No One Lives Forever is a good one. They added a whole new chapter, exclusive to the GOTY edition.

I know this one is kind of old, but Oblivion Elder Scrolls IV.

Added.

For everyone who is just reading, this is for games that will most likely come out with a GotY edition (with DLC's and expansions along side).

That being said, I think that these two should be removed, you probably cannot even buy the regular versions anymore, and your happily forced to buy the GOTY edition.
No One Lives Forever
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

A second list for past GOTY editions worth buying over the standard edition would be nice for all of this stuff though.

Actually, NOLF GOTY is fairly rare. I would bet most fans of the game aren't aware it exists.

Not actually called "GOTY," but along similar lines, Thief: The Dark Project was re-released as Thief Gold with three new missions, and many tweaks to the old missions (some of which are greatly expanded). Thief Gold is long abandoned, and tricky to find. Thief: The Dark Project on the other hand has been re-released multiple times, including as part of "Thief Collection" boxes, and through download services. All of these re-releases were *after* Thief Gold had came out, and not one of them actually uses it.

I said fairly rare. Not extremely rare. And if you can't buy it new, it's rarer than your last post makes it sound like you were assuming. Plus, there's no guarantee that any of those used copies are of the GOTY edition. I personally bought and returned two copies of the game from Amazon marketplace that turned out to be just regular NOLF, until I found a copy on eBay that had pictures.

I'll keep both of them on the list for now, as both can still be bought at certain online and local retailers.
