I was looking through my Steam collection and noticed that several "paid remaster" games were actually given to me for free because I owned their original versions.
Darksiders 1 BioShock Borderlands GOTY Don't get me wrong, it's cool that they did that, but it's definitely not something you'd expect from game publishers. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Some of them are awesome like that. I also bought like one Serious Sam game ages ago when the series was new-ish, and over time they've given me basically every game in the entire series, both normal and remastered, and the VR version, since then. Without me even signing up for them or anything. They just keep appearing in my Steam folder. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's p nice. Looking through my games, you can add the Mafia series to the list.
The PC has also had loads of giveaways more generally. If I just played them (and a good chunk are games I'd want to play otherwise), I'd probably be at it for years (not even counting free games in the future). ... Copied to Clipboard!

And Nintendo, who's online infrastructure can best be summed up with an AOL splash screen.

Those games replace the originals on the Steam store so they probably have the same ID
Thus they remove the original from being purchased so newcomers can only choose the potentially higher price newer version. --- This signature won't be changed until at least one out of Astrograph Sorcerer, Double-Iris Magician, Performapal Monkeyboard or Electrumite is unbanned. 2/15/20 ...

Some companies understand this weird foreign thing known as good will, where treating customers well inspires trust and future patronage.
Others do not. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! ... Copied to Clipboard!
