    Default Goodbye gamespy...

    Goodbye, And Thank You From The GameSpy Team

    GameSpy, as we know it, began in 1999. Today, 14 years later, it has reached the end of the road. We had a good run, and we want to sincerely thank all of you for reading and joining in discussions with us. It's been fantastic.

    At least I can go to IGN for fair and impartial reviews.

    Can this please mean that installations of older games can now stop asking me if I want to install GameSpy Arcade?

    But GameSpy Arcade was a useful and helpful piece of software that everybody needed.

    I wonder if this means GameSpy will stop spamming my oldest email address...

    If your sarcasm meter don't work, then keep silence. Person.


    Anyway, I have not used gamespy or anything like it for years. IGN if anything.

    If you dont keep relevance in this business, you are out, no great loss.

    Awkward moment when the last three TW games require Steam.

    The **** is gamespy? I just know it was referenced every time I started Rome Total War.

    Not sure if it already happened, but this means no more multiplayer for M2.

    It also means no more topics in the mp forum titled "login error" "invalid id"

    First time I ever played a video game was 2004 and the first time I played a PC game was 2009 so I don't have much space to fit in Gamespy into any of my gaming accomplishments.

    I vaguely remember having to use Gamespy Arcade back in the early 2000s. As for the website, I stopped using it for reviews around the same time.

    Ah, you young'uns. You have no idea what a godsend programs like Gamespy 3D and the All Seeing Eye were back in the no-integrated-server-browser-era.
    Some day I'll actually write all the reviews I keep promising...
