I'm still bummed I can't play Outrun Online (though I did on 360 a while back!), but I did manage to snag Afterburner for PSN. It's still really good.
Time to ride the crazy chair!
Too late. It's already delisted. You'd think companies would announce this ahead of time to get that one last surge of sales.

That's too bad, Marvel Super Heroes is still super fun.
Why do companies make these stupid arrangements? Can't they make a deal that the license applies to that specific game forever? I don't hear of movies getting removed from existence a few years later because a company decided it no longer wanted its product placement in it. The video game industry is retarded.

I blame the platform holders for failing to make this mandatory.
Most license holders keep things on a pretty close leash, it's not a big surprise.
I don't see why they even go for licenses like that for certain things. No one gives a damn about the plane. No one who cares about Outrun 2 really cares about the Ferrari itself
Not saying licenses (especially cars) aren't important, but the people that would care about that one will say "5 minute game? pffft"

I'm sure a lot of the time the license helps fund the making of the game; it's a sort of vanity project. I'm sure a lot of money exchanges hands for the "super accurate real world guns' in a Call of Duty game.

I guess that's one of the perks of physical distribution, you get to keep the game "forever" even if it becomes an awful unsupported mess (marvel 3)
