The greatest Tekken ever, imo. Unavailable on the Playstation store for some reason, despite being a Playstation 1 exclusive. I loved this game back when it was released in the 90's and would love to see it on GOG, as well as Tekken 1 and 2.
Things I love about the game are;
unlockable volley ball game, unlockable joke characters like Gon that can fart attack, the music and ending cinematics for each character
This game is one of the most important games of the late 1990s, spurring on a continued prosperity and unprecedented advancement in the 3D Fighting Game genre that we can still feel to this day. As of 2025, it is the 5th best selling game on the entire PlayStation 1 console, beating out similarly revolutionary titles such as Metal Gear Solid, Tomb Raider, Crash Bandicoot and Resident Evil 2, and almost any gamer or game developer around at the time will be able to fondly recount its long-lasting effect on them almost 3 decades after its initial release.
Despite this though, Tekken 3 remains legally unavailable on modern consoles and PC, with its latest release being as part of the now outdated PlayStation Classic in 2018, a system that lacks any kind of online support whatsoever. This is especially troublesome for Tekken 3, as it being a Fighting Game means that multiplayer is one of its main draws, and the complete inability to access this game's main driving force without either a person to physically be next to you in a time where the world is becoming increasingly online focused, or the use of dubious unofficial emulation condemned by a large portion of the Japanese game development space is concerning for the future of this period-defining game.
A re-release of this game spearheaded by GOG, preferably with the addition of at least competent rollback netcode for smooth online play, would allow Tekken 3 to live on forever on our modern hardware instead of being relegated to an over 30 year old console that, although is in great abundance right now, is gradually becoming more and more inaccessible by the day.
This is a game that truly deserves to be brought back to modern audience. This was my first Tekken game I played back in the early 2000's. There is no better Tekken games like Tekken 3. The characters, the story and the music are all great.
The fighting game to end all fighting games and also the debut of Jin Kazama. The last King of the Iron Fist Tournament entry on the PS1 but the one closest to my heart.
Still my favourite 3D fighting game by some margin, everything that came after didn't have the same balance or 'feel', and modern fighting games are generally too convoluted in control/move set[s] and frankly feature way too many characters I don't vibe with.
Tekken 3 on the other hand is nigh perfection, all the characters moves feel RIGHT, the hits feel significant and FAIR, and the satisfaction when you finally time a move 'just so' is hard to match.
And while I can emulate it well enough, what I really want is 100% official support on modern PC's with full and proper control support for a six button pad (and yes, that means combination buttons on the shoulders :P) without any annoying fiddling.
And ideally access to both the Arcade original and PS1 versions, an anthology of Tekken 3, if you will! (and the option to release all of the characters in arcade mode if preferable)
Like Rave Racer, if you make this available it GON' be an instant by from me! (and yes I hate myself for that pun too...)

Dark EarthDark Earth is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game for the PC.
Dark Earth takes place several centuries in the future, when a meteor collision with Earth tossed up great clouds of dust that blocked out the sun. Earth's remaining survivors began to seek refuge beneath small openings in the clouds, the few places light could be found. Those that remained in the 'dark earth' were hunted by strange creatures, infected with the darkness.
To shelter themselves from the dangerous 'dark earth', the people began to form cities beneath the light called 'Stallites'. At the time of the game, most of the citizens of the stallite have forgotten their history and now worship the light as a god. The stalites are run by 'Sun Priests', who maintain order and prevent the creatures of darkness from harming the city. The game follows the story of Arkhan, a "guardian of fire", protector of the stallite 'Sparta' and the Sun Priests.
After an attack on the sun priests, Arkhan has a poison thrown into his face that begins to infect him with the dark sickness. He begins to mutate into a creature of the dark and has to find a cure before his transformation is complete. Along the way, he is treated as an enemy by most of his former friends while he struggles to uncover the conspiracy behind the attack.Action Fantasy Historical Science fiction

True Crime: Streets of LATrue Crime: Streets of LA is a free-roaming driving and action game similar in concept to Grand Theft Auto III. The game's structure is mission-based; most of the missions are dictated by the story and initiate following a cutscene that advances it. Failing a mission still allows the player to continue playing through the chapter and undertake subsequent missions; in some cases this will lead to branching paths and optional missions. However, in order to complete the whole chapter the player must eventually succeed in all the main missions.Open world Action Science fiction Stealth Sandbox
