The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A gritty spy thriller that keeps you under pressure, blending gunplay and stealth through morally murky missions with a cold, serious tone.

About
In "Cold Winter", you play the role of Andrew Sterling, a former member of MI6, the British secret intelligence service. Andrew is caught preparing to assassinate someone in China, and is thrown into prison. There he faces torture and imminent execution. But a former friend from his MI6 days arranges to rescue him and offers him a job, having planned in advance to manipulate him so that he is unable to refuse. The first task seems fairly ordinary: to track down a weapons dealer who has been supplying terrorists.
What players say
A surprisingly fun, old-school PS2 shooter praised as an underrated hidden gem for its satisfying gore and physics, with straightforward run-and-gun action. Held back by imprecise controls and heavy screen-shake, but visceral and enjoyable throughout.
