This is one of the reasons because I'll never PAY for a game..., get the cracked versions!

Some games are worth the money (Mass Effect games).
Other games like Prototype should go in the 99 cent or $5 bins immediately like movies go straight to DVD. They shouldn't be $50 for a month or two before going there.

All your games belong to us!
I wonder what the EU will have to say about this.

Ya that's pretty bad, you own these they should be obligated in some sense to provide you what you paid for. I think it's possible. However, the same would apply to consoles too if you bought them electronically. You can scream and complain about Steam but console is the same. I left Sony and PS3 when I found out after being in the Plus program that when I did not renew they took everything I had and the games I paid a few bucks for, were then classified as demo's. Total BS. Had they said that in big letters before I agreed to Plus I would have never joined Plus. Throwing it into a big as shit EULA is BS. Then they have the audacity to blame pirating for poor sales. Rolling Eyes

The even more sad is that people will eventually have no choice but to buy electronically. Not many stores even shelf pc games anymore.

this can work in USA but not in my country, we have laws to prevent this kind of behavior, once u sign an agreement u only can change it if both parts say yes. ONLY .. so i smell a lawsuit !
