While it's sad to see all these games begin to die a slow death, in reality, many of these titles are incredibly old and on last-gen platforms such as Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.

Yet much older games are still playable without functionality loss.

You don't need upgrades to online services. You need to stop locking down games.

Heck, I haven't checked in a couple of years, but I think the Call of Duty servers for the Wii were still up back in 2020...
