GTA Vice City Taken off Steam?

Same happened with Hitman: Contracts if I remember rightly (except that never even made it to Steam). Shame.
Edit: Just fully read the article and it mentions the Hitman case, ah well!

SO they took the game off because sony music is having a bitchfit about one song (a crappy song nonetheless)?

Michael Jackson was alive when the game was released. Sony is doing a lot worse than it was before and since he is now dead, they probably wanted some ridiculous amount to license it again.

It's much easier and cheaper for Rockstar to just update the game and remove the song.

Alive, dead, zombie, alien, doesn't matter to me. Still a crappy song to have a bitchfit over

Thanks for the email. Due to some music licensing issues, we’ve had to temporarily remove Vice City PC from digital stores. We’ll make it available again as soon as possible.
Cheers,
Rockstar Games

Like I said over two weeks ago though "We're either getting an unannounced PC update as well or there are some licensing issues that arose in light of them updating it for the mobile devices"
