Plenty of gaymes with licensed content have been withdrawn from sale. People just don't generally notice or care because they're not usually digital-only, so you can just buy a boxed copy.

I remember buying the Deadpool gayme for more than it was worth from a key seller after they took it off Steam. Then they relicensed it and brought it back a couple of years later when the movie came out.

It happens all the fucking time, Sega Rally Revo and Outrun 2006 got taken off Steam, same with most of Codemasters' back catalogue of racing games, I think Daytona USA is also gone. Some GTA games on Steam have had songs removed due to expiring licenses, same with Crazy Taxi. Castle of Illusion remake got taken down everywhere recently, the Deadpool game got taken down for some time while the publisher renegotiated the rights to it

The first few hours are pretty unique and for 3 bucks its definitely worth it. once you get past those first 3 hours you find out they played all their cards and will recycle everything for the next 9 hours

American nightmare is just more of the same.

>>376832796
even on steam?

>>376831950
I know the mickey mouse castle of illusion remake was taken off for whatever reason.

>>376833145
I really liked it. The writing is a homage to Stephen King and they really nail the style, the combat is simple but satisfying, the atmosphere is well done and it has some really memorable moments. The biggest drawback is that there's very little enemy variety so combat gets old before the game is over. Still very much worth playing for me but I love tense atmospheric games and grew up reading a bunch of Stephen King so there's that.

American Nightmare is a sort of groundhog day scenario, so it's a few small levels that they make you replay over and over. It's obvious padding and even with that it isn't too long, but they add new enemy types, new weapons and an arcade mode like Mercenaries in RE, so if you liked the base game you'll most likely enjoy it too.

I'd buy the collection, it's not very expensive either way.

Your being an idiot. Take 5 seconds and actually look at the reason why it is being taken down.

I still have an unredeemed key on my humble bundle account from a weekly sale from years ago. Can I still redeem and download it after it goes down?

>>376834075

American Nightmare's arcade mode is pretty good. The story mode is tolerable if you don't take it seriously.

Is American Nightmare also being removed? I don't remember any licensed music in it, except for that one awful song.

Is this ghost/jumpscare type of game?

>>376835692

Almost certainly. It doesn't seem as if they're removing their game from users' libraries. (Putting the game on sale for two days only to remove it from the libraries of the users who just paid for it would lead to lawsuits.)

If you got it from Humble Bundle, you should have a DRM-free copy in your Humble account, and you should download that if possible, but you should also redeem that Steam key NOW just for the convenience of having a Steam copy.

>>376836186

Go fuck yourself. If they cared enough about the game to hire shills, they'd renew they license. They're letting the game die with one last 90% sale because most of the people who would ever buy the game already own it.

IIRC Prey and Fable 3 ran out of CD keys. With Fable 3 in particular they had it on sale and they somehow managed to sell more copies than there were CD keys.

That shitty Spark Unlimited FPS? That's still there, or it came back if it was ever delisted.

Have you ever played Luigi's Mansion?
its like that but except with guns instead of a vacuum cleaner. Also the enemies are more like zombies than anything else.

>>376836192
If a game has been removed from Steam, it has to be made available to download for those who have previously purchased it.

When the licensing ran out on all the old Activision Marvel games, for example, people went on a downloading spree, before finding out theywere always available.

>>376836436

There are very few "jump scares", if any. It's really NOT a scary game. The enemies are only slightly scary until you get good at killing them.

It's fun though.

You shouldn't give up on it for that reason.

>>376836487
>I will never play the Halo theme MJOLNIR mix on guitar hero 3 ever again

feels bad man

this happened to a pile of games I helped make for iOS that licensed a book series

the license expired, we removed them from the store, and we can't update them. unless you have it installed on an old ios device running at most ios6, theyre gone forever.

For anyone buying this btw, some of the collectables are only available on the hardest setting (which you need to beat the game to unlock iirc). Since that's bullshit, go look for the workaround to make them all appear on normal.

>>376835692

Redeem it now, just in case. Why not?

If you do redeem it, you definitely won't lose it afterwards, unless Steam goes full retard and tries to get sued.

This is why piracy is good, dispute

QGDLP-I7MXJ-TCZ4K

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the game should be easily pirate-able after they remove it from stores, because Humble Bundle released a DRM-free version.

And if the game is no longer being sold, it's basically abandonware, so you can "pirate" it with a free conscience. The music in the game isn't abandonware, but FUCK the music industry.

Fuck Microsoft too, honestly. I want to recommend buying the game while it's on sale, because I love it, but they don't deserve more money for refusing to support a game that I love. I doubt Remedy actually gets money from the game anymore, so even if you still like them after Quantum Break, it doesn't matter.

>>376832601
>Outrun 2006
Hurts especially, since it's one of the greatest games ever made. Sucks that Ferrari are such Jews, should have backed Sega in keeping the brand alive for a definite 4K update re-release in 2016.

I won't dispute it. Piracy of a product which can't be obtained legally is justifiable.

If I were to condense Steam's catalogue into a mere 20 games actually worth owning and playing, Alan Wake would be one of them.

Me too, but anyone who misses this sale can (and should) just pirate the game. There's nothing wrong with sharing it for free if they refuse to sell it. Only the music publishers will give a shit, but it's not about the music; it's about the game.

>game is on sale for super cheap

wish I weren't poor as shit right now I'd buy it in a heartbeat

>>376833145
Can't go wrong for 3 USD but it is no Max Payne or even Max Payne 2 in terms of atmosphere and quality shooting.

Avoid American Nightmare---it's really redundant with a brief navel-gazing reason explanation to why you are replaying the same three tight areas repeatedly in succession. And it's more combat focused which makes it the two pronged "flash a light on a monster man until he can be shot with a traditional gun" gameplay stretch too far.

>>376838768
Really? Why? Is it just for Alan Wake or did they remove that feature for all games? I can't try it now.

This happens all the time with racing games but you just don't really notice because nobody gives a fuck about Forza 3 getting delisted when the 7th one is coming this year.

So what generally happens when a game enters delist purgatory? Are the achievements and community page removed too? Will Steam still track your play time?

>>376838428
i just bought it for $4, checked bank account and it pulled 4 bucks. not sure what they're talking about.

>>376838775

I guess so. Most of the licensed music is in end-of-episode credits.

But maybe they don't have the funds to patch it (which might involve changing cut scene audio), or maybe the music label made them sign a deal promising that the music would never be removed from the game (as an incentive to renew the licenses).

>>376835721

Record labels want their money.
They're charging a few cents per song per copy but eventually that adds up on a $5-10 title after Steam/Xbox gets their cut.

They're no doubt working to charge $.0017 per youtube/twitch let's play viewer like they do with streaming radio.

Library consists of activated games. Inventory consists of games that are owned, but can be traded away, they're not "bound" to your account.

The original anon who was asking weather or not the inventory games will disappear or not had a valid point, but then the retard jumped in and starting frothing at the mouth about a question he didn't understand.

Not a game, but when Daria was released on DVD all the good music was replaced with more affordable music.

>>376840837
On Steam, you have an inventory. Game developers make cards, hats, in-game items, and other things that can be traded through this inventory.
You could trade a tf2 hat for a bunch of skyrim cards for example.
You can also buy games and gift/trade them in your inventory as well. You can trade a gift (game) for tf2 hats or skyrim cards for example.

Your steam library is the actual catalog of games that you added to your account. When you buy a game gift, you're basically taking a new game off the shelf and not opening it.

Stubbs was wiped because it absolutely did not run on modern systems. I still have it on Steam and there are plenty of people complaining about how it can't run.

Is American Nightmare also wroth getting?

>>376848259
unless you really love the original dont bother

>>376848173
Yeah I just looked at a torrent on PB for it and I saw the same complaints. What the hell is that about? Does it have something to do with the Halo engine?

>>376842914

That's bullshit.

>>376848259

It's not being removed from stores, so you'll have other chances to buy it. You don't need to decide now. And it will probably be 90% off again sometime soon, because people will care less about American Nightmare if they can no longer buy the original game with it.

>>376848259
It's bad and very repetitive. It reuses every map multiple times. The Horde mode is the only thing kind of fun about it.

It's a shame because I thought the tone shift to goofy/army of darkness-esq comedy and Mr. Scratch were good elements.

>>376848259
nah, its shit and i loved the original

>>376848173
I really wish I could play that game, never got the chance.

>>376831950
Darkspore is now literally unplayable because the game had online drm and ea closed down the servers.

>>376832764
True, the last sequence where you're running towards the lake while the dark presence throws locomotives and houses and shit at you was one of the best parts I've seen in a game in years. It was far from perfect but you can tell a lot of effort was put into it.

Alan Wake bros, is Quantum Break any good?

>>376840052
What? Last time I used SA music restoration fix and it worked, are you saying it won't now?
Really pushing me to piracy heme, I can only imagine how big of a shitstorm GTAV will be with its 300+ songs.

>>376848259
I liked it

It's not a bad album for an 8-bit band. They're fucking delusional thinking it's their worst work.

Only if it's under 5 bucks. Not spooky and the gameplay gets super repetitive after the first chapter, but not really that difficult especially as ou get better weapons

>>376848259
it was fun but it is very short and they recycle the 3 levels and sort of change what happens in them
6/10 playable and works to extend the alan wake feeling you get after playing it through for the first time

On Gog and Steam you can get it for $4 bucks for everything.

the only reason i keep an xbox 360 around is so i can play this game when I feel like it.

this game will eventually die off but right now it's in a hospice called the xbox 360 and once that platform dies off, it's gone forever.

I'm confused as to why American Nightmare has Night Springs Episodes as a bonus when the game didn't have Night Springs episodes since it itself was suppose to be an episode of Night Spring... Why would GOG include a bonus from the original game?

>>376848259
Who cares? It's an extra dollar.

the two DLC Episode are included with the main game, right? I'm talking about The Writer and The Signal.

>>376855113
These might have been xbox exclusives. But I'm not certain.

>>376855268
whoops I missed this on the steam page
>Includes Alan Wake Special Episodes “The Signal” and “The Writer”

Why is this allowed? Does it happen to movies too?

>>376831950
Onimusha 3 got delisted from Steam because the likeness contracts with Kaneshiro and Reno expired and they didn't see it as selling enough to justify renewing them.

>>376847675
That's not true. It's tied to accounts. If you get a new system you have to update the license or whatever to your new one. You can only do it every six months.

>>376855735
Usually with tv shows and movies, they just change the music but the movie lives on.

games...not sure. you have games like "Scott Pilgrim vs the Universe" where the entire score was made by one band and the second they the licensing is up, they can destroy media.

>>376831950
>Anyone know of any other cases where a game isnt allowed to be sold anymore?
Castle of illusion HD was removed last year because of licensing

LOGGING IS A HAZARDOUS OCCUPATION

Can anybody help me?
I can't manage to add this game to my steam inventory.

Is this game capable of running on a potato pc?

>>376857409
Define potato in this day and age

>>376840557
And Gearbox's portjob was even worse.

>>376840112
Really? I thought it was because of some minor dispute with Universal.

Same thing happened to FFVII Crisis Core ages ago

>>376857409
It was built to run on a PS3, so yes.

I read something was going on with Alan Wake yesterday here on /v/, didn't thought it was this though.

Its almost sunday bank is already closed and I can't recharge my prepaid card. I hope it returns like Umihara Kawase.

There's a Gog version without DRM. Seeders are almost certain to pop up when the game gets taken down.

pass the codes pham

>>376839269
You just can't buy it any more. Everything else should still be there.

>>376853852
Same, I keep my 360 because I have quite a few delisted games on it. Scott Pilgrim, MVC2, the original Ninja Turtles arcade game, the X-Men arcade game I wish companies would stop letting games get delisted. also source on pic? searching only found threads on /pol/ and /g/

I bought it on Humble Bundle expecting just to get the two games, and having to get the extra stuff on Steam
but on Humble Bundle, it has EVERY bonus item for download, even the ones Steam doesn't have. Why the hell don't they list this shit on the page?

>>376841438
>Anamanaguchi thinks it s their worst work.
While I don't doubt that the band might (stupidly) think that, that doesn't sound like a believable reason not to renew the license.
