Someone in legal on Sony's side fucked up.

They should issue refunds. Whether they will or not though....

    They will ALMOST CERTAINLY. But my point is this doesn't really help... Let's say a game I really like, I dunno Wreckfest (substitute you own idc) gets yanked from Steam. Here is my 24.99 EUR back. Okay fine, fair enough (it isn't but whatever), where can I buy the game again? Well REALLY you can't, you can either buy gamepass forever (Until it gets yanked from there again), or you can go and hunt down a rare an expensive Xbox physical release.

    So have I been reimbursed for my loss? No, because the 24.99 is no substitute for the game I had and wanted.

    In the case of Steam, something I bought was pulled from the store, but it's still in my library, and I can still redownload it. Even though it can't be found by people who didn't buy it anymore. This seems to be the general Steam strategy.
