Is Shadowrun still active?

My firend went to GAME to trade in Shadowrun. They said that they couldn't give him much for it as the Shadowrun servers were closing soon. Has this actually happened yet or is it going to happen?

Thanks for the help.

I hope they don't shut them down. I love that game.

The thing is, MS doesn't actually close their servers for games. This is why we pay for XBL. Go to ANY original Xbox game you own and try play online. The servers will still be there but that doesn't mean people will be playing.Quintinius

Hmmm, I didn't know that...that's pretty interesting.

Not true. EA eventually persuaded Microsoft to let them control more of the online components in their games. They've even shut down the online functionaility of some titles on Xbox. They're even planning to take Xbox 360 titles off at some point.

That actually makes me feel much better about the $50 a year fee

Then that's just one more thing to pile on top of the list of reasons to hate EA. Anyway, take what I said but just with the exception of EA.

Im going dissregard everything you both said.. The only games Microsoft controlls are games that are made by Microsoft.. The Devloper and publisher controlls the servers... Ubisoft like never takes down servers but game like Timesplitters they do shut down servers.. EA shut down sports tittles after 2 years and there shooters stay up for as long as ppl play them...

While I respect your choice to pay the $50BKS, it's still not worth it for me becuase 95% of my 360 games are played off-line. But for those who want that feature, it's a bonus.:)
