Nooooooooooo
If by “grab”, you mean “pirate”. Don’t reward them for taking games away.
I think I have a single Steam game from within which I can then run those games. How would I backup the delisted games?
I think if you own that you’re still able to download them afterwards
No, you need to install them as well. It’ll work as long as it’s installed, but after they’re delisted, I don’t think steam can even distribute them.
I know I have at least one game “grid: race driver” that was delisted from steam, at some point I must have uninstalled it, and now I can’t download it, it doesn’t even show up in my library. I’ve been trying like hell to find a way to play it, but even pirated versions are being difficult.
It’s extremely rare for a delisted game to be removed from your library, and they only do it in cases where, for instance, the game would literally be unplayable because the server isn’t there anymore. Often times they won’t remove the game from your library in that situation either. Having the game in your library is, in fact, enough.
If they don’t want me to buy them then why should I buy them now instead of borrowing them for free for unspecified amount of time from the Internet?
I bought them ages ago and let me tell you, crazy taxi without the offspring is just not the same. Borrowing the original versions for free from the internet is the only way to go.
There are mods for it to restore the soundtrack and other little tweaks.
Get it before it’s gone! Go fast! Spend money! Don’t just pirate it when it becomes unavailable!!
OH no they don’t want my money? Now’s not the time, I won’t bother then
right? I already have the ones I give a shit about … On my shelf where they can’t de-list them.
they are probably cooking something, maybe their own platform? who knows
Probably remasters or remakes. They don’t want to compete with themselves.
maybe, but for 60 games at once?
This generates “buzz” it’s free marketing
It’ll be in a compilation pack, I’d bet
I wonder if it’s a licensing thing. I know a few of these games had heavy use of licensed music, like Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxy. At least, the original versions did, I’m not sure if that’s the case for the Steam ports.
