the sega master system was one of the most underrated consoles in history, but the one that more than any other was a symbol of my childhood. I still remember when we bought it with my father, who told me that for my birthday I could also have a game. I chose Kenseiden because I was struck by the illustration on the cover with the samurai going with his head bowed against a flaming skull and other demons. Sometimes I was scared of having to face the bosses of the game, and I made my father defeat them, it is one of the best memories I have of the time spent with him, even now that I am 38 years old and he is no longer with us. Please GOG team, bring back this game.

King's Field: Pilot Style
King's Field: Pilot StyleThe three King's Field PS1 games form a trilogy relating the saga of a mythical country named Verdite. King's Field 1 (released only in Japan) was the first RPG for the Playstation console and King's Field 2 (released as "King's Field" in the US and EU) was the first ever Playstation RPG in the US and Europe. King's Field: Pilot Style is a mini game whose story takes place in the period between King's Field 2 and King's Field 3. Pilot Style was given away as a promotional item at a game show in Japan and went relatively unnoticed. It only takes about an hour to complete, but it is an interesting tidbit in the King's Field world.
