GOG games are the full games incl. music, videos, cutscenes, etc. Only the audiotracks on the CD's of some older games are obviously not included.

Many games have extra content as a bonus, for example soundtracks, manuals, avatars, artwork and more.

The best part is you can play really old games on new systems.

Some DOS games (probably where they weren't able to remove the copy protection?) actually come with the full ISO that is then mounted in DOSBox. Maybe this extends to some of the games with Redbook audio?

If you want to make sure before purchasing it's best to just ask in the respective game forum if someone who already has it can verify. Or someone will most likely have asked already.
