7 More Games You Can’t Buy Anymore, Because Lawyers

Not long ago, we looked at just some of the games that aren't available any longer for weird legal reasons. But we dug up a whole bunch, so here are even more games that you can't buy, because lawyers.
Part 1 here! • 7 Great Games You Can’...
Note: Fun news! Since recording this video, Too Human has returned to the Xbox Marketplace, as part of Microsoft's Backwards Compatibility program. It's FREE, so technically you still can't buy it (and you should still play Gears of War instead).

It shouldn’t be possible for a finished game to need its license renewed. Licenses should only be required to make the thing; once you have a finished game, companies should be able to sell it forever. That would solve so many of these problems.

[@700gsteak]

A perpetual license is worth more than a time limited one. If time limited licences were removed, then it would take away the developers ability to negotiate a price for a license and the rights holder would just price it at a stupid amount of money meaning no/less games are made.

[@ghosty918]

It's utterly ridiculous, even if you don't give out a perpetual license. Just give out a limited one, not time limited but product limited. You get the right to [Insert Specific Title here] and all relevant copyright elements limited to the advertisement, promotional material and product of [Specific Video Game]. This does not extend to any additional video game, or additional content after the final release copy.

[@taln0reich]

Totally agree. I mean, thats how it works with movies. You should only need a license to make new content. I mean movie studios don't have to pull movies from the stores if their license runs out, they just have to renegotiate the license if they want to make a new installment. Why should it work differently for video games?

[@BW022]

The problems with perpetual licenses is that someone can release new paid content -- whether in form of continuing to use an online license, expansion pacts, mods, etc. and then you have to spend huge amounts of legal time and money trying to stop them since now courts have to decide what is a new game vs. fixing the old game, vs. mods, etc. If you rewrite the same game using a modern engine (say Baldur's Gate) or for new platforms (say iOS or Android), or add multi-player, etc. is that a new game? How much new stuff can you add before its a new game -- bug fixes, new sprites, new levels, characters, artwork, expansion packs, etc. Easier and safer for the copyright holder just to set a time line. If the game does well, you of course extend it. If not, you aren't worried about future use of the "same" game in some other way.

[@taln0reich]

@@BW022 I actually see an easy way to differentiate between new content and fixing the old content. Everything that (for the customer) is covered by the initial purchase of the game is part of the original content (and therefore covered), everything the customer has to pay for afterward is new content. So a bugfix would still be covered by the initial license (even EA is not that bad to demand money for bugfixes - hopefully I'm not giving them any ideas) but a paid-for story DLC would have to be renogiated. In terms of platforms, I would see that as analog to how movies come on different formats. So the contract-partners could either say the platform doesn't matter (with the video game studio being free to make games for other platforms as long as only the original content plus what for the other platforms is free is implemented) or they could agree to a particular selection of platforms, renegotiating if the studio wants to bring the game out for a platform not covered by the contract.

[@evinfritschle5794]

I remember buying a used copy of Too Human once upon a time. It wasn't an awful game, but I never knew how long it took to develop or any of the story behind it. Thanks for that interesting trivia nugget.

[@Shadowslash1]

Oh man, its a hell of a tale and they barely scratched the surface. I recommend if you have 20 mins you watch Matt McMuscles's Wha' Happen on Too Human.

[@SuperUkcats]

And this my friends, is why piracy exists and will continue to exist as long as corporations continue to be jackasses!

[@riseofthethorax]

Piracy existed in the 70s before Microsoft even made a dime, it was because before commercial software development for consumers programmers were hired to develop software for mainframes that dwarfed the software development in cost. It is when it became cheap to own computers that commercial software took off the ground. However people were pirating software and Bill Gates was a key figure in pushing the concept of distributing software PRODUCTS. Before that, software was free and people never paid for it apart from the development costs to hire programmers to initially develop it. So once people got hooked on using software, when the Internet and Ethernet networks, and encryption, came on the scene someone combined these to create license servers to keep people from owning their software. We now buy licenses to use software, we don't have the capacity to trade it, that means are money doesn't hold much value anymore and people in software industry don't compete or ever have to worry about competing to flooding the market with titles on their next releases. But what got them there was the the excuse that people pirated their software so much they couldn't make the sales figures they had projected to their creditors.. Which is assumed as they include people who pirate their software as potential sales. BTW Apple, you've lost me as a consumer when you pulled GarageBand from the iPad 3.. When you did that, you made me very leery of ever buying anything more from the store. Such business practice is driving me to yell a lot more about the virtues of freeware and open source. However if you want to remain in a secure environment and buy software, it's best to buy in the Apple app store, or if you choose Android, a trusted app distributor like Google Play. If you venture out of that, you risk acquiring malware, as it is in the best interest of criminals to exploit this vulnerability.

where consoles make a good chunk of money is game sales,with how easy the psp got hacked and loaded with free games and movies people loved the console,but not very many games sold well on it because most were just flat out pirated.

[@unculturedswine5583]

@@nerdlord2288 it's a shame then and I wasn't ever aware of that, it had some of the most memorable games I played back then. God of war,monster Hunter freedom series, dissidia ff and countless other were pretty much home console level games. Luke and Ellen's thoughts on it are hilarious but honestly I was disappointed after moving to the 3ds when the vita failed,with most games it didn't feel like an older switch-type full on console like the psp did. It felt like a stripped down console. I can still remember clearly the excitement I felt as my father unpacked his luggage and handed me the games he bought this time. He'd never forget about it when he went abroad on his business trips. As a third world country, the games we had locally were scarce and ridiculously overpriced and before every trip, my older brother would give the list of good games he should bring from in this trip. I haven't thought about it all in so long. It's... it's been such a long time since I thanked him for it... I'll try to think out what I can get him for now.

No One Lives Forever - stuck in legal limbo because literally no one is sure who actually owns the rights to the franchise. Some years back, an independent studio attempted to update it for re-release on modern platforms. That's when they discovered that there are 3 different companies who may potentially own the rights, but they all admit they're not sure if they do - but they will definitely sue anyone else if they try to claim them. So NOLF and NOLF 2 will never be remade, remastered, re-released, or even stuck on Steam for download.

One major game franchise that you overlooked is Star Trek. In the 2000s, Activision held the license to make games based on the Star Trek franchise. They made some really good games, like space combat simulator Bridge Commander, the Elite Force FPS series, and the Armada RTS series. But Activision eventually lost the license, and the games were pulled from distribution. A few years ago some of the Star Trek games from the 90s published by Interplay made their way to digital storefronts, but a lot of Star Trek games are still tied up by lawyers.

I hope all the people cheering on the death of physical media because digital is "more convenient" are happy with this situation because the consoles go all digital, this is going to be the fate of entire libraries of games. You think when Sony is launching the PS9, that they're still going to have PS5 games up for download, even without licensing issues? It would be a miracle if the older console was even still allowed to connect to their network. And speaking of licensing; It's incredibly fucked up that a license for something like a finished game can expire. I can understand a company's license to make NEW games expiring, but it makes no logical sense that once a company has produced a game and put it on the market, they have to keep renewing the license. Once a company makes a licensed product, they should have the right to sell that product forever. Today's copyright is destroying creativity.

[@MikeP828]

Saying the licensing issue is an “issue of today” is incredibly misleading. This has been an issue since the dawn of video gaming.

[@lurkerrekrul]

@Mike P - Maybe licensing has always worked this way, but in the past, with physical products, you never heard about game companies having to pull existing products from stores because their license ran out. You never saw game headlines like "Buy that Ghostbuster's game while you can because on the 30th, you won't be able to find it in stores anymore." It's been 33 years since Activision published their licensed Aliens game for the computers of the time, so I'm sure their license has long expired, but you're still allowed to buy copies of this game, provided you can find any. And you misunderstood my example with the PS5/PS9. I wasn't saying that the PS9 would or should run PS5 games. Let's say that you have a PS9, but suppose that there's a PS5 exclusive game that you always wanted to play, but never got. You buy a used PS5 console just to play that game, but since the distribution was all digital, you can't just buy a physical copy of the game you want, it has to be downloaded. Will that PS5 still be allowed to connect to the Playstation Network, and if so, will they still have PS5 games available to buy? If not, where are you going to get the games for previous consoles? And yes, this in a concern. Right now, there are games on systems like the Gamecube and PS2 that I still want to play. for those, I can just buy a physical copy and play it. But if the distribution is all digital, where do you get digital copies of games once the console has been declared obsolete and nobody supports it?

[@lurkerrekrul]

@JukaDominator - Piracy is a possibility, but not every game for every console gets pirated anymore. Can you find a complete, pirated copy of Burnout Paradise for the PS3? And if so, how do you jailbreak the system to play it?
