    Same thing happened with chronicles of riddick. The only way to play it is by piracy. Its well worth playing and the graphics still hold up!

      I had the original, Escape from Butcher Bay on Xbox when it came out, but lost it to time. When the PS3 version came out, I bought it immediately. I also just recently picked up an unopened copy of the PC version of the game. Such a great game, but I shouldn’t have to cruise eBay to buy a game that’s not even 2 decades old.
