bluethief: However, companies want people to buy the newer versions, so removing the old ones is part of the strategy.
To me, though, it'd seem like a way to net some good PR** by giving away the old version for free. But eh, what does a "mere customer" like me know when compared to the high paid game company execs and such? ;)
(**Plus some of the people who don't want/need the new versions might not buy em just to get the old ones, and some of the ones who buy the game for the new versions might not want the old versions)
bluethief: It's funny that lots of companies have different approaches to this, thought. The worst ones are those that remove the old version, don't add them as a goodie and doesn't even have a special discount for owners of the originals
And iirc some of em (oddly enough) do several of those approaches(different ones for different games).
