EA's decision to shut down servers has gamers on edge! The gaming giant recently announced the closure of Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare servers, but there's a twist. While the PS3 version is set to shut down on April 28, the Xbox 360 version is surprisingly unaffected. But here's where it gets controversial—EA's track record with server shutdowns isn't exactly spotless.
EA has confirmed that only the PS3 servers will close, leaving the game playable on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS4, and PC. However, this doesn't mean Xbox 360 players can breathe easy. The original announcement sparked concern among achievement hunters, as the game boasts an impressive 65 achievements, which take around 40 hours to unlock. And this is the part most people miss—EA has a history of forgetting about Xbox 360 versions during shutdowns, as seen with Need for Speed Rivals.
So, should Xbox 360 players rush to complete the achievements? Well, it's a gamble. While EA hasn't listed the 360 version for shutdown, their oversight in the past raises doubts. It's a race against time, and players are left wondering if EA will pull the plug on the 360 servers sooner than expected.
For those up for the challenge, we've got a comprehensive walkthrough to help you conquer the achievements. But beware, the game is not backward compatible, so dust off those old consoles! Will you take the plunge and attempt the completion? Share your thoughts below, and let's discuss the fate of this beloved Xbox shooter!
