Rare Games Not Available Anywhere Including Steam, Epic, GOG and It's Digital Only
Based on the title above, I'm really keen on searching Rare games that is NOT HERE on anywhere. First of all, the only rare game that I tried to find is several Marvel Games that MAYBE used to be in Steam, I don't know, maybe, I guess?

Anyways, looking back at the old Activision, they have a good Marvel Games from:
- Spider-Man 3
- Spider-Man Web of Shadows
- Spider-Man Shattered Dimension
- X-Men Origins: Wolverine: UNCAGED EDITION
- Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 & 2

Also, there is this short comic-book game based on Mark Millar comics called WANTED that was really good, but it's a shame that this game might not exist/remembered anymore like they was.

What I wanted to discuss here is:
- Was any of these games I mention was in Steam?
- If not here, where can I get the digital version of the game?
- Still playable in newer computer/laptop that operates either in Windows 8.1/10?

I wanted to purchase a retail version, but I found those very rare nowadays and it's hard to find, other than piracy, so if any of you still remember this, is there a way get it?

Sincerely.
- RESENTMENT

Some of them were on Steam.
The games are no longer sold as the license expired and the publisher can not legally sell them anymore.
You can try to get some unsealed retail copies or if it doesn't use any prohibitive DRM even a used copy. But expect to pay a lot.
Regarding playability, depends entirely on the game.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Well 'rare' games aren't really a thing :steamfacepalm:
Games that were taken off the store, don't mean they're 'rare' lol.
But here you go anyways:
DARK SOULS™: Prepare To Die™ Edition
Metro 2033
Metro Exodus (Coming back soon anyways)
TRANSFORMERS™: RISE OF THE DARK SPARK (Check this one out)
To you, but the titles I mention is almost f@#%!ng old than anyone could remember (including me).

This....Well, they just REPLACED by a REMASTERED, except TRANSFORMERS (which I give zero f@#%), because I played it on console.

Well I tried helping you, and apparently you didn't want it.
The games I listed can no longer be bought on Steam, so does that not make them rare?

Tbh dude, I don't know what you mean by 'rare' game lmao.
What I mean was, some of them are between 2000s like those I mentioned. Yours I still remembered. And you only help me by telling me that "THIS (YOUR MENTIONS)" cannot be bought on Steam and some of them I remember well and is REPLACED by their REMASTERED versions.

I mean c'mon, you know this already and It ain't what I'm lookin' for.:steamsad:

No One LIves Forever 1/2 + Jack, amazing games full of good humor and solid FPS. Due to copyright issues no one publishes it now, but developers give it away for free in digital format. Would work out of the box on win 7, might need some tweaks for W10 I guess
(look at this, I just pasted link to site of developers but steam removes it, so if you're interested google this game and you'll see how to obtain legit copy of it)

Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse
amazing game where you play as zombie and infect humans. amazing experience, fun. maybe it has console release but it's not published for PC

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain
first game in LoK series, published on consoles, still lacks PC version for purchase. I'd say it is better than older LoK games, being 2D and in different setting, with nice controls compared to 3D of early era.

Haha. Let me get this straight. You want me to suggest games that you can't remember, or have never heard of? Well, my apologies. Let me just suggest every game to exist on this platform.

If you want the games you listed above. Search for a key online. Goodbye. Have a nice day.
Now this is helpful.

This is interesting. I'll give it a go then.

There was aa PC version actually. but it went out of print quickly.
Most of the times these games go out of circulation is due to IP and licensing issues.
I mean I'm still hoping to snag X-men Legends 1 and 2 again. Might actually happen now that both fox and Marvel are under the same umbrella.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirates_of_the_Caribbean_(video_game)

This game is super rare. Only a few copies were made and pc copies are even rarer at a time when Pc gaming wasn’t that popular. The game is basically Sea Dogs 2 but Disney bought the rights right before the movie was released as a tie in. The game was already finished, so it barely makes any references to the movie. But because Disney bought it, they still own the rights, so while all the other Sea Dogs games are on Steam, this one isn’t until Disney gives the go ahead (which isn’t likely to happen ever because Disney doesn’t care about old products). The game is also pretty mediocre until you install the New Horizons mod, which is basically the ultimate pirate simulator. Imagine something like a more in-depth Blackflag with the gameplay of Sid Meiers Pirates! That’s the best way I can describe it. Completely open world pirate simulator.
