How long will the online servers stay alive?

Though to be completely fair, I do kind of like the show.

Lolz! Did you ever watch MxC? Waaaaaay better!

So just to update... 2 Phantom Eliminator matches right now. mannjon in an EMPTY RACE LOBBY. If any server stays open it will be the F'in Eliminator lobby and nothing else. I stand by my original remark... if you want the servers to stay up RACE.

not sure about phantom with a dodgy dpad but I'll give it a shot

few days ago, cipher and I were racing with dodgy pads in a room, and were cannon fodder for noobs... highly embarrassing but fun all the same hehe


7 in a room and i'm hosting, jump in

I just make sure I'm drunk whenever I get online........ good challenge, bad hangover.

...and many thanks to Terra, Kronic, Hiro, et all for a 6 player Flash Tournament!!!!! Online lives!!!!

This does bring up a point I'd like to make. More and more developers these days are including some type of online requirement for trophies and such. It is just plain wrong to do that to gamers. I hate this trend because unless you buy the game new and start with the online campaign, you'll likely miss a few trophies that are otherwise impossible to get. Imagine trying to get Bling Brigade right now for example. It is rare enough to have 8 players stay for one whole race, let alone 8 players that have beat the campaign.

Then on top of that, there is no indefinite time that the servers stay online. There are so many games I have where I have earned just about every trophy except the one that forces you to grind it out in online play and most of those games don't have any open servers.
