Original list: March 3, 2010. Last update: 05/07/2016.
Another thread about some of these same topics.
Removed all missing OST because work is being done in another thread. Broken sound / soundtracks will still be listed here.
This list is not exhaustive (and is not meant to be) or done all by myself. Many members on this thread and other forums have contributed to it. I am not going to individually credit each contribution, but I appreciate and thank everyone's help because this is a great online community.
More than likely, I'm forgetting things (much like our GOG overlords have done from time-to-time -- xP), so I apologize for this. I will try to keep this up-to-date. New stuff has '*' next to it. Nifty, isn't it? Let's go!
Games completely removed from the catalogue (Licensing unless noted)
ArmA - Whole series gone.
Chessmaster 9000 - Some hope.
Colin McRae Rally 2005 - No hope.
Cryostasis - Some hope.
Dark Matter - The reason is ending being not acceptable by players.
Mob Rule - Bought to be remastered.
Obscure - Some hope.
Operation Flashpoint - ArmA is the replacement, but it's missing Red Hammer expansion, which apparently sucked anyways.
Republic: The Revolution - Some hope.
Re-Volt - No comment.
Second Sight - Gone.
Space Rangers 1 & 2 - DEAD.
TOCA 3 - No hope.
Wallace & Gromit - Some hope.
Missing Items (soundtracks, reference cards, manuals, etc)
Age of Wonder Series - All missing manuals.
Baldur's Gate II - OST rip slightly off.
Book of Unwritten Tales - Missing Deluxe Edition.
Crusaders of Might and Magic - Missing manual.
Deponia 2: Chaos on Deponia - Missing manual.
Gabriel Knight 1 & 3 - Missing the graphic novel here. Credit to RakeeshSorrel.
Heroes Chronicles - Missing some manuals (specifics needed).
Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games - Missing manual.
Little Big Adventure 2 - Removed poster.
Might & Magic 8 - Missing map.
MOO3 - Reference card missing.
Patrician 1 - Map and handbook.
Pinball Gold Pack - All missing manuals.
Stonekeep - Missing the scans from the hardcover novel.
Waxworks - Manual is incomplete.
Zork Anthology - Apparently, we are missing a manual and a bunch of extras. Please check this thread for more information and places to download these.
DOS Vs. Windows or Floppy Vs. CD-ROM or Version variations ("inferior" titles, licensing issues, missing information, regional differences or content to be considered "complete")
Alone in the Dark 1-3 - Missing floppy version with original sound.
Battle Chess Special Edition - Apparently, GOG does not have the rights to the cinematics for this title. :-(
Capitalism games - We have no CD audio available; anywhere. For Capitalism II, I believe that the version on Enlight's site does have the full audio track.
Carmageddon II - Official Graphics Pack: It can be easily downloaded from the net and added to the GOG version, but it's value is debatable because the GOG version is probably superior.
Castles 1 + 2 - This is the CD-ROM version with various enhancements. Unfortunately, this version is missing many plots to make the game more interesting for players.
Dark Fall: The Journal - Missing original version with different audio in some rooms.
Earthworm Jim 1 + 2 - First game is not Special Edition with extra levels.
Fallout 1 + 2 - Censored versions (no killing kids, references to drugs removed, no nudity). Fix available via patches.
King's Quest - Missing King's Quest 1 SCI version and King's Quest 4 AGI version.
M.A.X. - DOS Version.
*Megabyte Punch - Special Edition available with extra levels.
Normality - Spindown: "Normality is the original UK version with British voice actors as opposed to the re-dubbed US version."
Phantasmagoria - Windows version available with superior FMV quality.
Pinball Gold Pack - Release has various issues, and it seems largely incomplete (read multiple posts).
Raptor, Call of the Shadows - Mountain King version of the game: Changes where made by mountain king to the soundtrack, the explosions and also the slowing down of the keyboard controls.
Rayman Forever - This version of the game is missing about half of the original's sound files.
Realms of Arkania - No soundtracks or redbook audio. Apparently, old installers had it.
Riven - CD-ROM version. Superior FMV quality DVD version is available.
Rollercoaster Tycoon Deluxe - US version with different names of rides vs. original UK.
Serious Sam Gold - This version had Dark Island expansion pack.
Sim City 2000 SE - Missing Windows version and no enhanced network play and interface from the Gold Edition.
The Incredible Machine - Forum thread. Some of these issues may be licensing related or missing titles that may be sold separately, but missing audio is never any good.
Space Quest - Missing the Space Quest 1 remake SCI version.
Wing Commander 1 + 2 - DOS versions. WC1 only has speech in Super Wing Commander. Wing Commander II has the speech pack. Missing Kilrathi Saga versions.
Wing Commander Privateer - CD Version. Using a different set of voice actors, the original version with speech pack only added voices to the introduction and during combat.
Zork: Grand Inquistor and Return to Zork: Reelmagic - Missing DVD version with high quality video.
Non-working / Needs patches removed or added
Chaos Overlords - Looping sound.

Entomorph - Scrambled soundtrack.
Gangsters: Organized Crime - Problem with hoods getting stuck in jail forever. Caused by v1.4 patch.See here.
Gorky 17 - Broken graphics and videos abound, but here is a link for some fixes that seem to work for people.
Heroes of Might and Magic II - CD audio rips are bad. Must use FLAC OST and convert to OGG to fix them.
Little Big Adventure - Audio rips are bad.
Lords of Magic - Missing audio files.
Messiah - Unstable: check forum.
Raptor, Call of the Shadows - Soundtrack is encoded in garbage quality.
Seven Kingdoms 2 - Missing all the in-game music.
Tex Murphy: Overseer - and [url=http://www.gog.com/en/forum/tex_murphy_series/overseer_alcatraz_cell_block_crash]Link 2 - It seems like passing this bug is hit or miss, but for some people it's a major game breaker, which may make the game impossible to finish.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon - There is no way to install the expansion packs on the GoG version because GoG team (or UBI) pre-patched it too high.
