Snatcher:

I remember playing thru this whole game one rainy day, curled in bed with rain spattering and the wood stove crackling away.
It was...magical.
...which is a strange word to use to describe a violent, stylish, edge of your seat blade-runner-esque visual novel/shooting gallery. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" title="Rolling Eyes">
Metal gear is definitely a more original, polished, and ambitious work...but honestly, Snatcher did way more for me than gear ever did, though I'm not entirely sure why. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused">
Highly recommended, albeit hard to find... <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="8-)" title="Cool">
