The first game I ever bought for PC (there was a TV story about it). Unfortunately I didn't play it until a few years later because my computer didn't have a 3D accelerator :) It was worth the wait though. I still have the CD version, unfortunately it won't run on new Windows systems.

Very neat little arcade title. You control a ship and you run around the map, shooting enemies and solving some puzzles. The game is tricky to get it working properly on modern machines since the game speed is tied to the processor frequency which means that there are some areas that you cannot get past unless you limit your processor speed. I hope to see this game here on GOG working on modern operating systems. :)

A ridiculously charming PSone and PC classic I knew here in Australia by its alternate title "Overboard", managing to combine ship based exploration and combat together with a delightfully tropical soundtrack, excellent visuals, and charming voice clips that add a level of whimsy to plundering the high seas. It's a game that deserves a second chance to be played by a larger audience.

Shenmue I & II
Shenmue I & II"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”."
