Sony has started removing YouTube videos showing Concord running on fan-made custom servers, raising new questions about how far the company will go to shut down the community revival.

    I knew someone that was sponsored to promote Concord, and remember Sony later asking to them to remove the sponsored video citing some contract terms they had. Sony really wants this failure of a game to be buried deep down.

Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from intentionally 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.
