Welp they are deadCourtesy of lashman:
Only a couple of games are still on the store but you can't purchase them. RIP.
If you bought these games do you get to keep them?
How will we archive such horribleness?!

If they're smart, they will walk away. Maybe they can come back later and genuinely try to make genuine games.So Digital Homicide is gonna sue Valve now, right?
This is amazing.
After ages trying to sue Jim Sterling, seems they are moving on to sue anyone who dares to criticise them anywhere. They've filled action against 100 anonymous Steam users.
SidAlpha's video on the situation
Court documents
According to MMOFallout, Digital Homicide has filled a subpoena against Valve to make Valve reveal the indentities of those 100 Steam users.

These guys are neither smart nor sane.If they're smart, they will walk away. Maybe they can come back later and genuinely try to make genuine games.
No sane person would sue Valve over this.

This is amazing.
Heh.If they're smart, they will walk away.

Holy shit, that didn't take long.Courtesy of lashman:
Their Facebook page is proud to highlight all the games they have for sale on Steam.Do these guys have a Twitter or social media presence?

Well, that didn't take long. Biting the hand that feeds you is one thing. Threatening it with a lawsuit? Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.
Plus, this is great ammunition for Jim to possibly use in his suit.

Wait there was a defense force for this? How?!?!? I mean I don't like Jim but I still think these guys are batshit crazy.

Will the courts throw it out now that the games no longer "exist" in the original state that they were played in?
Eh, where do you draw the line though?To be honest, it's stunning that this is the line they had to cross before anything was done considering all they've been getting away with. Like I'm so happy they've effectively played themselves off the platform, but damn, I just hope no other idiots take the wrong lessons away from this, i.e. "this is valve's threshold, everything below is fair game", because that's almost the message Valve sent by not addressing any of this sooner.
I told you valve was going to commit a digital homicide!!!Courtesy of lashman:
Inb4 defence force comes out again.
Eh, where do you draw the line though?
How shitty does a game have to be to be de-listed?
How dickish do devs have to be to their critics or fans for that to happen?
Drawing a line at a dev attempting to sue Valve's customers seems like a good one.
