Why Dead Rising 1 Should Be on GOG
The original Dead Rising (2006) is a true cult classic—a bold, chaotic, and innovative zombie survival game that laid the foundation for a beloved series. Set in the iconic Willamette Parkview Mall, players step into the shoes of photojournalist Frank West as he battles through thousands of zombies using anything and everything as a weapon. Its real-time progression, sandbox structure, and dark humor made it stand out in a sea of survival horror titles.
Despite its impact and legacy, Dead Rising 1 remains unavailable on GOG.com, a platform that champions DRM-free access, retro gaming preservation, and modern compatibility. Bringing Dead Rising to GOG would finally make this masterpiece accessible to fans old and new—without reliance on third-party launchers or outdated DRM.
A GOG release should also ensure proper controller support, updated resolution options, and smoother performance on modern PCs. Many fans have nostalgic memories of surviving the 72-hour outbreak—and many more have yet to experience it. GOG is the perfect home to give Dead Rising a second life.
It’s time to let Frank West’s story be told again—this time with freedom and flexibility. Let’s bring Dead Rising to GOG, where classics come back to life.

Conker's Bad Fur DayHumorous action-platformer that does away with the tedious item collection found in most games in the genre. Instead, BFD employs a combination of standard jump, run and explore mechanics and context-sensitive gags and actions. For instance, in the beginning of the game, by pressing the B button on the first pad he encounters, Conker drinks some Alka-Seltzer to wipe out his hangover, at which point players can proceed forward. Later on these pads are used to activate a slingshot and throwing knives; to turn Conker into an anvil and drop downward; to shoot automatic, double-handed guns; to activate a The Matrix-inspired slow-motion effect and flip through the air shooting enemies; and much, much more.Action Fantasy Comedy
