Budokai 3 is an awesomely done Dragon Ball game with excellent Battle Animations as well as the general feel of playing a game full of passion and soul. The Dragon Universe (Story Mode) is a joy to play both for unlocking new stuff, as well as just exploring the world of DBZ and finding lots of unexpected what-if scenarios on the way! Now imagine the possibilities with what fans could do, alongside increasing the difficulty, making harder and newer characters and scenarios. This is the game that desperately NEEDS a PC port! Make it come true!

Dragon ball was a part of my childhood weather thats the manga, anime , or even the Games DBZ was the pop culture of japan that spread worldwide its one of the shows that bring westrens latinos and asian together, when this game released everything about it represent DBZ in a good way that i know people who played Budikai 3 as their first entry to dragon balll then watched the show which is crazy, if this game got released on GOG it will be a legendary win for GOG like having metal gear for the longest time and ill buy it 5 times on all my accounts :)
I love this game! For everything you represent in my life and in my childhood. I would be willing to buy all the games in this franchise but looking at the votes... I believe that GOG will re-release this game in at least 10 years
Those games also need your vote!

Senran Kagura Burst
Senran Kagura BurstSengran Kagura Burst is a side-scrolling "beat-'em-up" action game for the 3DS. The player assumes control of one of five different female ninja characters. The more the game characters are damaged by enemies, the more their clothes are torn off. The information for each character's back story, major plot points, and general information on the universe of Senran Kagura is displayed in what is called the "novel", and is structured similarly to a visual novel. The novel is introduced at major plot points in the game story. The main gameplay consists of battling through the world of the story. As the game progresses, the player's character levels up and gains new moves and abilities, and in-game content such as art work, achievements, music, costumes (of which there are 180), and new characters are unlocked. The game is split into 5 chapters, with each chapter containing a number of main missions as well as optional missions. Once a story mission is complete, the mission can be played again with any of the unlocked characters. At the end of a mission the player is graded according to the player character's health, attack, and speed in completing the mission.
