first of all, here's a giveaway

just as the title says, there are always some games in your library that are not available on steam store anymore. In my case it is ghostbusters: the video game. I loved it so much and it was actually the first game I ever bought on steam (was on a Halloween sale in 2010. I used to be console player, didnt pay much attention to pc but when I could not find the game at the local disc store, I got the game from steam and gradually become a worshiper of Gaben and Notch)

do you have any games like that in your library?

edit: just change the title, you should also value them too. if fable 3 is pulled from the steam store, no tears would be shed on that day. (fable 1 is an exception)

Blur - This game is good, if you like filling bars of experience points. It's not really a racing game, more of a Bar Filling Simulator. (This was stolen from a comic, maybe penny arcade). Jokes aside, the game is pretty good.

Prey (Don't own it own steam, but I kinda want it in my library)

Neverwinter Nights 2 is the only game that I have that was pulled from store I think. I never finished it so I don't think I can say I adore it but it was enjoyable while I played it.

This brings up a question though. Can steam ever pull a game from your library saying they just don't provide it anymore? After all, the games in your library legally aren't 100% yours... I don't know why they would ever do that but I wonder if they could/would.

nah, the moment you click purchase, a digital copy of the game is yours to keep and do whatever you want through steam client. steam then cant take an intellectual property away from you since it's not even their anymore.

Except you buy a license not the game. It's more a long term rental to they see fit to send the digital heavies to reclaim it

Horrid Henry was one of the best games ever on Steam, rivaling the likes of Secrets of the Magic Crystals and Revelations 2012. Seriously, though, it was one of the best troll giveaways. And now it's gone :(

wish I'd picked up Ghostbusters :(
DiRT (the first one) is awesome.
Prey was really very nice (and had portals before Portal! ;)).
And Indigo Prophecy is (except for the ending) very very goood.
I also have Blur, but not activated yet... bought it on sale last summer after playing it with friends on an Xbox or something.
And I picked up Mafia on Amazon (not available anymore) after it disappeared from Steam -- had it bookmarked for months afterward just waiting for a sale and hoping it didn't sell out before that happened.
Didn't realize Transcripted or Horrid Henry were pulled -- only have the first one, unfortunately.

List of stuff removed from Steam! (this thread changes authors every once in a while, so if you bookmark it, check the last page every so often to make sure it's not abandoned)

[edit] Reading through some other threads, apparently you can't buy Riddick anymore either?! Another I'm happy to have already. [/edit]

Close Combat series. If you could take the price down as well I'd appreciate that. $40 for a five year old game with 16 bit graphics running on a slightly improved engine from '93. Really? $50 for the physical copy.
