I think there is already one on GOG. I was just looking the other day.

Nevermind, it does not appear to be a remastered version.

GOG version is the old uncut AO version, which doesn't support high-res's + high-textures out the box. There are unofficial mods out to change that stuff, though.

The new version from Aspyr is going to be on Steam, it'll be the AO version that has now got re-rated to M, has high-res support, and have some improved textures.

I previously played Fahrenheit, the one that had the sex stuff. Those sex simulator parts were just weird.

I agree.   I also remember thinking the game was okay until I beat it.  At that point I realised it sucked balls.   Not sure what happened there, but I won't be playing this again ever.

It was a shame. The game started out completely awesome. It was certainly the most cinematic game I'd ever played up to that point and maybe only a game or two since has beaten it in that category. I still remember the part where you go to meet someone in a cemetery. As you walked in the cemetery, the view split into three different angles. It was a cool effect and it and the music really helped to set the mood during that part of the game.

Then the story went completely off the rails. I finished it, but I agree that it went out with a simper.

Oh yeah, that's why - the entire premise went to shit.  I can't remember how or why, but that was definitely it.   Honestly, I think are feelings mirror each other - I loved the style a lot - and then the whole thing just crashed for me.

Yeah, fantastic game up through about the first half. Then it started to go downhill, but it still would have been a great game had it not completely gone batshit crazy stupid in the last 10 minutes. Such a disappointment. And yes, the sex simulation stuff was just ... weird and out of place. I went to some lengths to get the uncut version, but after playing, I'd have preferred the censored one I think.

I agree, I'd go for Indigo Prophecy at this point, which was the cut version.
