Personally I'm a bigger fan of Frank's version. I will say this still among the best Dead Rising games. In many aspects greatly improves over the original Dead Rising. The map is still among my favorites in the series. Combo weapons really brought new life to the concept. I know that concept originally introduced in Dead Rising 2: Case Zero. Although this was the Dead Rising game to made it famous. Easily one of the finest campaigns in the franchise. There's even more depth to the game play than the original. Sure you have to find or buy Zombrex. Then quickly go give shots to your daughter to save her life. There's a couple endings to keep things interesting. It's also a great one to start the franchise with.
Why Dead Rising 2 Should Be on GOG (With Easy Controller Support)
Dead Rising 2 is a zombie-slaying classic that combines chaotic action, offbeat humor, and creative weapon crafting into one unforgettable experience. Set in the over-the-top world of Fortune City, it offers players the freedom to mow down hordes of zombies using anything from chainsaws to traffic cones—often in hilariously absurd combinations.
However, despite its cult following and multiple re-releases, Dead Rising 2 still isn’t available on GOG.com, where classic and beloved titles find new life in DRM-free form. Bringing it to GOG would be a big win for fans who prefer offline access, ownership without restrictions, and a smoother experience on modern PCs.
Even more important: the GOG version should include full, easy-to-use controller support right out of the box. Many current PC versions of the game require awkward workarounds to make controllers work properly, especially with modern gamepads like the Xbox Series or DualSense.
Dead Rising 2 belongs on GOG—fully optimized, fully supported, and fully zombie-filled. Let players relive the madness of Fortune City the way it was meant to be played: their way, with the controller in hand, and no DRM in sight.

Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!Discworld II: Mortality Bytes! is the second point-and-click adventure game based on Terry Pratchett's series of fantasy novels set on the mythical Discworld. The game was developed and produced in 1996 by Perfect Entertainment for the PC, and ported in 1997 for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. It was published by Psygnosis for the PC and PlayStation, and by Sega for the Saturn (only in Europe).
In Discworld II the player controls Rincewind the "wizzard" (voiced by Eric Idle, as in the previous game) who has been burdened with the task of coercing Death out of his impromptu retirement and back into his regular duties. The plot borrows from a number of Discworld books, most notably Reaper Man, Moving Pictures and Lords and Ladies.
It all begins in a quiet Ankh-Morpork street, where Rincewind and The Librarian inexplicably fail to die from a nearby cart-bomb explosion. The odd event is not shared by them alone however: occurrences of the newly dead re-awakening and disturbing the populace are being reported all over the city, prompting the Archchancellor of Unseen University to halt his usual activities of feasting and merrymaking, and to take charge of the situation. Much to Rincewind's despair, the entirety of this process involves appointing him to the task of finding Death and convincing him to resume his work.Fantasy Comedy
