Notice how there's rarely an announcement for these things?

They had one a few months back. I was waiting for samurai jack to go on sale because of it and it never did. They wanted those games to fail it seems like.

Probably less of a desire and more apathy. Money's already spent, and some bean counter mathed out that it would be cheaper to delist them than to keep paying people to manage the accounting and any payout to the devs.

Same thing happened earlier this year with all the Adult Swim published games, and some of the devs impacted (and I think some of the people on Adult Swim's side too) were semi-open about it once any of them knew what was going on.

Bro what the fuck? I wanted to play that Samurai Jack game but I was just waiting for a decent sale (which never fucking happened).

What the fuck WB?! Are you gonna remove those cartoons from your fucking app now?

They've already been removing a ton of the CN and Adult Swim content from the (HBO) Max service.

I know, I meant the rest of them including Samurai Jack (which is currently still on there, but after delisting the game who fuckin knows)

...a wooden sloop suddenly pulls up, and a man shouts out

"Arrrrrr there matey. Have you tried searching one of the repackers?"

Oh another tax write off of already released content.
