Resident Evil 5 is hands down a must for GOG. It's widely known as one of the greatest co-op games ever made. The game is so packed with content you'll be playing this for years to come. Sometimes GOG gets the most complete version deals. Which is very possible to do with Resident Evil 5. A very replayable Resident Evil game that stands the test of time. You get a few decent modes as well. Plenty of unlockables you can use in game points to get. A few outfits you can wear in the campaign. There's some rather sick tricks you could do as well. Including the famous gold egg trick to quickly max out money. Not only that, the difficulty levels for the most part is well balanced. Resident Evil 5 is among the most fun RE games you can play. I really felt this game would sell incredibly well on GOG. Especially during sales, also with people wanting a remake of this game. Thus further helps to hype the classic version up even more.
I've probably beaten this game over 10 times all of the way through, unlocking everything. It's always fun and always addicting. The co-op experience is where it really shines though, providing hours of pure fun, laughs and intense moments shared with a friend.
Being able to beat the game over and over again was something I could not get enough of when I played RE5 on the Xbone 360. Being able to play this game with a friend is also very good. Even though that I maaaaay~~~ have ruined the experienced for me and my friend by simply purchasing the weapons for a mission that didn't need it. At least... that Is what I think happened? I know I had fun by myself and I think my friend didn't care much about breaking the game's pacing when we simply started from the beginning. I would appreciate this game to come out on GoG. A good ol time by yourself with with friends that I'd happily play at least a half a dozen times like what it first came out on consoles.
I know this game is disliked by a lot of die hard RE fans and I can understand why... But to be honest I always have a great time playing it with a friend. It's non-stop action with epic boss fights and this is a really fun playthrough if you got someone to play it with. It deserves to be in the GOG conservation program.
RE 5 got me into the RE series since 2009 on PS3. I own multiple copies of RE 5 from all platforms on both digital and physical. PS3, PS4 Switch and Xbox. Plus Steam of course it's digital. But, That's how much I love RE 5 so if it comes to GOG anytime soon. I'm getting it again haha

Fatal Frame
Fatal FrameFatal Frame is the first game of the Fatal Frame series, introducing the franchise's unique premise of fighting ghosts with a special camera. Fatal Frame was the first to introduce the innovative use of an old-style camera as the primary weapon. In addition to navigating the main characters around the mansion grounds, players are able to enter Viewfinder Mode, where the camera is raised and the view changes to that of the camera's frame. In viewfinder mode the player is able to snap photographs of ghosts, both violent and benign, which is the main method of progressing through the game. Items are also available, some being consumable and most being key items needed to unlock doors, complete tasks or solve puzzles. Puzzles are encountered frequently in the game, some being based on the same concept but becoming progressively more difficult. The varying difficulty settings of the game (Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, or Fatal (Xbox only)) determine the amount of consumable items scattered throughout the mansion and how formidable the enemies are. The main horror aspect of the game is, undoubtedly, the ghosts. The mechanics programmed for the ghosts allow them to float ethereally through the air, walls and floors, and even teleport, allowing them many ways to attack the player. The ghosts' appearances are usually inspired by their deaths or by Japanese stigmas of horror, which, some argue, are particularily chilling. The game, depending on which console it is played on, offers two endings. Upon completion of the game, a ranking is given based on total time taken, points accumulated and other categories. The player is also given rewards and unlockables, such as alternate costumes and camera functions, depending on what difficulty was beaten, how much of the Ghost List was completed and other criteria. Beating the game also unlocks Battle Mode, where the player is faced with fighting specific ghosts, and is rewarded with points towards purchasing unlockables. An option is also given where the game can be replayed with all equipment, upgrades and unlockables carried over.
