Today's the #StopKillingGames promotion day planned by the volunteers! I encourage people to make a post with that hashtag. I'm just following orders though, it's safe to label me as a boomer in regards to social media. https://t.co/0yjIKswZn3

The government should update consumer law to prohibit publishers from disabling video games (and related game assets / features) they have already sold without recourse for customers to retain or repa...

Just a heads up, volunteers for SKG want as many people as possible to make a post on Twitter (or Blue Sky) about the initiative on July 2nd with the hashtag #stopkillinggames to try and surge things. I'll post then too.

To clarify, there's no risk of the initiative being invalidated if someone spoofs a signature, it just won't count towards it. It's still a crime, but the only penalty would be on the person doing it, not the initiative. It DOES mean as many legit signatures as possible helps.

The VGHF director commented on games moving to digital. His views are similar to mine in that I don't think this is the core problem, it's more a symptom of a larger one. I'm amazed at him thinking th...

La campagne Stop Killing Games, menée par Ross « AccursedFarm » Scott, a parcouru un sacré chemin depuis avril 2024. Ce qui n’était au départ qu’une réaction de colère à la fermeture de The Crew par Ubisoft est devenu un combat bien plus vaste sur le droit des éditeurs à rendre des jeux achetés totalement inutilisables une fois le support officiel abandonné. Depuis, l’initiative a grandi jusqu’à devenir une pétition européenne cherchant à obtenir une protection juridique pour les consommateurs face à ce type de pratique. Désormais, après avoir largement dépassé le million de signatures, Scott a porté le dossier devant le Parlement européen, et les premiers retours semblent nettement plus encourageants que beaucoup ne l’auraient imaginé.   Lors de l’audition publique d’hier, les organisateurs… Read More...

The Stop Killing Games campaign led by Ross “AccursedFarm” Scott has come a long way since April 2024. What began as a furious response to Ubisoft shutting down The Crew has turned into a much larger fight over whether publishers should be allowed to render purchased games completely unusable once official support ends. Since then, the initiative has grown into a European petition aimed at securing legal protection for consumers against exactly that practice. Now, after comfortably passing the one-million-signature mark, Scott has taken the issue to the European Parliament, and by the sound of it, the response was far more encouraging than many expected.   During yesterday’s public hearing, the campaign’s organizers had to answer a wide range of questions from Members of the… Read more...

A Stop Killing Games kampány, amelyet Ross „AccursedFarm” Scott indított el, hosszú utat járt be 2024 áprilisa óta. Az egész eredetileg a Ubisoft által leállított The Crew körül robbant be, amikor sok játékosnál végleg elszakadt a cérna attól, hogy egy megvásárolt játék egyszer csak használhatatlanná válhat, mert a kiadó úgy dönt, hogy lelövi a szervereket. Azóta a kezdeményezés jócskán kinőtte magát, és európai petícióként próbál jogi védelmet szerezni a fogyasztóknak az ilyen gyakorlatokkal szemben. Most pedig, hogy már bőven egymillió fölé ment az aláírások száma, Scott az Európai Parlamentben is megszólalhatott, ráadásul a visszajelzések alapján nem is rossz eredménnyel.   A tegnapi nyilvános meghallgatáson a kampány szervezőinek számos kérdésre kellett válaszolniuk az EP-képviselők részéről, és ezek a kérdések kifejezetten komoly érdeklődést mutattak a javaslat jogi,… Olvasd tovább...
