Almost all of them.

But in particular the following since I don't own them already:

1. Grim Fandango
2. Sam & Max Hit The Road
3. Day of the Tentacle
4. X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter

I would like to see these LucasArts games on GOG.

1) Maniac Mansion.
2) Sam & Max Hits The Road.
3) Full Throttle.
4) Grim Fandango.
5) Curse OF Monkey Island.

And just about all other LucasArts games:)

Anyone recall Afterlife? I sort of want to try that out again.

I vote for NONE of the Star Wars games.

Several years ago, I was sitting around thinking about how much I loved Star Wars when I saw it in the theater in 1977. Then I thought about Jar Jar Binks. And then I thought about midiclorines. And I decided, at that point, that I would patronize the Star Wars Franchise no more. I won't watch the movies. I won't watch the cartoons. I won't play the games. I won't say "may the force be with you" to a friend leaving on a long road trip through the desert. I won't eat a breakfast cereal with R2-D2 on the box (although that's actually because I'm a grown-ass man who tries to eat healthier food for breakfast).

Star Wars, and the sadistic son of a bitch who destroyed all that was once good and fun about Star Wars (you know... that creepy Uncle George Lucas guy), can just get bent.

Grim Fandango is the most important one to me. I'd love the opportunity to play Sam & Max and Day of the Tentacle again too.

RatherDashing: I'd rather not have to start up Day of the Tentacle to play Maniac Mansion. When I play Maniac Mansion, I try to pretend that Day of the Tentacle never happened.

He may be lawling because you don't have to start up DOTT to play the version of MM that's included with it. It's just there in it's own folder within the DOTT folder. I think they may have changed the extension of the .exe, but all you have to do is change it back.

How has this thread gotten this far without mentioning one of the best adventure games of all time: Zakk McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders!!!

Even then, that seems a bit silly. Why should I buy a GOG release for another game, just because I can gut it for the one I actually want? With different documentation? With no extras catered to the game I'm actually buying? With different box art than the game I want on my shelf? With money going to the game I don't care for in place of the game I actually want?

I dunno, seems like the Maniac Mansion fan who doesn't care for Day of the Tentacle(I personally know two others, though they may be the only two others in the world from what I can tell) is sort of shafted in that scenario.

Unless GOG were to do it as a MM+DOTT pack?

He does seem to more then a little of a fanatic on this issue.
Allyou have to is rename the maniac OVL file in the Maniac Folder in DOTT to maniac .exe and it runs great with DOS BOX or Scummv.

Since Maniac is included with DOTT, and it is a simple matter of renaming the Maniac .ovl file in the Maniac Folder in DOTT to Maniac.exe to run it without having to play DOTT, I think that is silly. I don't see why GOG should go to any pains just to satisfy one over the top obssesed fanboy.

The Tie Fighter and X-Wing series of course, but I really want Star Wars Rebellion 2. I was very young when I played that game, I remember feeling a sense of accomplishment when I beat the last level. The the TIE Phantom exploded from a on board self destruct system. All that work for nothing. Stupidest game ending ever. But I would still love to play it again.

Yeah I agree with you enterprise. I have fond memories of the old Lucasart games.
My favourite that I would like to see is Rebel Assault. I spent hours on this game as a child and i remember it was quite a difficult game but it keep you eager to try and beat a level.
The worst level was the asteroid field and I finally after many tires flew through the last doughnut shaped asteroid the screen started to fade to red as I was about to die. Thankfully the cut screen loaded and I beat that level. Never actually got a chance to finish the game either.
