GTA6 is presumably a timed exclusive, so why ignore other timed console exclusives like... FFXVI, FF7 Remake, God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West, Stellar Blade, Ghost of Tsushima, Death Stranding 2, Spider-Man 2, Rise of the Ronin, etc.?

And what about Astro Bot, Demon's Souls, Ghost of Yotei, Gran Turismo 7, Saros, Sons of Sparta, ...?

Or anything by Nintendo?

Looks to back catalogue since ZX Spectrum, Amiga and all the other systems, available on PC.
Pretty much this. Everything is a timed exclusive and eventually available on PC through emulation etc.

That being said, it's still nice to be able to easily run something like Demon's Souls, Fable 2/3, or the latest Mario/Zelda/Metroid/Pokémon/Fire Emblem/Animal Crossing/etc. without having to mess with emulation.

The games that really seem to have vanished into the sands of time are MMOs with no available private server. Though I still hope to be able to play DC Universe Online, Wildstar, etc. someday.
