can't a studio just leave a product "abandoned" on steam store?

I mean, GTA 4 still has "games for windows live" enabled and steam don't care.
they removed gfwl years ago when they changed it to the "complete edition" and removed multiplayer, you need the rockstar launcher now

More games I doubt I'll ever play. :P

How many launchers do I have an account with already...

Steam
Epic
IndieGala
GOG
Amazon
Ubisoft Connect
EA

Rockstar Launcher was offering GTA San Andreas for free for a limited time before, but god damn, that's too many launchers as it is. :-/

What will happen in the future with all these launchers? They'll probably be around though it's annoying to have games split around so many services.

I've been trying to avoid the Rockstar Launcher and if I eventually play GTA IV on PC I'll still need it. lol

The studio went under and they were no longer able to maintain and update the game on steam. At least thats what the dev says.
still doesn't see the reason why they have to remove it from steam. they could still put it there for people to buy which means more profit, unless there's some kind of fees i don't aware of for them to sell it.

Just claimed Rayman Raving Rabbids via the Ubisoft PC launcher although I probably will never play that.

The GBA and DS versions look so much better and actually what you'd expect from a Rayman game! :)

The console versions all play the same including the 360 one, a bunch of mini-games clumped together.. I assume the pc version is the same?
Btw, i completed the game many times on the ps2, ah..

Rayman 4 got canceled for this crappy mini games' release. :(

The prototype of Rayman 4 is now playable on PC, but it's obviously very incomplete, buggy, and glitchy. Would be cool if someone made a custom version of Rayman 4 Protype where it'd only include playable stages, polished, and have fun playing it.

I can not download it. For me it does not appear to add to library. :(

And it's not in the library.
I claimed it and then when I pressed that button, it took me to my profile to download the game.

https://www.indiegala.com/library/bundle/2

That icon indicates a download should begin almost immediately (unless you're using a download manager), yet that's not how it works.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
