Playing GTA San Andreas was pure freedom. I’d ride bikes through Grove Street, climb Mount Chiliad, and skydive over the countryside. The gang wars, jetpacks, and customizing CJ made every moment unique. Cruising to Today Was a Good Day while causing chaos? Truly iconic gaming memories!
Take care to include the missing music files and the version to NOT be the censored one! Rockstar retroactively butchered the game, affecting even the legit customers who purchased it normally, back in the day!

Rockstar doesn't give a damm about PC, never has, never will. They also don't care about game preservation, i mean, when they announced the remasters of the GTA Trilogy, they decided to delist the originals because... i don't know, maybe we are to dumb to understand the reasons, or maybe, like i said, they don't care about preserving their games and their legacy (which has always been bad on PC). So, don't get your hopes up that this and other Rockstar Games will make it to GOG, but hey, maybe i'm wrong... i hope i am.

It took me a couple of attempts to finish this game because there was so much to do. I often went to my friend’s house to play, since my PC was too slow. Once we discovered cheat codes, we couldn’t stop waging endless battles against the police. I came back a few years later to finally finish the main plot. ;)

This is my favourite GTA. It was a fun romp, reliving the badass 1980's - which IMHO was the best decade by far. And the music ... oh the music! That was really the major part - one that stuck with me the most up until this day. When I got tired of shooting (which was good fun - don't get me wrong), I would just drive around the city for hours, listening to the radio stations... Not only to the top-notch selection of music, but also to talk-shows. Those were really hilarious.

This would be the one GTA game I wanna save. I already left the franchise for many reasons. But I always deeply respected Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. I been to Florida for a few vacations since then. In my opinion this was the absolute best GTA game. Nearly every character is well written. Also given great voice actors that does their respective characters justice. The absolute best overall soundtrack in the franchise. I simply loved the entire map design as a whole. There's a lot of weapons to keep you busy rampaging for hours. I also loved you can own businesses. Some truly amazing rewards for doing the extra stuff. The campaign alone is so damn good!!! This felt like a great movie you just wanna keep watching the cut scenes. There's plenty of surprises hidden around the map. Considering this was originally planned to an expansion pack to GTA III. This turned out absolutely amazing!!! I even felt many areas it's superior to GTA III. I even felt this one has something everyone could possibly love. It's mind blowing such a game actually exists. Sure I was heavily disappointed by the newer version. Honestly a lot more people rather own the original version on GOG. Also considering GTA is among the best selling game franchises to date. Even outside of sales, this is going to sell like no tomorrow.

This was the first game I bought, I was around 10 maybe 11 (just joking I was obviously 18, totally legal xd). When I see only the cover of the game I feel that VIP PREMIUM VIBE from back then. I was having so much coolness from the game it lasted for years lol and actually I gonna download it again right now fellas at 30 :V be well.
A game I never really played but watched my cousins went through it. It was a vibe I was different from GTA San Andreas (another diamond of that era of everything on a single disc), all so colourful and neon no matter where you went. It was a fun game to watch, but I think getting a chance to play the OG version of the game would be an amazing to be able to do on my downtime.

[ENG] The fact that the creators didn't succeed in refreshing the classic GTA series is probably known to most people. The stripped down soundtrack, plastic graphics, bugs and pathetic physics mean that there is no atmosphere from the original. That is why the return of these classic products from the series is a must-have. My uncle had the original Vice City. I loved playing this game at his place, collecting M16s from one place and having a little fun on my own in this beautiful city. I am counting on refreshing these memories. I am counting on the availability of this product in the GOG store in the future, because it is worth it. [PL] O tym, że odświeżenia klasycznej serii GTA nie wyszły twórcom, to chyba wie większość osób. Okrojony sountrack, plastikowa grafika, błędy oraz żałosna fizyka powodują, że nie ma tego klimatu z oryginału. Dlatego powrót właśnie tych klasycznych produktów z serii to must-have. Vice City w oryginale posiadał mój wujek. Uwielbiałem grać u niego w tę grę, zbierać M16 z jednego miejsca i trochę poszaleć na własną rękę w tym pięknym mieście. Liczę na odświeżenie tych wspomnień. Liczę na dostępność tego produktu w przyszłości w sklepie GOG, bo warto.

After Burner Climax
After Burner ClimaxSega's airborne combat series soars back into arcades with more than 20 stages of high-flying action in After Burner Climax. Players can climb into the cockpit of an F-14 Super Tomcat, an F-15E Strike Eagle, or an F/A-19E Super Hornet and speed through the skies, dodging planes, rockets, and bullets while try to target and take down as many enemies as possible. A branching storyline and time limits force gamers into split-second decisions, but once the "Climax Gauge" is full, time slows down momentarily to let pilots unleash a screen-clearing fusillade of bullets. The game was delisted on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade in December 2014. The mobile versions followed suit, being delisted in May 2015. In April 2019, the mobile versions were relisted as free games containing ads as apart of the Sega Forever line, before being delisted once again at an unknown date.

Twisted Metal
Twisted MetalTwisted Metal consists of a series of arena-based battles against an increasing number of opponents in increasingly large arenas. These battles culminate in a face-off with the winner of the previous year's competition, Darkside, who drives a large armored car which fires multiple missiles at once. Players can choose one of 12 different vehicles with which to enter combat. Each vehicle has a distinct driver and special move. The controls consist of accelerator, brake, "tight turn" (essentially a handbrake) and turbo on the face buttons, with main weapons and machine gun selection and control on the shoulder buttons. Arenas are populated with weapon pickups to re-supply missile stocks, repair stations for repairing damage to your car, pedestrians, and course stewards armed with either machine guns or missile launchers.

Virtua Cop 2
Virtua Cop 2During the events of the first, the original Virtua Cops, Michael "Rage" Hardy and James "Smarty" Cools shut down the E.V.I.L Inc. criminal empire. Three of its leaders, King, Boss, and Kong are all in the maximum security federal pen. And the final, fourth member of the E.V.I.L Inc. gang, international terrorist Joe Fang is believed to have been killed in a helicopter crash, though his body was never found. After the downfall of E.V.I.L Inc., a comprehensive investigation of their black market and gun-running activities was launched in the Virtua City bank. Last year it looked as though the Virtua Squad had finally put an end to the E.V.I.L Syndicate’s reign of crime over Virtua City. The gangleaders were all either behind bars, in intensive care, or under 6 feet of dirt. And the Virtua City Police Special Investigations Unit got a new member in the shape of Janet Marshall, an expert in criminal psychology profiling. Then trouble started brewing in unlikely places.... The vice-president of the Virtua City Bank was killed in shady circumstances that were only officially termed "accidental". And the swollen accounts of the now-defunct E.V.I.L Syndicate, which he had been suspected of laundering, were emptied overnight. The missing funds amounted to more than the GNP of most small countries. Meanwhile, on the other side of town, alarms break the quiet and calm of the Virtua City air. A daring daylight raid on the biggest jeweler’s in the state! And at the site of the new subway construction, there’s been an unusual amount of unexplained activity involving some very suspicious-looking materiel. Looks like the E.V.I.L is reborn.
