What rights?
You're buying a license to play a game. Rockstar is not obligated to ensure it's available to you indefinitely.
"What!? You don't like the erosion of ownership rights? You're an asshole!" - you.
They're trying to argue that an EULA isn't binding because they can't sign away their rights, and thats legally incorrect in this case.
Recognizing reality is different than endorsing it.
Nuance is the friend of truth. Some parts of EULAs may not be binding if they cross a line, dependent on what country's laws apply and how the judge happens to rule in court.
