"developers would be forced to choose between keeping it running indefinitely..." etc.

PRIME CASE for @[email protected]! Several Kingdom Hearts titles will be wiped from Nintendo's cloud service. People paid for these, yet in one year they will be entirely gone. Only "compensation" is a discount, if you wish to buy the games again.

Stop Killing Games: The fight over who owns the games you buy

Stop Killing Games is challenging the idea publishers can shut down a game without making sure it's still playable.

Last night the secret meeting between industry lobbyists, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot and the EU Commission took place. This is a test for democracy! We now have to wait to see whether the word of 1 CEO means more to politicians than the request of 1.294.188 EU citizens.
