A petition for all you guys to sign
« on: 23-02-2012, 23:02:53 »
I have created a petition to EA to make Battlefield 1942 either free to play or available to buy via digital download.  The game is a classic that few can experience because of the current situation.

What is the current situation?

Have they stopped producing it or something?


This petition seems a bit strange considering it's not exactly hard to find a new copy of it... :-\

Well it seems to me that they don't sell it in regular stores (even over the internet) like walmart or such.  All that is left is individual sellers with a handful of copies at ebay and amazon.  So yeah, they pretty much aren't really selling it themselves.  Having said that, a digital copy of the game would make it possible for folks to buy it again fairly easily.

Must be old stock I keep seeing.

Signed it, but I have little doubt it'll get re-released as a budget game sooner or later.


I went to buy Stalker:COP the other day and saw a copy of BF 1942:Complete, it was sitting near a couple of copies of Planescape:Torment.

The funny part was the price...they only wanted 20 bucks for Stalker, yet they wanted 30 for Planescape (I didn't happen to notice what BF42 was worth)... :)
