Planetside 1 to be shut down on July 1

I'm not sure what you guys would think of this, but I've played Planetside 2 since the beta and picked up the first game when it first went free to play. It's a far cry from what PS2 became with way more variety of vehicles and cool factional differences. Hopefully the game spikes in activity before it officially dies off. PlanetsideForever is trying to at least preserve the game and they seem to be able to do account creation and character creation so far.

I can say that PS 1 has a special place in my memory.

 

I hope there will be a bit more people everyday now, but not to play and be generally sad about it shutting down, but to get the message about PSForever.
