Emudude: Betrayal in Antara (sequel to Betrayal at Krondor and Return to Krondor)
BiA is already on GOG, included in the Betrayal at Krondor pack (although apparently it's got some serious bugs the GOG staff is currently checking out).

And yeah, I'd like to see Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Not exactly a classic RPG but definitely one I'd be interested in trying.

Many have been mentioned already, but I would add Bloodwych and Dragon Wars.
Might be too old, though :(

Actually there are many games that still could be added.

The Ultima series. Terra Nova - Strike Force Centauri. Comanche. Armored Fist. All LucasArts adventures. Some non-LucasArts adventures (like Inherit The Earth and Shannara).

And that is not even the tip of the iceberg, because to have that we would have to add Diablo, Warcraft 1 and 2, Cultures 1 and 2, The Settlers 1 to 4, the Fugger series, Hanse - The Expedition, The Great Art Race, Project: Nomad (space sim from 1994, not to be confused with Project: Nomads from like 1999) and many more.


EDIT: Sorry, misread title!

Classic RPG, not a classic RPG, not a classic RPG, not a classic RPG. None of them is a classic RPG. None of those are classic RPGs (like that one that isn't a classic RPG and that other one that isn't a classic RPG).

One classic RPG, two not classic RPGs, two more not classic RPGs, four more not classic RPGs, a series of not classic RPGs, not a classic RPG, not a classic RPG, not a classic RPG that is not to be confused with another game that is not a classic RPG and many more which might include some classic RPGs.

OOPS! I read "games" instead "RPGs". Sorry!

Then Ultima, Wizardry, Bard's Tale, and most console games that probably will be unable to be added. :-)

And of course the RPG-adventure hybrid series Quest for Glory.

Yeah Dark Messiah of Might & Magic is good.

Would there be any way to port Zelda to pc? I've always heard it's a great series but I never had consoles myself.

Nintendo would never agree to that.

Besides, it's not an RPG.

I've been eye'ing DM of M&M on steam for its ubisoft sale at 33% off, however I will wait until Friday to see if the whole M&M series gets 50% off. I own all of them but DM. Somewhat of a M&M freak here. Not crazy about ubisoft but they are passable with potential. Not too crazy about where HoMM 6 is headed but I will give them the benifit of the doubt.

I haven't played the M&M games (yet) but am a huge fan of Heroes. However fyi Dark Messiah isn't much of a M&M game. There isn't much resemblance to Heroes and I heard the same about the M&M series. It's good FP action though. You can kick orcs off cliffs, backstab, swing on ropes, and kill an undead dragon with a spell that turns your finger into a flamethrower. Highly recommended and I hope GOG makes it available.

FWIW the game is six years old and it has no expansions or sequels to make things complicated for GOG.

Thanks, that's what I heard. Wish it were more, intrigued by the gameplay, but in the end I gotta catch 'em all.

Heroes of Might and Magic is based on Might and Magic, not the other way around. The Might and Magic universe is massive and often takes place on different worlds, though some of the story ties in,

Should add a few of the classic Castlevania. Maybe a Legend of Zelda or two. :P I'd love to see Crystalis for the NES on here. That was a great game
Posted May 25, 2011
Doubt Nintendo would approve of that.
Posted May 25, 2011
Crystalis isn't trademarked by Nintendo. nor is Castlevania.,
