizing illegal crime rings and defeating new families in an effort to become the most powerful mob family in America. To help players manage their empire, The Godfather II introduces "The Don's View" - an innovative strategy meta-game that allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business. Using the Don's View, players will be able to build, defend and expand their crime rings, while keeping an eye on the movements and plans of the rival families. Players will also learn to master the business of organized crime by building a family of Made Men, hiring crew, handing out orders, and promoting their best men up the ranks. Set in a stunning open-world environment, The Godfather II expands on the popular gameplay mechanics of the first game and doubles down on the series' signature BlackHand control scheme, which now features even more visceral hand-to-hand brutality at your fingertips, introducing a new combo system, pressure tactics and executions. In The Godfather II, players fight alongside their hand-picked crew, who have their own skills and expertise. Each family member specializes in a specific field such as demolitions, arson, engineering, first-aid and more. As The Don you control the family, sending some of your men on missions while heading off into action with others. The combination of strategic organized crime gameplay and brutal BlackHand action promises to set The Godfather II apart from other open-world games. Play The Godfather II online multiplayer modes and become the true Don of Dons. Take your money, weapons, and crew from your single-player experience online and wage mob warfare against up to 16 players from around the world. Play as one of the family's crew specialists and put your best strategies to the test as you take over territory and strike back at rivals. Earn upgrades and money that can be used in your single-player experience.
