The gothic elements on this game were top notch for his age, also the performance on the voice acting was surprising for being a PS1 game, gameplay could be annoying but felt satisfying once being overpowered or taking advantage of buffs and -debuffs, the characters got charm and its a pretty underrated cult game. Please bring it to GOG aside of having it DRM-free so other people can experience it.

I buy'd this for like 30€ for my PS 2. It's a very charming game from a forgotten developer. The systems are clunky but were really cool to play around with. The secrets are still blowing my mind (save the game at 01:11:11 and if you reload you get an exclusive item! Sounds like a total playground rumor but it actually works here!) The voice acting is surprisingly good and I had a lot of fun with it. I hope others have the chance to relive this.

Man oh man i would love to play this gem again. I remeber it had like 6 discs or something for the PS1 and i was so scared to play it, wanted my mother to be next to me :D The story was insane, the battle styles and the bosses - "Gooooood soup" had me going up and down. Would love the chance to replay it

I bought this game from a friend on playstation when i was still in school. Now i am almost 40 and still play it on my ps3 which can read my psx disks. Its a superb mix of strategy and horror. Even my mom played it back in the days.

a good game, a clever mix of turn-based rpg and survival with weapons that deteriorate with use and ammunition to find for the guns. riddles that get the brain working without being overpowering, it's the kind of game we should be seeing more of these days. I hope the game will be re-released on GOG and played again, with good quality French voice actors.

I really, really want to play it not on an emulator. It is one of those unique PS1 era games that got undeservedly forgotten. The re-release of all Shadow Hearts games would be great, too!
this game absolutely needs to be brought back,it is pretty much criminal to have forgotten this amazing game,just like the shadow hearts series,please bring them all back

a very rare game that i randomly stumbled upon back then i never understood what it was so i just bought the game just to find out the third disc doesn't work at all so i had to buy another copy which was fine. it definitely felt like a fantastic dark horror rpg game that you can literally rename anything like weapons and certain items. which was hilarious cause i remember acquiring a bible a weapon and renamed it the bible thumper! it was great since one of the main character was a priest like character that could easily bring the wrath of god upon his enemies lmfao! i love how you could add stat points into characters after they level up which was fantastic like diablo idea. need this game to be put into GoG for such a rare game and treasure! it must be protected at all cost!
This game is amazing, with an annoying gameplay sometimes, but fantastic lore and bosses (the final one is the hardest), and i really wish there were more games like that.
Those games also need your vote!

Shrek 2
Shrek 2Game based on the second movie, developed by the makers of Vigilante 8. Shrek is on a journey to meet his in-laws, so Shrek 2 follows his adventure to Far Away Land and the chaos that ensues once Fiona's parents learn that their precious daughter is an ogre -- and is married to the crudest of them all. Shrek 2 features a mixture of puzzle solving and enemy bashing. Players are able to control one of four characters at any given time -- swapping between them at will. Each character has a set of basic attack moves and a special ability. Donkey has a "Burro Blast" that can knock down large objects, Shrek can pick up and throw heavy objects, and Fiona -- in a nod to her fight scene in the first movie -- can slow down time, Matrix-style.

Spec Ops II: Omega Squad
Spec Ops II: Omega SquadSpec Ops is an military video game franchise, created by Zombie Studios. The games have primarily been launched on the PC, PlayStation and Dreamcast systems. The first titles in the series were developed by Zombie Studios, and later titles by Runecraft. The same goes for publishers: initially the games were published by Ripcord Games, and later by Take-Two Interactive. Other developers and publishers have since been brought in for spin-off titles and sequels[1] The Spec Ops franchise was intended to introduce a realistic first/third-person shooter experience and immerse the player in a two-man team gameplay. The first two games were well received; and the PlayStation and Dreamcast sequels, developed by Runecraft, received lower review scores.[2] The latest game in the series, Spec Ops: The Line, was highly acclaimed for its narrative, based on the novel Heart of Darkness.
