A very fun fighting game that has not been officially released on modern consoles or PC that would benefit the community that still enjoys playing today and introduce more players.
a very quirky, fast paced 3d fighter created in a heavily modified fighting vipers game and virtua fighter engine, that has an unique style that still to this day looks great, a little but great competitive community that still manages to show how this game can actually be mad fun, i used to play it on sonic gems collection for gamecube, and now still playing it on my xbox 360 with tons of features that included playable honey the cat for arcade mode, and playable metal sonic and eggman in versus mode my reason to wish this game being on GOG apart of the commodities of pc, is to preserve what i consider one of the must underrated sonic game ever, and one of my favourite sonic games of all time

Even if I'm not fond of the fighting genre, it was fun playing with Sonic and the other characters. Bark was my main GOAT with his reach and grabs. Wish the remastered version with Honey the Cat was available on all platforms instead of byuing a Like a Dragon spinoff just for that.

Me and my family played this game for hours in gatherings and parties, it's a really fun fighting game and the cartoonish effects made it funny and quite charming. Even today I still respect and love this game, and the soundtrack is incredible too.

Game of my childhood, I still remember when I played this in the Sonic Gem Collection and I always got stuck with Bank or Fang. I want my revenge now that I'm an adult.
Considering the game has been ported multiple times on different hardware over the years, it is unlikely they are unable to port it here. We just need a little push!

Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero
Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-ZeroMortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero is a story-driven fighting game that casts you in the shoes of Sub-Zero, and chronicles a series of events that occurred prior to Mortal Kombat 1. It is the first Mortal Kombat game to feature side-scrolling gameplay. Gameplay wise the game takes the Mortal Kombat familiar 2D fighting environment and turns it into a hybrid fighter/platformer game, where you must travel trough hazardous levels running and jumping around as well as fighting your way against both digitized and polygonal enemies. Sub-Zero's interface is the same as in every MK game, with the addition of a "use" and "turn around" buttons and additions such as an inventory, and a slight RPG twist in which you get exp. for defeating opponents, which translates into new techniques and moves to execute in the game.

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe: Kollector's Edition
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe: Kollector's EditionThe game takes place after Raiden, Earthrealm's god of thunder, and Superman, protector of Earth, repel invasions from both their worlds. An attack by both Raiden and Superman simultaneously in their separate universes causes the merging of the Mortal Kombat and DC villains, Shao Kahn and Darkseid, resulting in the creation of Dark Kahn, whose mere existence causes the two universes to begin merging; if allowed to continue, it would result in the destruction of both. Characters from both universes begin to fluctuate in power, becoming stronger or weaker. Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe was developed using Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3 and is available for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms. It is the first Mortal Kombat title developed solely for seventh generation video game consoles. Most reviewers agreed that Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe was entertaining and made good use of its DC Universe license, but the game's lack of unlockable features as opposed to past installments of Mortal Kombat and toned-down finishing moves garnered some criticism.
