As a game based on a movie IP goes this is probably one of, if not, the most faithful to ever be produced. From the very first intro cutscene there is no doubt as to where you are, who you are and what you need to do. What immediately jumps out is the attention to detail. Character models, locations, missions etc are all movie authentic. Weapons are even held on the left hand side of the screen because Bruce Willis/John McClane was left handed, a detail that many don't even notice from the actual movie. Even over 20 years later I still remember this game and the fun I had being immersed into the actual movie, not something loosely based on the film or a weird spin-off or prequel story etc. This game, for all it's low budget quirks, actually let you "play the movie".
I'm not voting for this game, only share my memory. Game should be renamed "Die Hard - BUG-atomy Plaza" because of the bugs in the game engine. The voice of John McClane is fair to mediocre compared to the movie. The only thing they did right was Sgt. Al Powell. Too expensive back then for the quality of the game. I would like for GOG to stay away from this game. There's no point in preserve this game. If a 'Die Hard' game needs to be preserved, please make it so for the "Die Hard 3" movie game.

Armored Core: Last Raven Portable
Armored Core: Last Raven PortableIn the wake of the now defunct Navis's failed attempt to control recovered ancient weapons technology, the world has been left in tatters. Looking to consolidate power, the Corporations (Crest, Mirage, and Kisaragi) have merged into one super-corporation known as "The Alliance". Fed up with corporate rule and oppression, and seeing a newfound threat in The Alliance, a Raven known as Jack-O (an important but minor character from Armored Core: Nexus) forms an organization of Ravens known as "Vertex" from the ashes of the fallen Raven's Ark. After rallying a sizable force of fellow Ravens to his cause, Jack-O declares that he will launch an all-out war on the Alliance in 24 hours. Leading the opposing force, a Raven named Evangel has rallied just as many Ravens to the Alliance and is preparing to fight Jack-O head on. Making matters all the more complicated, many Ravens have turned into independent warlords, setting out on their own after the collapse of Raven's Ark. To finish this volatile situation: you. You are approached by both sides seeking your cooperation. Will you side with the Corporations, or assist Vertex in causing their downfall? You have a choice to make, Raven.
