Commander Shepard Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 http://gamepolitics.com/2011/01/18/activision-ps3-black-ops-player-shutting-down-psn-servers-option http://www.vg247.com/2011/01/19/activision-may-close-playstation-network-black-ops-servers/ Apparently an Activison employee is suggesting to consider shutting down Black Ops PSN servers over on-going network connectivity and customer complaints. Said employee suggests allowing customers to return their copy for a sealed copy to return to stores, exchange the game for the same game on a different platform (PC/360), or allowing the customer to swap out the value of the game for a game of equal/lesser value on the PS3.

deanb Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Just to point out what has been put up in a few places: Customer Service rep =/= Activsion. Though should Activsion actually be trying to leverage this action for the PS3 COD titles I would be in no doubt it's an attempt to strong arm Sony into making a similar deal that Activsion have struck up with MS for COD. Though of course it's a bit of a gamble. The COD games are some of 360's best selling, but while they've done well on PS3 I have a feeling Sony wouldn't be too badly hurt should Activsion pull COD off PS3.
