Microsoft shutting down servers - hellsing293 - 05-16-2006
microsoft is shutting down it's servers for all it's cd games. i have heard this will happen on June 19th. Damn Bill Gatesmad: . can't spend a few thousands to keep one of your games online? have about 5 billion more to back it up. People are still trying to be able to play these games after the zone shuts down. If anyone plays Age of Empires II sign up for this site and try to help aoe survive after the zone http://www.aoezone.com/forum/index.php. say hellsing293 refered you

Yeah, if you are talking about MSN Games or the Zone... I heard about this. I used to hack the shit out of Zone back in the day (1-2 years ago, don't want to make myself sound that old). Coded some of my own, used some of my friends during the time I still played some CD games online that I played using Zone.
Stopped playing the Microsoft CD games nearly a year ago, but it used to be fun. Stupid cheap Microsoft, never made any good games and cutting costs as usual.

no good games? microsoft only made xbox and xbox360. and for computer they made the age of empires series which is kick ass awesome and has many people spending day and night trying to get good servers up by the time they shut the zone down.

[FONT="]Not counting console games, and for every PC hit they had (such as AOE), there came 6-7 flops at least. If you look at all Microsoft PC games in general, they were never close to being as good as their competition in the market.[/FONT]
