I was looking at the capcom EVO sale and saw onimusha still at 60% off (never lower since release). Then i found that onimusha 3 was on steam and i missed it. well before my time. Ubisoft was the publisher, no surprise, they remove everything and stop support as you may know from the recent debacles. The forum said Oni didn't sell well enough, because genius capcom released the worse version of the first and not the fan favorite 2 or co-op dreams as a way to test interest. They should have done all 3 games in one remaster, but the licensing probably was an investment they didn't want to pay. No doubt it would have sold much better.

speaking of (lack of) sales and price changes, see DMC, megaman, Res Evil. Russia removed from prices and South America, Turkey almost 10x raised. If you didn't buy it before, rest in peace. Same thing happened on some SEGA products like most Yakuza

Different topic, speculating but...
The giveaway section blocks giving the same key on the same account. So the multiaccounters / regifters giving the same old armored tank DLC have gotten tired of recreating it, and chose a more expensive one that speeds up the process. Always ~20 entries, probably the same user to boost themselves.

I'll just leave this shiny pokemon here
Yakuza is an entirely different can of worms (I actually got a "kick" out of a few of them myself)...but there was some debate between nintendo and some old issue where they actually got involved in the Yakuza and it was a major fall for the entire franchise...read into it if your interested. i found it quite enlightening to see nintendo involved with them at one point in history.

Anyone know if the hot wheels game from the GAs is i a bundle somewhere? Hopefully with other N-Scale (joke) racing games?

I blew all my silver on that, Worms, and My Hidden Things for the couple people who missed it around here :ROFLMAO:

But that ones pricey in the silver dept, so I assume it came from a bundle or a sale.

If I'm one of the people you're entering My Hidden Things for, don't worry about me. I successfully won it in a giveaway! But there was at least one other person who also missed out, so maybe they still want it.

Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT:

Removing any users from my guesses because I'm in 100 degree weather with a beer buzz about to pass out standing :ROFLMAO:

One down, one to go. If the second user happened to get a copy, I'd appreciate a heads up...I could care less for it.

What's more sad is gta definitive edition actually earned decent amount of money.
Diablo Immortal is probably the worse among all of them. It already has surpassed 100 million dollar revenue. This is why I hate freemium game so much. Cause it's taking advantage of people with gambling addiction. Recently there was this one rich whale who alone spent 100K on this game. His player is so strong that he can't find players in match making. While this guy deserved it, in the end, the winner is the company who made diablo immortal.
I always heard that microtransaction started with Oblivion horse armor dlc. Though don't know if it's accurate or not.
Have you played Chinese MMORPG? Then $100K can only get you ONE SINGLE ITEM. I kid you not. 😬🤣

ya but thats approx $750 USD lmao.

Bottom line, Micro-transactions suck, and I've never paid for them beyond general DLC. I think I spent $5 on Helix Credits ONCE to get a Bow i wanted in assassins creed...forget the fact of them just taking them away.

I never have, and never will...another reason I hate online (should've left it on-lie) gaming and most FPS war games.

100 Thousand American Dollars, not Renminbis.
