Its probably a licensing technicality.

No longer available to purchase but you can still download it, probably gonna stay on Game Pass for a few more years too.

I guess they're clearing some server space for the next Forza Motorsport in a year or two.
It's leaving Gamepass the same day as well.

It's their excuse of licensing issues. We've all seen racing games as far as Need for Speed: Undercover(2008) to go on sale till this year( and it wasn't removed due to licensing issues).

I guess they only get a license for short term, Forza Horizon 3 was pulled from sales not too long ago.

Here's an interesting little case study 🤣

Necrokiller had a mithai ki dukaan. He made massive revenue from a series of outlets across the country, thanks in part to an on-going "buy 1 get 2 free" promotion. However, the operating expenses and the cost of producing the mithai ended up almost twice of the revenue.

Q. Was Necrokiller's business successful?
a) If your answer is yes, please explain how you determined your assessment.
b) If your answer is no, please explain what he could do to make it a success.

How do we know that Xbox is trailing behind Sony and Nintendo? Is that assessment also based on revenue figures? I think it's safe to say that this is still true given that MS doesn't share profit figures. They would've been throwing the numbers in everyone's face if they were making profits comparable to Sony or Nintendo. Though I think MS is still in the recovery phase and they might have something to show (in terms of profit) 2-3 years down the road with frequent releases of their first-party studios' games (and long-term sales of Series X/S, GPU, etc.).

MS hasn't shared hardware sale numbers since almost the start of the XBO generation. So the only way we're gonna find out is via insiders, we're probably never getting official numbers.

Did you purchased the developer account?
No, you can do it on retail as well, you gotta sign up for some dudes discord who whitelists your email so you can download the app using the console web browser.

It's .. weird .. but it works.

I got MGS1 running at 4K on the SX via Retroarch. The process definitely works.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
