107,470 signatures on the UK Stop Killing Games petition. This is good, but still sign it anyway.
Actually that number's going up as I watch it. 107,533 now.

Petition: Prohibit publishers irrevocably disabling video games they have already sold

The government should update consumer law to prohibit publishers from disabling video games (and related game assets / features) they have already sold without recourse for customers to retain or repair them. We seek this as a statutory consumer right.

The petition is moving full steam ahead and only 200k signatures are left to make the cut.

It takes seconds to sign, it changes history forever.

Hey you! You like #Doom? #GZDoom maybe? What do you think would have happened if id Software has been as shitty as today's publishers? Four words: No Doom for you.

So go sign the #ECI to #StopKillingGames

And spread the word too!

The Crew shutting down is what started SKG. I loved that game! It's flawed, but the amount of work that went into recreating a scale model of the WHOLE continental US to drive across impresses me to this day. It was so cool.

It is impossible for me to ever revisit this game.

While you're at it, go sign the #ECI to make video publishers to #StopKillingGames that you legally bought by bricking them beyond repair.

And spread the word too!
