Blast Corps is a rather creative game for it's time. You have to destroy whatever in the path of a missile truck. You are getting a lot of vehicles to use. There's a good variety what you do within the stages. The difficulty spike is a little off at times. But this game can be quite strict forcing you to had to adapt faster. It's so satisfying to destroy stuff. The soundtrack works better than expected. Some fantastic sound effects to keep the game exciting. Blast Corps simply does wonders even for an early N64 game. This also was included in Rare Replay. I do think a lot of people would enjoy this on GOG.
Warning! Time to get moving D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. Try something different. Over here. Help help. Nice work. Now you're just trying to impress me.

as a n64 exclusive, made by rare, the odds of this game ever coming to pc is probably less than zero. but still, this game should be preserved and made available. blast corps is pure destructive action fun. can still hear the music, the sound effects and whatnot even after a few decades since playing the game. it needs to be made available on pc platforms, its truly, time to get moving!
Those games also need your vote!

Shining Force Gaiden: Ensei - Jashin no Kuni he
Shining Force Gaiden: Ensei - Jashin no Kuni heShining Force Gaiden is a turn-based tactical RPG. Battles take place in square grids, and each unit occupies 1 square. Units can belong to one of two sides: allies (controlled by the player) or enemies (controlled by the computer AI). Each unit can move up to a fixed amount of squares along the battlefield, determined by its Move statistic. Depending on its location relative to enemies and to allies, a unit also has the option to attack, cast a spell, use an item, search (if adjacent to a treasure chest), or stay and do nothing, all of which end the unit's turn. Some commands, such as equipping or dropping items, don't count as actions, and the character's turn is able to continue. The order of the turns is determined by the unit's agility score and a random seed. Units can use offensive actions, such as physical attacks or offensive magic, only on units belonging to the other side and can use supportive actions, such as healing magic, stat-enhancing magic, and items, only on units belonging to the same side. This game (together with Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya) was later given a remake named Shining Force CD, released on the Sega CD. This remake also saw a western release to both North America and Europe and the full english title was "Shining Force Gaiden: Towards the Root of Evil". In 2013 the Game Gear original game got ported to the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console (Japan only).

Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire
Quest for Glory V: Dragon FireAfter having survived the dangers he encountered on his previous journey, the hero travels with the wizard Erasmus to a Greece-like country called Silmaria. Its king was recently murdered, and, according to the land's traditions, the crown will be given to the one who passes a contest known as the Rites of Rulership. The hero enters the contest, aided by Erasmus, Rakeesh, and other old friends. However, as the competition progresses, contestants are being systematically killed by an unknown assassin. All the victims are murdered near the Dragon Pillars, which keep the Dragon of Silmaria in captivity. The hero must investigate the crimes and save Silmaria from a grave danger. Dragon Fire is the final game in the Quest for Glory series. Like the previous games in the series, Dragon Fire is a hybrid between puzzle-solving adventure and role-playing game. The player talks to the world's inhabitants, gathering clues and items necessary to acquire in order to complete the quests and advance the story. Unlike all its predecessors, Dragon Fire has no separate battle screens; the action-based battles take place on the exploration screen, utilizing a simple point-and-click interface, similarly to Diablo. The game has heavier weapon and armor management than other Quest for Glory games, strengthening the RPG angle. Many quests are optional or can be completed in different ways. The hero can also marry one of the several major female characters in the game, provided the player does the right thing to impress the girl.
