@holhardy I bet Halo 2 would still be going as well were it not for that thing...
Oh yeah!
Shutting down all online play for xbox original titles. I'm not sure about Halo 2, but by now i'm certain Star Wars: Battlefront 2 would be one of the most played titles on the 360 were online play still available.
" only 5 percent of gamers play past-generation titles on new machines."
That's because 5% of the current-Gen consoles (Including redesigns) are backwards compatible and most of them have less then 5% of their entire catalogue available.
Not a lot of people play older games on new systems because their aren't a lot of options, and very few people would agree to HD remakes, because they'd have to pay for them again, as well as issues like what happened with the Silent Hill collection.
