Marvel's Avengers goes on sale one last time before being delisted forever

pcgamer.com:

At the start of the year, Crystal Dynamics announced that Marvel's Avengers would be delisted. Following a release that publisher Square Enix called «disappointing», the live-service spandex-em-up was put on life support, with a final update in March and a subsequent patch in April. As of September 30 it won't be available to buy on digital storefronts, but until then it's on sale on Steam for 90% off.

It's basically the same thing you get in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy only with writing that isn't quite as snappy, and every now and then you need to remember to open the inventory and hold down Q to automatically equip all the best gear so you don't end up underleveled. On the up side, it comes with all the DLC and most of the cosmetics are unlocked so you can dress the Hulk as a Prohibition-era gangster or an alien gladiator as the mood strikes you.
