I always played this game with my cousin. We used to play custom maps for hours on end when we were younger. I have only fond memories of this game and that's without having played the campaign once - that's why I'd love to have it on GoG; to relive those memories and to finally play the campaign.

Ah, all those custom maps and nights while blasting emo songs. The OG DotA before it got Gigabytes of graphics. Still want to play this on a handheld pc one day. With the technology we have today and GoG, one can wish for that day to happen. Plus, it's easier to get this here.
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne isn't just a DLC — it’s a masterclass in how to expand upon a beloved game without compromising its core. Released in 2003, this expansion to Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos elevated everything: story, gameplay mechanics, multiplayer depth, and modding tools. It took an already legendary RTS and pushed it into the stratosphere. The campaign alone is worth the price of admission. It continues the dark, emotional tale of Arthas and his descent into becoming the Lich King — one of the most iconic villain arcs in gaming history. But beyond the narrative, The Frozen Throne introduced new units, heroes, and gameplay strategies for each faction, enriching the meta and making competitive matches even more dynamic and intense. It also played a crucial role in shaping modern gaming. Thanks to the robust World Editor, The Frozen Throne gave rise to custom maps like Defense of the Ancients (DotA) — the mod that launched the MOBA genre. Without this expansion, there might never have been League of Legends or Dota 2. Releasing this expansion on GOG would preserve a pivotal part of PC gaming history in a DRM-free, accessible format. With proper support for modern systems and the original art and gameplay intact — not the altered Reforged version — GOG could give both old-school fans and new players the definitive way to experience one of the greatest DLCs ever made.

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.
