The story and the soundtrack of this game(series as a whole) is unforgettable. I played solo with game as it's a solo RPG. The mecha combat is very fun and some of the bosses are very tough. I have all three PS2 games and I would love to play the games on the PC

What an incredible game that managed to not only pull it's on weight, but Episode II's as well. The story is amazing, the characters are among the most fleshed out I've seen on a JRPG and they have great chemistry with one another, the soundtrack is beautiful throughout the entire trilogy and the gameplay is varied enough between ground and mech battles to keep you entertained the whole way. Why do I want the trilogy on GOG? well, the franchise has been dormant for a good 20 years and Bandai doesn't seem to have any plans to do anything with it, so I would love to legally own them on my platform of choice (PC) if I ever get the chance.

The entire Xenosaga series is gorgeous with an incredible story. I remember playing the first one with my brother, watching all the cutscenes and being astounded at what I saw. It's incredibly hard to find these games now, the whole series can be over $300 sometimes because how rare the discs were. These games need to be available in a way people can enjoy them affordably.
This made the Trilogy worthwhile. Unlike others i was let down by Xenosaga 1&2 but this game existing redeemed the trilogy for me. Its basically what i wanted from the start, unfortunately it came too late and instead of being 6 games, it got cut to 3. At least it went out on a high note.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
Silent Hill: Shattered MemoriesSilent Hill: Shattered Memories is the seventh installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a stand-alone reimagining of the original Silent Hill video game. Once again, you will cast Harry Mason searching across the haunted town for his missing daughter Cheryl. Through his exploration, Harry will come across objects and recordings that tell some of the history of Silent Hill. New to the series are a depiction of Silent Hill's demonic alter-dimension as a world of ice, and the removal of weapons from the game: when the monsters come out, Harry must literally run for his life. Between scenes, the game will cut to a psychiatrist's office, who asks personal questions about Harry and his past experiences. The game will then alter itself based on the player's responses, changing characters and lines of dialog to something intended to be more personally uncomfortable.

Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII
Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VIIDirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII is an action role-playing third-person shooter. As the first shooter game in the Final Fantasy series, the action is viewed from an over-the-shoulder perspective similar to Resident Evil 4, although players can switch to a first-person perspective if they wish. Defeating enemies yields EXP, and at the end of each stage, the player can either use that EXP to level up, increasing Vincent's stats, or convert it to Gil (the in-game currency), which can then be used to purchase items and equipment upgrades.
