there are more vietnam based games then i thought
but still not a whole lot
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Vietnam_War_video_games

i played shellshock 2 it was awfull
and not in a good way

the AI cheated there were glitches grenades were insanely overpowered
and in certain parts the enemies were never ending
i liked the uniqueness of its setting
hated the rest

Agreed. Even if it's WW2 though they could focus on the Pacific front instead of the much overdone European front.

I don't think that there's been a really good Vietnam game since Battlefield Vietnam. Definitely plenty of scope to do something amazing with that. Something inspired by Apocalypse Now could be amazing.

I wish GOG could sign up 2K Games so we could see the Bioshock series on here.

apocalypse now is a reworking of hearts of darkness though
and that got run to a modern warfare filter in spec ops the line ( which is a damn good game )

oddly enough the last ww2 era fps game i really liked was call of duty world at war and it was partially set in the pacific front

the problem is devs are running out of ideas and rehashing old stuff with a sprinkle of dub step, flashing lights and guns and wallah battlefield and cod. And from what a few devs I still talk to from my old job says the higher ups don't give a shit what the players want it's what they want, Think of apples method from what steve jobs said.

I would love some new apocalypse games like stalker which we are getting a new one from the devs who made the game woot woot! and we need some cool twisted metal style games in again and some stuff like cruising usa and such.

Why...

Just buy the new Shadow Warrior, that's a good FPS!!

problem is most gamers and certainly the casual games wont buy new and interesting
they wil only buy tried and true
usually with a big name attached to it

thats why we see yearly installments of sports games Ac and cod
or for sega sonic
and for nintendo mario and zelda

other newer titles are overlooked and most of the time they are all hype and no substance

thats just one game though
and it wont appeal to everybody

Because GoG brings in quality titles mostly... Half-joke half-truth aside, the games mentioned are "mainstream" and well known, so they can be found exclusively on trendy and abusive (concerning terms/agreements) places, like steam. They heavily DRM-ridden and their copyrights holders, probably have NO intention whatsoever, to allow them be sold as DRM-FREE products. THEIR loss, either way, because most gogers, most probably, can live without even knowing about the mere existence of one of those games in that list.

Still, if you want them, go to community and create a demand with vote petition! Good luck! I might not like those games personally, but i really hate it when people want to buy them here, and they cannot. GoG is the gamers' BEST friend and vendor. So best, actually, that it turns dedicated pirates into dedicated buyers and customers!

Yup, I was totally bummed out when EA gobbled them up and that shit started happening. I wasn't at all surprised by the change though. I still don't get why they cashed out like that. They were well known for they're quality casual game fare. I highly doubt they had financial trouble of any sort, seeing how massively successful their Bejeweled and Zuma games, and the first PvZ was.

They even brought out one of my to date favorite 'mobile' games for free: Candy Train. Loved that game. Sadly, after the takeover it wasn't long before that disappeared. Also no surprise. =/

Spec Ops was special. Which is all the more reason to want more like that, I'd say.

As for WW2 FPS that are a bit different, Enemy Front is actually quite good despite being made by the FPS factory that is, CI.

And finally we'll see the rest of the Civilization games on GOG!

Oh man, a Vietnam game done like Stalker... I want that game! Yeah, a lot of the problems that arise in game development stem from massive egos. But then some of the absolute best moments in gaming are down to the same damn thing. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

As for Twisted Metal, there's Carmageddon Reincarnation on the horizon. Not quite the same thing, but scratches much the same itch. But the original Twisted Metal, it has to be said, is my favourite PSX game. Well, it was at the time at least.

THIS ^ ^

Pretty much every triple A title developer wants their games to be pro-DRM, so it's highly unlikely that those games will end up here.

In short the devs and publishers probably have a contract with valve. So they can only be on steam. And for some reason they love DRM even though it has 0 benefits and more drawbacks (CD projekt red has proven that with the witcher 2 at least the DRM free version was pirated less times). I don't really care about having DRM or not though but I know some people have had a really bad experience with it by looking in these forums. And another reason they use steam is because they can deliver patches, updates and DLC easier than GOG (Although GOG has galaxy coming soon.)

Well clearly they have a contract with Valve othewise they could not sell anything on their service, however I doubt that they have an exclusive contract with Valve - a contract which would forbid them from selling on other platforms, not to mention that Valve themselves don't seem to like exclusive contracts too much,
