Universal & Atari ordering GOG to removing this game from sale was a mistake. I had to use a friend's GOG installer to replay this classic gem. What's the problem here?
Vin Diesel didn't get paid enough? Or they just got greedy with the rights?
please, we need to have this playable
i own it on steam but the drm makes impossible to play as the key wont work with it. we need this masterpiece preserved for the future of gaming
An incredible sequel to an incredible game. The refinements to gameplay and visuals make for a worthy follow up to an already ahead of its time game. This game also includes both games in one package, so this might be the one to preserve in the end. This is the peak of its own franchise (the movies themselves aren't anything to write home about) so please, GOG, hit up Atari and bring this franchise to your platform!!
Bought this on console and it came with escape from butcher bay which was an added bonus, so i was able to play both games. I wasn't expecting them to be as good as they were, but fair play i enjoyed them both.
A great game, sadly unavailable. You can't buy Chronicles Of Riddick anywhere but a pawnshop nowadays. Even if you acquired it on PC it has technical issues. After the Alpha Protocol story, this sounds like a perfect candidate for GOG's game resurrection wizardry.
I used to absolutely LOVE these games! Right around the time i turned 12 or 13, somewhere in there, my dad took me to see the The Chronicles of Riddick. I not only sparked my love for this universe, but lead me to Butcher Bay on the original xbox. Phenomenal stealth/action/fighter with great voice acting, fun combat, and Vin Diesel himself reprising the role of Riddick. Fast forward a few years and I was able to get my first pc with a dedicated GPU. One of the FIRST game i bought on disc was Assault on dark Athena, bundled with the aforementioned BB. I can not tell you the countless hours i poured into the two, upgrading my pc on several occasions just to get it to look better ahahaha. I cant tell you either, the amount of joy, gratitude, and damn near love i have for GoG for doing what you do... If this happens to make it to the store, you've got a guaranteed customer right here!
It was a great deal back in the day; two full games, both prequels to a cult classic sci-fi film series that felt like original, interesting games instead of a (at the time typical) direct tie-in. The first person melee, focus on stealth, interacting with characters and a fleshed out sci-fi world, all really made this a memorable game. It's a crying shame it's impossible to play right now, anywhere outside of an old console copy -- and the clock is ticking on those copies, since the hardware will fail, and the discs will break. I own a PC boxed copy but the DRM servers are down, so you can't even launch it anymore.
I'd be first in line to pick this up if it came back to GOG; we want to play it again, and we're down to give you some money for the trouble. Seems like a win-win to me.
This is one of the best and most innovative FPS games ever + It's pretty much one of the ALL TIME BEST Movie property games! Damn we need a REMASTER!!! + a Sequel!
If we can get this game back we'd also get back Escape from Butcher Bay Remastered for free, we need this back so bad...
Seriously I don't care what needs to happen it's way better than our current situation where people have to seriously consider piracy in order to play a great game.
