So I just heard that 360 and PS3 servers will be going down at the end of the year.
What does this mean for classic games?
I always have played WoW, blacks ops, and bo2 zombies on 360 or ps3.
Will these no longer be supported? I know the xbox1 is compatible with these games, but will they even have servers anymore?
I literally just heard about this, any info would be appreciated

With a shitty question you get a shitty response.
Also, you are on the worst board on 4chan, what did you expect?

how is it a shitty question?
Some reverse compatible games have had online support

Source?
I wasn't even aware PS3 gaming depended on servers.

I heard about it through people online, but there a bunch of articles online about it
I guess its a push for people to buy new systems
I'm just not sure if older games will still receive support or not
>considering even the WaW zombies still have 5000+ people playing I was hoping so

Playstation Home is just that retarded hub and it was shut down ages ago.
>>330051483
But there have been older games that had online support on next gen systems
If I remember correctly, one of the earlier FIFAs was still supported from xbox original to 360 (or 360 to 1)
Or there was a server for dreamcast PSO that was up until like 2009
>although I think it was fan created+supported
I'm just looking for more information on the subject, or if anyone has heard anything at all
>>330050154
>buying online-only games that could be played alone
>even buying an IBMPC that only play games if connected to internet, and only software/games the computer assemblage commisioner allows you to run.

I had heard it was going to be similar to what happened to the psp
>where you can still play online but no longer download expansions and the support drops to nothing and everyone eventually stops playing its so shitty
>>330051672

Do you even know what Playstation Home is?
>>330052913
You have to be one of the most uninformed people holy fuck. Are you my grandad or are you 12?
>>330053048
Not really.
I played ps3 in college but it was my roommates
I picked up a xbox360 when I left for like 50 bucks and that's what I play now
But I had heard they were both more or less in the same boat from a guy online while playing mob of the dead
I don't really play that many video games, hence not knowing anything and being called a newfag/underage about 30 times in this thread despite being in my late 20s
I also was hoping to not have to rebuy all this shit for ps3, but looks like that's whats going to have to happen
>>330053474
So I guess your objective is to just keep the thread bumped with misinformation.

I'm a casual gamer. I only play maybe 1 or 2 hours a week
Haven't been seriously invested in a game since snes
>>330053757
You ysound more like you're butthurt the PS3 is outliving the Wii U.
That's the only thing that can explain this desperate spread if misinformation.
>>330053757
Strange then coming to a board deticated to the topic. Each to his own I guess. If you want information dont come here, honestly go to reddit or google.
>>330053630
no
I think its now been established that ps3 is going to remain up
All I'm waiting for now is information of the xbox360 servers, then the thread can die
I know theres actually a problem on this one, because people buying xboxgold for a year have been informed service will be dropped in 9 months
>>330049939
>So I just heard that 360 and PS3 servers will be going down at the end of the year.
are you pretending to be retarded?
>>330053903
>strange, coming to a board dedicated to the topic, while looking for information on said topic
do you realize how retarded that sounds?
>>330053848
>wiiU
All ive been talking about is Zombies
I don't even think they release zombies games on Nintendo systems
I wish I had bought a ps3 (if anyone can actually confirm that xbox360 support is dropping)
Why don't you ask them yourself? You know, instead of spending an hour here sitting on your thumbs.
>>330054659
That's actually a pretty good point
I should just call xbox support and ask
