This may be the only way for many people to play the Digimon TCG as it was never released outside of the west. Even in the west the the Digimon TCG had problems. People thought Digimon was a Pokémon clone when in fact it came from an unrelated handheld game. Under-informed stores decided not to carry the "knockoff"! The cards were hard to find and players were harder to find. This allows you to have both digitally.

This is my hidden gem from the PS1. I finished it a few times and it's awesome. I loved even the final boss that damm cheater and came up with 2 ways to legitimately beat him. That's so damm freaking awesome to remember. I want so bad for mods or even maybe a second game from this one. I really hope it continues on and on.

A colourful cardgame RPG that offers customisable partner cards to make each playthrough feel like your own. It initially seems quite simple but offers plenty of room for two people on a couch to build and strategise together, giving it as much replay value as you have friends, and the meta twist at the end (which I won't spoil) recontextualises all of it into one of my favourite Digimon stories of all time!

For me the best Digimon game that exist. This is a game that I can begin again countless times and it wont feel horrible at all. It has a long campaing, real endgame content and you can create your own deck.
This was one of those games that actually taught me how to play the digimon playing card game legitimately. Do you want to find anyone playing with digimon cards outside of the game? Good luck with that with everyone thinking it was just a Pokemon rip off and seemed to have killed the chance to ever get the physical cards in my area. Although I can not buy of the cards online with a lick of a button, getting this on GoG would help me catch up on the good ol days of learning from a simple PS1 game that has all the necessary card needed from a bye gone era. Maybe it will even convince Bandai to invest in making a newer version of the game, be it set up more as live service game similar to MTG and Yugioh in the online space.
A lot of really great strategy here not quite replicated with all the card games today, and the only was to play Digimon TCG in this form legitimately. I would love a way to play Digimon TCG that's clearly legal!
Those games also need your vote!

Brave Fencer Musashi
Brave Fencer Musashi150 years ago, the legendary warrior known as the Brave Fencer Musashi saved the kingdom of Allucaneet from the evil Wizard of Darkness. Now, his spirit is reincarnated in a young, rather short-tempered boy. Fillet, the princess of Allucaneet, summons the reluctant hero to the palace and gives him the powerful sword Fusion, which he needs to defeat the evil Thirstquencher Empire. It soon turns out that the Empire is after another legendary sword, Lumina, so Musashi's first task is to get it before the bad guys do!.. Brave Fencer Musashi is an action game with strong RPG elements. Controlling Musashi, the player explores the pre-rendered backgrounds from third person view (similarly to Final Fantasy VII), visiting towns, talking to NPCs, etc. There is a day/night cycle in the game, which is manifested in the schedules of NPCs and/or monsters, as well as Musashi's fatigue level, which increases if he doesn't sleep enough. Musashi uses the two swords, Fusion and Lumina, to fight his enemies. The two swords have different properties: while Fusion behaves more or less like a traditional melee weapon, Lumina needs to be imbued with various elemental items in order to unleash powerful attacks.

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.

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.
