RayCrisis: Series Termination is the final entry in Taito's acclaimed trilogy of shooters, and it bombards your CRT with an abundance of fourth-generation optical stimulation: multilevel scrolling, transparency and lighting effects, and enough polygons to overload your cerebral cortex.

Prepare your senses, reinforce your nerves, and limber your trigger finger - the final assault has begun!Show more

The PC port is a great version to play with. Though Windows 9x version is a beta port from PS1 version, it actually surpasses from the original PS1 version. The graphics got improved a little bit but the loading times(which were way too long in PS1 version)got shortened from original PS1 version thanks to HDD installation system. Taking a good comparison from original arcade version, only single play system is critical cons in this version. But you can select the stage freely(and you can select same stages for 3 times!) from the first time and you can choose the hidden high level spaceship;WR-03! and if you managed to reach the true ending wth all 3 ships, the two R-GRAY ships from previous series awaits you as cameo. and they are little bit hard to maneuvering but they are really powerful and attractive! The difficulty of game became easy to access so that everyone would enjoy well. The encroachment system got improved as well; while under 25% could reach the true ending in arcade version, now you can access the true ending even until 99% in this version! You can enjoy the special mode which were never existed in original arcade and the gameplay is very special and unique from arcade mode! Anyway many retro & SHMUPs gamers usually prefer the previous 2 series of RAY series,(but it is obvious that RayForce/Layer Section and RayStorm/Layer Section 2 are the one of the greatest masterpiece in SHMUPs.) I think RayCrisis: Series Termination is also a great masterpiece in SHMUPs too! so please GOG!!!

DOOM
DOOMA sci-fi FPS in which a space mercenary searches for his lost friend from the box art. Things aren't looking too good. You'll never navigate off the planet on your own. Plus, all the heavy weapons have been taken by the assault team leaving you with only a pistol. If you only could get your hands around a plasma rifle or even a shotgun you could take a few down on your way out. Whatever killed your buddies deserves a couple of pellets in the forehead. Securing your helmet, you exit the landing pod. Hopefully you can find more substantial firepower somewhere within the station. As you walk through the main entrance of the base, you hear animal-like growls echoing through the distant corridors. They know you're here. There's no turning back now.

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is the sequel to Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and a prequel to the original Metal Gear. The game has a complex story with long cut-scene sequences, but there are fewer and they are shorter compared to earlier Metal Gear Solid titles. Most of the gameplay mechanics introduced in Ground Zeroes are carried over: it is still an action game and stealth oriented but replaces the linear corridor design from most earlier titles with large open world environments that offer the player unrestricted freedom for the approach. The world has now a real-time day and night cycle and various weather effects that influence enemy behaviour, visibility and sound. Sabotaging or destroying certain structures can also influence other parts of the map.
