Story:Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King is the eighth installment in the Dragon Quest series, developed by Level-5 and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 2 video game console. It was also later released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2015.
It is a traditional Japanese-style role-playing game with random enemy encounters, simple turn-based combat mechanics, and management of a party consisting of four characters, each belonging to a clearly defined class. Unlike its predecessors in the series and most Japanese RPGs in general, the game features a continuous world with fairly vast landscapes and integrated towns and dungeons, as opposed to world map traveling and locations represented by icons. The game features full camera rotation and optional first-person view.
Like in the previous Dragon Quest games, many objects can be interacted with; for example, barrels can be physically lifted, carried, and broken, to reveal items hidden within.Show more

Best PS2 JRPG.
Great Gameplay. Great Story. Amazing graphic style. Fun to play. Akira Toriyama characters.
Great soundtrack.
One of the best games ever made, not available to buy.
Not only one of the best RPGs of all time, Dragon Quest VIII can be considered one of the best games of all time! DQ VIII has all ingredients for an unforgetable game! The amazing story by Dragon Quest's creator Yuji Horii, the art of legendary Akira Toriyama and the epic soundtrack by the music master Koichi Sugiyama... All of this packed on an amazing adventure with delicious cel-shading graphics that lets you involved in that amazing world for incontable hours, and when you are in the last boss, the tears of joy and sadness (because you know that your are saving that world but that awesome story is coming to an end) are rolling by your face, and you know that moment will be marked in your mind and heart for the rest of your life... So, this is the reason that Dragon Quest VIII: The Sky, the Sea, the Earth and the Cursed Princess (I like the japanese subtitle more) is a must play for all publics! So i think that GoG could do a partnership with Square-Enix to bring back not only Dragon Quest VIII but all DQ games that didn't come yet! So that's it!!!

Prince of Persia 3DPrince of Persia 3D is an Action Adventure game, developed and published by Red Orb Entertainment, which was released in 1999. It is the third installment in the Prince of Persia franchise, and technically the first of many reboots the franchise has got. Even though the game follows plenty of concepts from the original duology of games, it has a completely unconnected story from them. Despite that, since the release of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time marks the second reboot and the start of the "modern era" of the franchise, this game is often considered a part of "original trilogy/classic trilogy" including the original duology.Action Stealth
