News that GOG.com has delisted 29 games this month is a sobering reminder that at any moment the games you own could vanish from your PC game libraries at any time and there's not much you can do about it. Admittedly, GOG's games include titles that many gamers may not have heard about. But history has shown that this happens to well-known titles too and on platforms with millions of users like Steam and Origin. So how is it that something you've legitimately bought can be whipped away in a heartbeat? Don't we have consumer protection laws against that?

The control room falls silent as multiple video streams from live bodycams fill its display monitors. The windowless building, its meter-thick walls baking in the late-afternoon heat, carries no signage, no identifying markers. As the men enter, the control room displays adjust from sunlight to show a near pitch-black corridor with doorways visible to the left. The audio is silent, save for the tread of rubber boots through pooled condensation and the hum of a generator somewhere inside.

That news, plus rumors Battlefield will head back to World War II this year, David Lynch teaches you typing, the ESRB takes less-than-zero action on loot boxes, and a bevy of trailers for Battletech, Heaven's Vault, Vermintide II, and more. This is gaming news for February 26 to March 2. Growing up I remember taking typing classes in school, and then continuing that learning at home with Mario Teaches Typing. I don't think either helped much, and it wasn't until the onset of AIM (rest in peace) that I started hitting my current 100-plus words per minute. Still, I've got a soft spot for those old educational typing tools, which means David Lynch Teaches Typing is the perfect blend of weird and nostalgia.
