So when they decide to save storage by stopping serving 20 years old game me and my one buddy play I have to pray it comes back one day? Fuck no. We are already loosing cinema history because of streaming.
There are games that are supposed to be consumed like fast-food (like online shooters that depend on large number of players) but these aren't even majority.

I propose a deal: they serve us games via subscriptions but the moment they pull a plug on a game they are bound by law to make it available on torrents
