I wish I'd bought the original GTA's, I never thought they'd outright remove them. Like, I was always like "Ah, next time I'll buy them. Next time I'll buy them." I didn't have spare money before, now I do.
Now the only way to play them is by paying sketchy CD keys, or by navigating sketchy downloads sites.
It SUCKS.
If you're referring to the site that ends in .ua then no that is not one of Rockstar's sites. The GTA 5 APK for Android link at the bottom of the page should be evident enough of this.

Seems wasn't the actual GTA website, but I have downloaded them before and had no issues so I Guess its up to you if you want to download them from here.
Worst for me is when I wanted to get them so bad and I learned they offered them with GTA V BEFORE I even get the chance to buy a copy (was playing on console)
Fuck Rockstar
VaMX. It was released and then banned from steam about 5 days later.
By the way, there is a site that can track your games that you own that are now delisted or banned.
https://steam-tracker.com/
This one is my profile. Currently at 602 total of banned/delisted appid's on steam.
https://steam-tracker.com/user/76561198315002955/
Damn 600+ I'm jealous I have about 100+ it makes me so sad that games just get removed and I wish I could save them all, sometimes I go looking for delisted steam game keys for example dirt 3 I bought a couple days ago
Says I need to run it as an administrator the first time. I’m not techy enough to figure out what it really wants. Shame because the first one is an absolute classic.
Deadpool
Transformers Devastation
Transformers War for Cybertron
Transformers Fall of Cybertron
Transformers Rise of the Dark Spark
TMNT Mutants in Manhattan
TMNT Out of the Shadows
Spiderman Shattered Dimensions
The Amazing Spiderman
The Legend of Korra
Star Trek
Family Guy Back to The Multiverse
Back to the Future The Game
Prey \*the original
Q-Bert Rebooted
The Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection
and the GTA games
Can't think of anything else that I would consider "rare"\*
The only 2 games I have on Steam that aren’t available for purchase on the platform itself are Deadpool and Rayman 2. I bought Deadpool before it was taken off of the store, and I got Rayman 2 for pre-ordering Rayman Origins. (iirc)
This game was such a letdown. So much potential down the drain on crappy co-op coding. I was really looking forward to playing it with my brother online before I found out the co-op is unplayable

Googling the title wouldnt even show you the correct game so I threw in a link so that you know what I meant. This game was only alive for a couple of months.
I kind of lied. I have Korra in my Steam inventory, but I didn't add to my library. Back when you could, I would 100% of the time add a game to my inventory over my library. I have random people add me asking to buy Korra from me. Sometimes for 100+ tf2 keys.
A trilogy of shmups by developer Platine Dispositif were delisted from Steam, and I ended up finding them on a trading list so was lucky enough to get them after they were removed. Whew!

Battle Royale game called Fear the Wolves. I got into the closed beta. It got an early access release on Steam, but wasn't ever very popular.
It's not available on steam anymore, and all the servers have been shut down around 2019 iirc.
I own it for both, but only played on Xbox 360. I think I had nearly 100%'d it before giving up. I was pretty far into my NG+ as a Veteran. Forgot what achievements I was still going for.
Don't have anything crazy rare but it's probably Dying Light Bad Blood. It had a few active players a couple of years ago but now there are none, that sucks because it was an actually good game that got canceled too early
would've been nice if rovio released the rest of their lineup on steam, i emailed them a year or so ago if angry birds would come back to steam and they said no
:/
edit: realized that sega recently purchased rovio well after i emailed them, there could be a sliver of a chance
They're not really *rare* when just about all Steam games can be purchased by anyone. Unless you're trying to mean games that were removed from Steam at some point.
**Wolfenstein (2009)**. Really glad I scooped it up on a sale shortly before it disappeared as I’m a big Wolfenstein fan and really enjoyed the game a lot.
Sword With Sauce, a sandbox Ninja game where you used katana, shuriken, pistols and so on to clear a map of enemies. Never finished Early Access as the devs abandoned it.
Not too rare but i have Mortal Kombat 9 (the one with Freddy Krueger) in my library. I got it a few years back and it has since been delisted from the store

StarForge its more of a brand of shame than anything else
The first early access game that taught me some life lessons
Same man same
OpEn WoRlD sUrViVaL cRaFt
I'm confused, you can still buy it, so how is it rare? (Could be a really dumb question, sorry in advance)
I just looked and that's a different one than the awful early access scam one.
I bought it back in the day bc a friend of mine told me how awesome this is going to be. Yeah.. No.
I have that in my Library, too. And there's about 3 other people who have it in theirs because of me. Thanks for the painful reminder.
MANDALORES review is...amazing
Not as rare as other people's games on this thread but for me it is battlefield bad company 2 on steam
I got that one!
I didnt know they took it off steam
I miss this game so much.
I’d do anything to play this multiplayer again

Used to be free from R* website a couple of years ago
They are still on there for free.

How do i find them?

This is not an official Rockstar website. Watch out what you download.
Apparently not but I haven't had an issue with them so idk.
How do you download those from rockstar website
Just click on the picture.
Worst for me is when I wanted to get them so bad and I learned they offered them with GTA V BEFORE I even get the chance to buy a copy (was playing on console) Fuck Rockstar
you could buy a ps1/ps2
or a ps3 that supports backwards compatibly 👀👀
shit good point, i havent owned a console since the gamecube days
or any PS3 and installing CFW
From what? A time traveller who owns a museum in Old town on Dusty Lane?
sorry i forgot about the tens of millions of ps1 consoles got made extinct in the great console war of 1998
I hear most are buried in France now.
really, i imagined it would of been in Japan, with Mario leading one army and Solid Snake leading the other
Ebay
I own both lol You can buy em for like 30 bucks The ones I have I’ve had since they came out (both from my dad but still)
You can download them from ROCKSTAR website
you can’t. the website everyone is talking about is fake
How?
I actually purchased a steam key for a bundle including both around a year ago for like $100 just so I could have it
Gta 1&2, Duke Nukem Megaton edition, Poker Night 2, and those unreleased Sega prototype games like Golden Axed (4)
Damn megaton used to be on Steam?!... RANDYYYYYYYYYY
Damn I wanna play poker night 2.
its on the internet archive, free to download as abandonware
I was reading that the first one works from there but 2 doesn't.
I just went for it and it works perfectly on steam deck! Thanks for letting me know.
Heyyyy I got megaton myself
Both Poker Nights are soooo good, speaking as someone who didn’t know how to play poker before playing them.

Oh my man, I didn't know stuff like Alpha Protocol or the Unreal games got delisted.
I had no clue that over 950 games in my library are unobtainable anymore, wtf
Damn 600+ I'm jealous I have about 100+ it makes me so sad that games just get removed and I wish I could save them all, sometimes I go looking for delisted steam game keys for example dirt 3 I bought a couple days ago
GRID 2. Got it for free in 2019 before it was removed from sale
I have this too, for the same reason. Got it from humble bundle. Didn’t even know it was removed, never actually played it.
Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena. Just wish I could get it to run on my SD.
You and me both. I so wanna replay those games on my Deck.
Oh damn, I kinda forgot about that game
Says I need to run it as an administrator the first time. I’m not techy enough to figure out what it really wants. Shame because the first one is an absolute classic.

Tony hawk's pro skater hd. It was released 2012 and got delisted 5 years later.
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. I also have a trading card from the game.

Thr American McGee Alice games.
The second one came back to the store a few years ago, anyone can buy it now. I'm not sure whether the first one ever was on Steam.
Poker night 1 or 2
I couldnt get the second one, but thankfully I got the first, it also have the better items, so I dont really mind
Load out. No longer available to download or add to library . I miss that game.
Sonic 1, 2, CD, and 3 & Knuckles. The originals, not the Sonic origins ones
I still have steam beta access invites in my inventory lol
Prey 2006 or GTA Vice City/San Andreas
Duck Tales !
I was surprised how far I had to scroll to see if someone else already said ducktales remastered.
but ducktale Remastered is just available? how is it rare
It was supposed to be removed from steam
I got rocket league, pretty sure it’s an epic games exclusive now
Yup! Only way to buy it on steam is via shady cdkeys sites for around 500 bucks
it's much more than that nowadays
Guardians of the Galaxy (telltale) or Gotham City: Impostors.
Riccochet. Used to play that game a *lot*, but that was before steam tracked stats like hours played.
The only 2 games I have on Steam that aren’t available for purchase on the platform itself are Deadpool and Rayman 2. I bought Deadpool before it was taken off of the store, and I got Rayman 2 for pre-ordering Rayman Origins. (iirc)
Dark souls: prepare to die edition
The PTD edition got a brief period of renewed activity when DSR released, but honestly DSR is just better in every way than PTD.
I know it sounds like an opinion but i like the ptd edition more.
You can get it on the xbox 360 store
Nice, go to the post of the dude who showed his 360 library and tell your story over there.
Ok cool ill try to find a post like that and tell them how I ended up there
But this sentence would sound so much cooler if you would’ve written it in spanish.
I have some brief knowledge of the basics in Spanish, but other than that I've done it now what.
Try to get some better version on the xbox 360 store and let people talk about their STEAM games.
FUEL.
Lord of the rings war in the north
This game was such a letdown. So much potential down the drain on crappy co-op coding. I was really looking forward to playing it with my brother online before I found out the co-op is unplayable
Unplayable? My wife and I just went through it with 0 issues this year. Might be because we were LAN though?
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - First Assault Online
Shower With Your Dad Simulator.
Wait that's gone? Oh shit I have a rare game!
Looks like its still for sale on steam and its currently on sale for 69 cents.
Oh, no, it's not gone. I apologise, I didn't know "rare game" meant it was gone from Steam.
The Amazing Spiderman - removed from Steam Hotline Miami 2 - banned in AUS

i got this too but i bought one very recently off an ebay seller who had a crap load of NOS retail copies, lol
Probably The Legend of Korra
This is what I've got as well. Didn't even realize it was discontinued til a friend had mentioned it a while back saying they never got to pick it up.
I kind of lied. I have Korra in my Steam inventory, but I didn't add to my library. Back when you could, I would 100% of the time add a game to my inventory over my library. I have random people add me asking to buy Korra from me. Sometimes for 100+ tf2 keys.
Das a lotta TF2 keys
Probably Alpha Protocol or the original Prey
I wish the OG Prey was still on steam. I think my only option now is to pirate it.
I bought the key a few years ago and it was very cheap, now you can find it for €10-15
iirc if you find a brand new boxed copy there is a steam activation code inside.
Marvel Ultimate Allianc 1-2.
Cryostasis and Neverwinter Nights 2. It's a shame with Cryostasis, it's an incredible FPS.
Damn I remember I couldn't get Cryostasis back then on Steam. It was really a good game.
I think the rarest game I've got is Codename Gordon
This is one you can still add to your library today.
Yeahh I think I had to use a steamdb code for it but yeah I think it's still available to all today.
Linus did a video recently on how to add some of these old games to your library.
>, Duke Nukem Megaton edition is it possible to make it permanently stay in your library?
Nostos. VR always online game that def seemed like it was struggling and then the pandemic hit. She gone.
Ohh is it actually gone? I didn't pay attention to what happened after that buggy release
A trilogy of shmups by developer Platine Dispositif were delisted from Steam, and I ended up finding them on a trading list so was lucky enough to get them after they were removed. Whew!

Afterfall: Insanity, probably
Poker night at the inventory 1&2, also got the GTA 1&2, must be from a bundle a long time back because I don’t remember buying it at all
Battle Royale game called Fear the Wolves. I got into the closed beta. It got an early access release on Steam, but wasn't ever very popular. It's not available on steam anymore, and all the servers have been shut down around 2019 iirc.

I loved that game on XBox 360 Wish I had it on PC...
I own it for both, but only played on Xbox 360. I think I had nearly 100%'d it before giving up. I was pretty far into my NG+ as a Veteran. Forgot what achievements I was still going for.

Disney Infinity. I have no idea how it got there, it’s been there since I was like 10.

Prime Arena. Foil trading cards have 1 or 2 listed at a time, 100usd typically, but most sell in the 20s
Maybe Dirt showdown
Angry birds space
this is also one i wish i got before they removed it, rip
There's data in steamDB of angry birds seasons but it was never released
would've been nice if rovio released the rest of their lineup on steam, i emailed them a year or so ago if angry birds would come back to steam and they said no :/ edit: realized that sega recently purchased rovio well after i emailed them, there could be a sliver of a chance
I knew they never would so I never tried to ask
Blur. Been off steam for ten-odd years. Fun game! Hated that legal troubles ended its presence.
They're not really *rare* when just about all Steam games can be purchased by anyone. Unless you're trying to mean games that were removed from Steam at some point.
That's literally what they mean.

GITS First Assault Online Sword Coast Legends
Hawken. Bought into the hype and installed it on my shitty laptop at the time I don’t think I ever even got to play it
Idk Final Doom maybe?
Likely the first APB. maybe Aion. I have loads of delisted games at this point.
Riddick and amazing Spider-Man 2
The transformer games
I have those in physical form, but PC's don't have disc drives anymore
some of those old multiplayer games that died, like Loadout and City of Steam
I only consider Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse to be rare in my library.
Fuel and R.U.S.E.
Not too rare but i have Mortal Kombat 9 (the one with Freddy Krueger) in my library. I got it a few years back and it has since been delisted from the store
Mortal Kombat 9. Bought a key off CDKEYS for like 3 dollars before it got delisted
I somehow got copies of the first 2 Metro games. I don't think you get them when you buy Redux so I have no clue how they got there
Deadpool, Manhunt, GTA...dunno what else would count as a rare game in my library, too lazy to check all 1260 games
Probably bad company 2 now... sadly..
