It definitely feels that way at times. The discounted cars are not a bad thing, but it's a sign that the game might be reaching its final days. It does seem Gameloft will likely keep the game alive as long as people keep giving them money.

I've played it for 4 years on and off and so far I have 152 cars. Never gave them a cent either. It was mainly because if I ever got banned for no reason after paying them my hard-earned money, I would be most upset.

So when they pull the plug on Asphalt 8 someday, I won't feel too bad about it. I will miss the game and have memories of the fun times it brought, though.

Like you, I also like to use the much-forgotten cars like the Fenyr and the Egoista for example. They still compete very well in skilled hands and can take down a Vulcan or two at times. Heck, my Gallardo has brought me to the Champion League once.

I just like to have fun when I play, it's a game after all. And when I look back at all the Events I've beaten and all the cars and bikes I own, I feel proud. Especially after playing for free all these years!
