There used to be a day that when you bought a multitap and four controllers, as along as your console ran, you could play your games in co-op forever. However, with online co-op being reliant on servers, it is only a matter of time until they are turned off. September 24th is that day for several Ubisoft titles.
Amongst the fallen include:
PC Rainbow 6 – Raven Shield
PC Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
Xbox 360 Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter 2
PS3 Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter 2
Mac Splinter Cell Conviction
PS3 Splinter Cell Double Agent
Xbox 360 Call of Juarez 3:The Cartel
PS3 HAWX II
Xbox 360 HAWX II
This means that of 24th September all online elements of these games will no longer work including any co-op. This is a sad fact of life in modern gaming were you sometimes feel like you are only renting the games that you own, but at least you have a few weeks left to play the above. So why not arrange a meet up to play one of these classic games?
