    Amplitude Online Server Getting Axed

    Sony just let Harmonix know that they are taking down Amplitude's online server on Monday, Feb. 26... permanently. Yep, after Monday you will no longer be able to go online to play the amazing music PS2 sequel to Frequency.

    It's not clear why Sony is axing the game's online support other than it might be part of a routine culling of older games from their servers.

    As word hit the unofficial Amp online community, panic ensued, to be quickly quieted by Harmonix's Sean who promised to try to put together some sort of "online reunion/send-off/Irish funeral for the game" on Sunday, the day before the game's online elements start pushing up daisies.

    Sean is shooting to kick the game wake off about 7 p.m. EST and he hopes to have a bunch of the Harmonix folks on that night so they can have their collective asses handed to them by fans.

    "I think it will be a cool way to see the old girl off."

    If you own the game, or can get your hands on it, and have the PS2 online attachment, then make sure to hit up this one last hurrah for a fantastic and under-appreciated online title.

    Who knows, maybe this is the first step toward seeing the game reappear on the PS3 through the store or a disc.
