“Imagine you buy a pinball machine, and years later, you enter your den to go play it, only to discover that all the paddles are missing, the pinball and bumpers are gone, and the monitor that proudly displayed your unassailable high score is removed”. As reported by Polygon, that’s an argument put forth by a new lawsuit against Ubisoft, filed by two Californian players of The Crew. They’re suing the company in a proposed class action lawsuit over shutting down the racing game’s servers, rendering it unplayable.
Ubisoft pulled the ol’ snippy Johnson on The Crew’s server wires back in March, effectively killing the online-only game. The following month, it started disappearing from owner’s Ubisoft Connect libraries. In response, YouTuber Ross Scott started a Stop Killing Games initiative, petitioning France’s Directorate General For Competition, Consumer Affairs And Fraud Protection (DGCCRF) to investigate.
I feel like Ubisoft is like a European EA. But somehow worse.
“Why is EA the most hated American game company? Because Ubisoft is based in France.”

Wow, why the hate sir?
The French are renowned for their cuisine, but Ubisoft doesn’t know how to cook.
I agree about Ubisoft. But them being French has nothing to do about why they are a terrible company (nowadays). I juste wanted to point that.
Comedy. English “hate” on the French much like the scandinavians “hate” on each other
Not just the english
Have you smelled a Frenchman?
Only thing that smells bad around here is you.
leave it to the French to not know a joke when they see one
I’m not French?
Because they don’t know any French people.
