This one takes place in the same setting as SMT IV. I admit, the handling of story and the characters isn't on the same level as the previous game. Having said that, Apocalypse improves upon many of the gameplay mechanics, such as skill affinities with the demon whisper and the ability to select your active partner depending on what type of assistance you require. If Shin Megami Tensei IV is preserved, so should this.
Perhaps the most divisive Megami Tensei game (this side of Giten, anyway), but definitely worthy of consideration, alongside its predecessor. Not sure exactly how to describe this one: a side story? A "what if?" alternative take on the original? A story of succession, where the characters of 4 pass the baton over to the party in this one, just to watch them sprint laps? I loved it either way, and would be overjoyed to see this little slice of 3DS gaming preserved on GOG
I never played this myself but I remember seeing ads and coverage of it. The premise of someone being resurected by a god in exchange for service has always stuck with me. I would love to play it and a GOG release would be nice compared to hunting down a 3DS copy.

Parasite Eve II
Parasite Eve IIParasite Eve II is an action role-playing survival horror video game released exclusively for the PlayStation. The game was developed by Square and published in Japan in 1999 and in both North America and, unlike the previous game, in PAL regions in 2000. It is the sequel to Parasite Eve and the second game in the series of the same name. Parasite Eve II is set several years after the events in the original game. The protagonist from the first game, Aya Brea, also features in this game as the playable character. She becomes involved with another outbreak of Mitochondrial creatures. Gameplay diverges from the previous game: battles take place in real time and the area of action is less restrictive. The approach is more typical of traditional survival horror games, although some role-playing elements are retained.
