Age of Empires. I cant really remember if my first Real-Time-Strategie Game AoE was or Civilaziaton or Caesar. But what ever it was now i've played AoE alot in my early Years and i've loved it. The different Cultures, their Background Stories and Informations, that Game was or is an 10/10 for me forever. Just pity it was that i've never had the Expension "Rise of Rome" for my Main Game. But still im loving it and yes i already got it somewhere else but as i've said in now a few other Comments in here to other Dreamgames i like to have on GOG, im since awhile now an huge GOG Fanboy and i want all my Games on one Plattform even if it means i gotta have to buy a few Games a second Time but GOG is my Plattform to be on. POINT! So and the Reason why i've write an Comment on the Definitive Edition and not on the Original Version is because in the DE-Version i got better Graphics and Ultra-Wide Support. The only Things what i dislike on the DE-Edition is, they've changed the Intro, the Main Menue, the Music and some Overlays especially in the Menue Sections. But still i would prefer today the DE-Version more as the Original even if i had voted for both Versions here on the Dreamlist. So hopefully Microsoft will get reasonable some Day and offer their Games here on GOG too. I would highly appreciate it.
Those games also need your vote!

Alone in the Dark Anthology
Alone in the Dark AnthologyOpis A suspicious suicide. A chilling curse. A malevolent power. Finally, a wicked dark secret. This is Derceto, a legendary Louisiana mansion where, against your better judgment, you're drawn into a world of shadows to explore the darker side of Jeremy Hartwood's imagination. Despite a paralyzing sense of personal danger, your quest for truth drives you to investigate the old house. But, you didn't know that, by entering Derceto, you'll be plunged into the daily nightmare that was Jeremy Hartwood's life. You weren't prepared for the torturous howls that resound from deep within its halls. You didn’t foresee the shadowy corridors that seemingly have no end. You couldn't anticipate the brooding, gloom-filled rooms, the pervasive weight of dread, the heavy sense of evil that gills the atmosphere and the very house itself. Had you known, you might have refused this task. But alas, you accepted, and now you must make your way through this spine-tingling adventure alone... and in the dark. The grand-daddy of survival horror genre A memorable soundtrack, excellent voice acting, and a thrilling story will keep you hooked for hours Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's universe, where ancient evils of unimaginary power play with human lives Includes Jack in the Dark bonus adventure
