sooooooooooooooooooooo it turns out that
No One Lives Forever, its sequel, and Contract JACK are... basically entirely unavailable for purchase.
HOOOWEEVERRRRRrrrrrr
it is possible apparently to get fully (mostly, there are some crashes and bugs) functional versions of all three, for free, that work on Windows XP upwards to Windows 10.

@theoutrider oh my GOD
NMH is genius
@theoutrider I just realised something as well. in NMH the part time jobs Travis has to do to make up cash are literally little trashy minigames he does for a mercifully very brief period of time. They're under high pressure, very difficult, and often frustrating (in my opinion, at least in the first one) but over mercifully quickly so you can get back to the gratuitous violence...
...the normal jobs are a frantic frustrating means to an end so he can get back to murder. omg.
