It's even older than that, Sins originally came out in 2008.

I think this article is rather misleading, or the headline is specifically. Before this article was written there was DMC 3 Special Edition, DMC4, DMC 4 Special Edition, and DMC HD Collection.
DMC 3 Special Edition and DMC 4 are the two being removed. DMC 3 SE was a terrible port that barely runs on just about any machine, and DMC 4 is just the inferior version of DMC 4 SE.
DMC 3 is still available in the DMC HD Colleciton, and is actually playable. So Both games are still available in their actually playable form.
I don't think metadata tracking would work with a p2p solution. Why would I want potentially terabytes of metadata for media I will never consume.
In my opinion, musicbrainz is already doing what you want with the big benefit of not being forced to store a full copy of it. If there is metadata missing from musicbrainz, then maybe you can help the community by trying to track it down and then add/update those values in the db.
