MMOHut, "There are some game designers out there, usually the exception to the rule, that hold fast to the belief that gamers enjoy themselves most when they are given as much creative control over their character and the game world as possible. Will Wright, the man behind the now legendary “Sim” game franchise, comes to mind immediately, as do a few others like Peter Molyneux, and various, assorted small game studios that are mostly defunct and long gone..."
At GDC 2024, Convai showed off a new AI NPC demo made with Unity. They also announced new features and partnerships with game developers.

From Xfire: "It's been estimated that roughly half of the video games ever released on the market can no longer be downloaded or purchased. Whether this is exactly correct is not the point. Rather, we think that either way, the video game industry, as a whole, has done a terrible job at preserving video games and making older titles available to play for future generations."
You can play all of these games still lol. The headline is just misleading. Funny is that there is not one game in the list that you really can't play anymore due to it being online only games.
One you actually legit cannot play AT ALL is Noby Noby Boy. I miss turning my brain off and messing around in that game, was so psyched to re-download it when i rebought a ps3 slim, but you cant, even if it's in your downl library, along with a few other obscure PS3 games i had.
I would replace Transformers Devastation with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron tho.
Transformers Devastation was good but not as good as Fall and War of Cybertron they should be on the list. SH 2 I can play any time I want since it came free in a $10 Xbox I bought used. The Simpsons Arcade I have on my PS3 surprised the Xmen Arcade game is not on this list or the Turtles arcade game either.
