[EU/UK] Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from destroying older games with kill switches.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures in the EU so that the european parliament will respond to the initiative that then leads to regulation that requires end-of-life plans for games to stay playable.

~~We get shittier big block buster movies

We get higher prices

We made snacks more expensive than gold

We keep increasing the amount of commercials

Why aren't you coming?~~

Edit: replied to wrong message

Assuming you're a fellow USian, this ain't the right thread, friend. I mean I agree that everything is shittier here, but we should be celebrating the sudden surge for the SKG petition.

That said, I'm so happy to see this much support for it. Wish I could sign it myself. Hopefully this is only the first step.

I somehow responded to the wrong post here, actually. It was about AMC being a dick again with now having 25-30 minutes of commercials and trailers before a movie

Ah, gotcha. What a boneheaded decision on their part. They should be incentivising potential moviegoers, not punishing them.
