I play the PSx version of the first two Harry Potter games every year. It's my own little tradition. Harry Potter is half my childhood. I learned to read with the books and these games were some of my first gaming experiences ever. For YEARS I wanted to try out the PC version, but sadly you can't find them anywhere.. I would LOVE to get all the PC Harry Potter games on GOG and play them! I really hope they'll make it to the platform.
If this does happen, please also make the PAL version available, with the correct title of "Philosopher's Stone", as it would be such a shame to only preserve the American version.

What is to say about this gem that hasn't been said already. Experiencing the world of magic and fantasy with such freedom and epic quests that this game had to offer, once again, is one of the best experiences i ever had. Such a good times trying to beat this game, playing Quidditch and learning the spells by following the path with your mouse and running from the troll. And collecting those flavour beens was a delight. You just had to be there, what a time to be alive...

The PS1 version by Argonaut is fine (both versions share music, design, and actors), but I want to emphasize that these screenshots are from the PC version by KnowWonder, which is my favorite game of all time. That's the one I would strongly prefer to see added on GOG!

These games deserve to be made available again on legacy alone. Tons of spells that the franchise to this day uses were invented for them. There general gameplay focus set the bar for an entire line of games and still influences modern releases. And the PS1 version was one of that consoled vest selling titles overall. They all clearly suffered from rushed development but they are still decent enough games with a long legacy and tons of people that fell in love with at least one of there versions that they should't just be left to rot. And don't even get me started on the legendary sound track which easily rivals John Willams score for the movies.

What can be said that has not already been said, the children of the 90s who grew up with this saga we were very lucky because we grew up with it ... the idea that in the game you could walk the corridors of Hogwarts was already crazy, something simply magical (never better said) hopefully we can recover it and have it forever would be something very nice, if possible also the PAL version that came dubbed and everything.

I remember playing this game as a little kid with my sister and being utterly terrified of the little goblin/ troll things! And being super scared during a segment where you have to sneak around Filch wearing your invisibility cloak. Getting to replay this game would be awesome!

One of the first games I've ever finished. I wasn't allow to play much, but HP was okay for my parents, so I saved money to get this game and totally loved it. I remember being very afraid of the sneaky level with Filch in the library, but in my second playthrough these level became my favorites. Would also love a remake of this game so much, but still got a physical copy of it.

Used to play this a ton, would love for it to see some love from the GOG team! I don't want to have to keep emulating it in order to get it to work, and I know GOG will do a good job, so vote!
Those games also need your vote!

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Final Fantasy III
Final Fantasy IIIFinal Fantasy III is the third FF game for the Famicom. The turn-based battle engine has been improved: if the enemy is defeated, the next character will automatically switch to another enemy, and not hit the air, like in the previous two games. The game itself is, like the previous games, a top-down RPG where your characters travel in the overworld, sometimes entering cities and dungeons to buy equipment, rest and fight random encounters and bosses with turn-based combat. Final Fantasy III also introduces various series staples, such as the Job system and the Moogle species.
