Story:Devil May Cry 3 marks the return of the world’s toughest demon slayer, Dante, in a riveting new game marked by complex storylines, striking graphics and unadulterated stylistic action. As a prequel to the first Devil May Cry, the story unfolds an earlier chapter in Dante’s history, to a fateful clash with his evil twin brother. In addition to its characteristic fast paced action, the game increases the intensity with a new "style" system. It adds more depth to gameplay and allows players to choose between short-range, long-range, defensive or evasive play styles. Each system has its own range of features and players can power up their favorite style for increased special attack abilities. Special Edition feature: Now play as Dante’s twin Vergil!Show more

DMC3 Special Edition's a contender for my favorite game ever so have to vote for its return. The old PC port is a busted piece of junk on its own, but with the mods for it, it's got a lot of great additions from fans that really improve the gameplay such as style switching for Dante, and the addition of DMC4 style inertia on moves.
I originally experienced this on the Switch and it has to be like Top 10- maybe even Top 5 games of all time for me. From the music to the gameplay to the story, all of it can be described with 3 words: Smokin' Sexy Style.
Why Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening – Special Edition (OG PC Port) Deserves to Be on GOG and Why It’s a Great Game
Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening – Special Edition is widely regarded as one of the greatest action games of all time—and for good reason. As a prequel to the original Devil May Cry, it dives into the origins of Dante and his rivalry with his twin brother Vergil. With its tight combat, stylish mechanics, and high skill ceiling, DMC3 redefined what hack-and-slash games could be.
The original PC port, despite some technical limitations when it first launched, still brought the full experience to PC players: fast-paced combo-based action, cinematic storytelling, and an iconic soundtrack. The Special Edition added major improvements over the original console version, including the ability to play as Vergil, a revamped difficulty system, and quality-of-life changes that balanced challenge with accessibility.
Having the OG PC version on GOG would not only preserve a key piece of Capcom and action game history, but also give it the DRM-free respect it deserves. GOG’s platform would allow players to revisit the roots of modern character-action games in a format that’s both accessible and respectful to the original experience—especially for fans of physical and legacy-style preservation.
Devil May Cry 3: SE is a masterpiece of gameplay design, full of unforgettable boss fights, over-the-top style, and raw energy. Its arrival on GOG would cement its legacy in the PC gaming world as the definitive version for collectors and purists alike.
um dos melhores jogos que tive a oportunidade de jogar no ps2, seria um sonho jogar ele nativamente no PC com todos os comandos no teclado e mouse. DMC3 é um dos melhores da franquia certamente o que o torna mais especial é que ele relembra a minha infância.
Objectively the best of the DMCs and the one with the most sovl. Rockin OST, memorable characters, great gameplay mechanics. This is one of the best games on PS2. Really ought to be available here if possible at all.
I'd rather have people f@#k!ng requested this through the DMC HD collection, since SourceNext and Ubisoft port is just garbage. For some reason, it won't run and keeping it as a preservation is just not an option for this, since the HD Collection of the third game is basically THIS BUT BETTER!
Asking for just one game is not an option. Because it's just the same.
Oh yeah the most badass game ever. Devil May Cry 3 Dante's Awakening. Probably the best game in the entire devil may cry series. You play as Dante an easy going chill guy who loves to party and have fun even during combat. I have cleared this game for the first time, back when I was Playing it on steam. I have cleared this game completely, collected all blue orb fragments, all statues broken , all special missions cleared, all upgrades bought, all costumes unlocked both as Dante and Vergil, but god Vergil's Trickster Jump was the real pain to do. But I somehow was able to do it. This game needs to be added here on GOG for other players to enjoy, cause this is the classic, that needs to be played and never forgotten.
AbuseAbuse resembles a side-scrolling platform game. The game is marked for its unusual control scheme: The keyboard is used to move Nick, while the mouse is used for aiming the weapons.

Shin Megami Tensei IIFifty years have passed since the hero of Shin Megami Tensei followed the neutral path, defeated the leaders of Law and Chaos, and founded a state where followers of both ideologies could live freely. But his reign of freedom doesn't last long. The Messian faith gains power, expanding the Cathedral into a new enclosed environment named Tokyo Millennium. The Gaians rise up, but their rebellion is repressed by the Messians' elite warrior class, the Temple Knights. People flock into the encapsulated city, submitting themselves to the strict hierarchy imposed by the Messian Center, where only the privileged living in the Center district are safe from demonic assaults.
A few years later, a retired arena fighter Okamoto rescues a man named Hawk, who was fighting for his life against a demon. He trains him to fight in the arena of the Valhalla district, hoping that he would win the tournament, which will grant them both citizenship in the Center district. When Hawk succeeds, he is brought before a Messian bishop, and learns the shocking truth about his own origins and the role he is supposed to play in the grand scheme of events. A new battle for a better future begins.
Shin Megami Tensei II retains all the gameplay features of the previous game. The player is able to summon demons, fuse them to create more powerful ones, make them participate in battles, talk to random enemies and receive information from them, etc. The combat is turn-based, and the player explores the complex, maze-like dungeons from a first-person perspective view. Like in the first game, the Law, Chaos, and Neutral alignments play an important role: during the course of the game, the player will have to make choices that influence the alignment of the protagonist, steering the storyline into different directions.
New features include a "magic succession" system, which allows demons to carry over their original magic spells when they are fused into new ones, a few additional spells and abilities, and the possibility to play at the casino and win unique items.Fantasy Thriller Warfare Science fiction

Gex: Enter the Gecko"Is it just me, or am I engulfed in flames?" is one of the many one-liners uttered by Gex, a wise cracking gecko who should check himself into television rehab; he's addicted to it. After saving the Television Realm from the evil Rez in his first adventure, the gecko was ready to kick back, relax, and watch a little television. Little did he know his adventure was just beginning.
One day, two secret agent goons showed up at Gex's doorstep. They inform him that Rez is back and looking for vengeance; the evil monster is planning to destroy the Television Realm once more...and possibly the world. When Gex tells them that he's retired and doesn't care, one of the goons hits the gecko on the head and takes him to a secluded place.
When Gex comes to, the mystery men plead with the gecko to take the cash and help destroy Rez for good...or at least make him disappear. With that incentive (the cash), the wise cracking lizard slips into his special agent suit and plunges headfirst into the Television Realm. Watch out, Rez -- Gex is back!Action Comedy
