when games get this old, they have already out run their sell by date, and should be sold for one dollar, squeezing every single cent from the product like this is just plain greedy.

There is nothing worse then buying a bargain game to find out it has no multiplayer base. So I say go ask some questions in the game you plan to purchases forums like whats the player base like before you buy a lesser known title. I have that street fighter haven't played it in like a year, it was laggy which is very annoying in a fighting game because its hard to get down a good pace when each match goes at a different speed. (PC)

Duke nukem forever still has a good player base.
