Freeman's Mind Creator Launches Stop Killing Games Campaign Against Publishers That Make Purchased Games Unplayable
• The creator of the popular Half-Life YouTube series "Freeman's Mind" has launched a campaign against publishers that shut down online services for games people have already purchased.
• The campaign is called "Stop Killing Games" and aims to bring legal attention to this industry practice of making purchased games unplayable by shutting down servers.
• The campaign will pursue charges against Ubisoft for shutting down services for The Crew, which had over 12 million players.
• There are also government petitions started in the UK, Canada, and Australia regarding consumer rights for video games.
• If the charges against Ubisoft are successful, it could have a wider impact on the game industry and prevent other publishers from shutting down more games.
