Silver was an amazing action rpg published and developed by Infogrames in 1999 for PC and Sega Dreamcast.

Few years ago I remember I got the game up and running under Windows XP, sadly, there was a bug\glitch in the middle of the game that made it unplayable past that point and some minor visual glitches too.
Despite not running very good under XP it runs quite fine under Vista and Seven!
We all know that there are other Infogrames published titles here on GOG, like Outcast or Alone in the Dark.
I'd love to see Silver on GOG. It's a great game, and when I say great I mean it's a game that stand side by side with masterpieces like Oucast, Another World, Little Big Adventure and so on in my mind.
I think the game is not already on GOG because there's quite an effort to make a working release on XP, and maybe GOG team doesn't think it's worth the trouble, as the game is quite underrated. Still it works on Vista and I'm going to try with Seven too.
If you know and love Silver, this is a thread about the game! Discuss! And make GOG team hear your voice if you want this game published too :-)
If you don't know this game, even just the intro video will surely convince you about how good and glorious it was.
Here's the wonderful game intro:

And here's a gameplay video that includes the game intro for the italian speaking users like me ;) the game had amazing european dubs too, with full voice acting

I'll be glad even just to get to replay the english version
