Story:"Originally released for the Dreamcast in 2000 and 2001, Shenmue I & II is an open world action adventure combining jujitsu combat, investigative sleuthing, RPG elements, and memorable mini-games. It pioneered many aspects of modern gaming, including open world city exploration, and was the game that coined the Quick Time Event (QTE). It was one of the first games with a persistent open world, where day cycles to night, weather changes, shops open and close and NPCs go about their business all on their own schedules. Its engrossing epic story and living world created a generation of passionate fans, and the game consistently makes the list of “greatest games of all time”."Show more

Shenmue 3 already on GOG. I felt the first two Shenmue games also belongs here. Originally on Sega Dreamcast such an unique franchise. For a long time, there wasn't anything like this. Shenmue series was surprisingly deep with everything. You get to explore around Japan and later China. You learn new moves as you play the games. There's several mini games with Arcade games being actual Sega games. Yakuza later Like a Dragon series was given a torch from Shenmue. We already have a lot of those games on here. I don't see why Shenmue 1 & 2 wouldn't sell well here. Both of them are so packed with content to keep you busy for hours.

This is a masterpiece of video games & the peak of games visuals in 1999. This game deserves to be kept playable forever. In addition, this version is multilingual, contrary to the original.

The two best video games I have ever experienced, though the term "video game" doesn't really do them justice. The Shenmue saga is interactive art at its best. The combination of grounded in-game environments, gameplay that changes to suit each particular moment in the story, one of the most beautiful soundtracks for anything ever made, and the general absence of objective markers and checklists and such make Shenmue I & II transcendent experiences that bridge the gap between player and protagonist and take both on an epic journey of self-discovery. Nothing else has ever come close to this. More people need to experience Shenmue for themselves and Shenmue I & II is the best place for them to start. Shenmue III is already on GOG, but to fully appreciate the third entry, you must experience the first two. SEGA dropped the ball by leaving the first game on the commercially unsuccessful Dreamcast from 1999 until 2018. If they'd ported it to PS2 in 2000 or 2001, they'd have easily made a profit, but we all know what SEGA is like when it comes to making decisions, don't we? The more places Shenmue I & II are available for purchase, the better.

These games are masterpieces. All people should play them. Are awesome in all departments: Story, characters, playability, music, direction, etc. It should be available in all platforms.
Shenmue 3 is already on GOG so I want 1+2 here so I can complete my collection through GOG! Been a fan of these games for over 14 years now and have replayed all 3 of them at least 6 times each. Will happily do another playthrough if 1+2 come on here.
That fact that Shenmue III is on GOG right now should be reason enough to put these masterpieces up for sale DRM free and all. They already removed Denuvo on the steam versions and a native 60fps version with help from the GOG Preservation Program would go a long way.
Those games also need your vote!
Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy VIIIFinal Fantasy VIII is the eighth main installment in the Final Fantasy series. The gameplay makes a departure from many series standards. While it still uses the Active Time Battle system, it deviates from the series' traditional means of boosting a character's power via leveling, although levels are not completely abandoned as they were in Final Fantasy II. In addition, it does not have a Magic Point-based system for spell-casting. Instead, magic is collected, drawn, and created from items, and is used to power up the characters via the junction system.

The story of this game is identical to that of "Anode Tamer".

The full collection of monsters can be achieved only if you complete both games.
