I played this game more then a 100 times! it was one of my favorite aircraft games ever. You would think this WW2 aircraft arcade shooting and flying wouldn't be that interesting and you might be right. The game is a just a neat little thing that deserves to be brought back.

A perfectly fun blend of arcade flight with JUST a hint of sim DNA. That unique blend made it feel really good to break up an enemy formation of bombers or tangle with fighters. It was as easy to get lost in the fantasy of the fighter as it was to put on your favorite pair of jeans. Heroes of the Pacific hit a joyful mixture of styles that kept you in the action without bogging you down in too much simulation or repulsed by too much arcade. I'm normally a little more into the sim side, but this was just a perfect balance that still rings bells of joy in my memory. As I recall, after unlocking planes in missions, you'd be able to re-run early period missions with late period fighters, in a great "what if" situation... What if a Thunderbolt or Mustang had been available and airborne at Pearl Harbor? I still have the discs, but they don't help much these days... GOG would be a perfect home for preservation!

Resident Evil: Dead Aim
Resident Evil: Dead AimResident Evil: Dead Aim is a survival-horror game released exclusively for the PlayStation 2 under the Gun Survivor title, which was used for several games made for the Namco light gun controllers. The game is played in two camera angles: the player moves from a third-person perspective while walking, which changes to a first-person perspective while aiming the gun. You'll pick up several guns through the course of the game, including a magnum, a shotgun, and an assault rifle. But like in other Resident Evil games, zombies are difficult to put down permanently and ammo can be very scarce.

Shin Megami Tensei II
Shin Megami Tensei IIFifty years have passed since the hero of Shin Megami Tensei followed the neutral path, defeated the leaders of Law and Chaos, and founded a state where followers of both ideologies could live freely. But his reign of freedom doesn't last long. The Messian faith gains power, expanding the Cathedral into a new enclosed environment named Tokyo Millennium. The Gaians rise up, but their rebellion is repressed by the Messians' elite warrior class, the Temple Knights. People flock into the encapsulated city, submitting themselves to the strict hierarchy imposed by the Messian Center, where only the privileged living in the Center district are safe from demonic assaults. A few years later, a retired arena fighter Okamoto rescues a man named Hawk, who was fighting for his life against a demon. He trains him to fight in the arena of the Valhalla district, hoping that he would win the tournament, which will grant them both citizenship in the Center district. When Hawk succeeds, he is brought before a Messian bishop, and learns the shocking truth about his own origins and the role he is supposed to play in the grand scheme of events. A new battle for a better future begins. Shin Megami Tensei II retains all the gameplay features of the previous game. The player is able to summon demons, fuse them to create more powerful ones, make them participate in battles, talk to random enemies and receive information from them, etc. The combat is turn-based, and the player explores the complex, maze-like dungeons from a first-person perspective view. Like in the first game, the Law, Chaos, and Neutral alignments play an important role: during the course of the game, the player will have to make choices that influence the alignment of the protagonist, steering the storyline into different directions. New features include a "magic succession" system, which allows demons to carry over their original magic spells when they are fused into new ones, a few additional spells and abilities, and the possibility to play at the casino and win unique items.
