Leroux: Off the top of my head, these are some games that to my knowledge support local co-op:

- Guacamelee
- PID
- Rayman Origins
- Trine Enchanted Edition
- Trine 2

I suspect (but don't know) that these might as well:

- Adventures of Shuggy
- Crawl (upcoming since forever)
- Fractured Soul
- Hammerwatch
- Octodad
- Pixeljunk Shooter
- Spelunky

I agree that it would be useful if GOG made a distinction between local co-op and 'more than one PC required' co-op (not sure what would be the exact term).

Supposedly, Age of Wonders 3 and Ground Control II also have a local co-op mode, though I have no idea how it works.

Riotact: I think it stems from consoles, where you would be able to sit on a couch and play co-op on the large/r TV screen as opposed to a PC monitor.
