Story:Tenchu Z is an action-adventure stealth video game. It is different from previous games in the series in that the player creates their own ninja characters, then builds up their skills as they play through the game rather than choosing from a small selection of pre-made characters, as they take orders from the series' previous main male character, Rikimaru.Show more

Tenchu Z, while not officially related to Sekiro, is basically a proto-spiritual-predecessor to that game, and I love it! The fact that I could create a Ninja Duo to do Mission-styled levels was amazing, and I'm still upset that it's locked to the Xbox 360 to this day! Please make this happen, GOG! You will have an instant "Shut up and take my money!" situation with me if you do!
This is the only title I've played out of the franchise so far; it holds pretty well to this day personally and I actually didn't know there were more titles until I found out about them online and I thought that was awesome, I'd be over the moon if this title and the rest of them were released on GOG because I want to give the other titles a crack for sure.

Got it on xbox 360 recently. Having played the entire Tenchu series on ps1/ps2, this title looked dreamlike. Never have I seen so many mechanics that perfectly fit the ninja fantasy. It was a pretty difficult find at the time, so I settled for other stealth titles that were equally as wonderful, like Splinter Cell & MGS. Having played it now, I can say it is hands down a gem! We should all be able to play this game for the sake of preservation and keeping the fanbase alive.

Played it recently in my xbox 360. Too bad it is not backwards compatible in later consoles. It has a multiplayer mode but I do not have friends with this game and console. The main campaign is pretty good by itself anyways.

Tony Hawk's American Wasteland
Tony Hawk's American WastelandYou are a new skater in the city of L.A.. The main drive of the game is that your hanging around with a skating group and its leader, who also happens to be a skating legend, at their skate park in Beverly Hills called Skate Ranch. Throughout the game you must help your friends by getting skate pieces for Skate Ranch. The game marks the third reinvention of the series, with Pro Skater being the first, and Underground being the second. It comes with brand new features like the ability to change your personal appearance in game, as well as the ability to get off of the skateboard and use a BMX. For the first time all of levels are strung together into one big environment, which gets rid of loading times and menu selection. Old features were also kept like Create-a-park, which dates back to the Pro Skater series. Missions are still acquired by going up to random people or friends and accepting the mission they want you to run. The game also includes a multiplayer mode and co-op for up to 2 players for added replay value.

Medieval: Total War
Medieval: Total WarExperience the middle Ages in all their blood-soaked magnificence. From the lush grasslands of Western Europe to the arid deserts of Northern Africa, from the first Crusade to the fall of Constantinople, implement diplomacy, utilize trade, espionage and assassinations, spread your religion and wage total war in order to expand your influence and secure your reign as you build a dynastic empire to stretch across four centuries. Total War is the follow on from 2000’s Shogun- Total War. As with Shogun the game is split into two sections – the turn-based campaign map wherein the player is required to make strategic decisions, recruit and move armies, besiege settlements, fight naval battles and employ agents such as emissaries, spies and assassins to aid with diplomacy, offer alliances or bribes, or execute rather more clandestine actions. Religion is important in the game and whether a faction is Muslim, Orthodox or Christian will affect allegiances and public loyalty – as a catholic nation the player must carry out the wishes of the Papal States, embarking on a holy war if need be or else run the risk of excommunication. If public order and loyalty should fall too low in a particular region a rebellion or a civil war may occur – in these situations the player may decide to side with the rebels or the current rulers to quell the rebellion or overthrow a tyrannous regime-
