This is basically people who don't even own Xbox consoles trying to pull a gotcha moment over racing game licensing shenanigans. The people that actually care about this have ways to address it. I'm all for blasting corporations for pulling bullshyt. If anything the licensing model that lets companies use a brand for a game with some sort of time limit on the deal that then has to be renewed due to digital availability is ridiculous.

There's legit games that aren't iterative sports games like Marvel Vs Capcom 2 that are in licensing hell right now. These digital storefronts allow for all sorts of licensing fukkery that gets games delisted. Meanwhile one can simply walk into a store and purchase a physical copy of some of these delisted games.

Not if they own a series s

Xbox stans made a big deal about Jim ryan asking, “who wants to play gran turismo 2” yet

The physical game they bought and still own.

If you buy a digital only console you're signing up for situations like this. I don't advocate anyone only owning a console with no physical disc drive. The Xbox Series S is an abomination that shouldn't exist. They only made it to hit a price point and cut corners to do it that shouldn't have been cut.

I have more of an issue with the Series S itself existing than Forza 7 being delisted.

OT but the series S is really trash unless you haven’t owned an xbox since 360 and you’re considering price over performance when jumping back into the xbox ecosystem

I’m so tired of trying to hunt down a 2nd XSX that I took a look again at the XSS specs to see the disparity but the shyt is worse than the xbox one x yet being called a next gen console

they should’ve just made an XSX with 512GB and charge like $349.99 or some shyt

Funny how in another thread yall are talking about Microsoft buying take two like it’s nothing, but here yall coming up with reasons why licensee is too much money for microsoft to renew for a year

Pay for a license on an old game, when the new one is right around the corner

Those who want the game, are free to buy it now.

MS can afford the license, but no one is playing Forza 7, so it's a waste of time and money

I understand it's related to licensing, but FM7 was utter garbage anyways. They should delist it from their release history, too.

I get delisting it but I do feel they should wait until the new one releases before they did that but that's just me. lol. Beauty of owning physical copies.

Guaranfukkingtee you if this was a Playstation game being delisted with the next sequel being possibly a year+ away this convo would've looked different.

You do know there is a digital only PlayStation also right?
