Microsoft is Shutting Down their Classic Internet Games Service

It has been a good run, but Microsoft has finally decided to shutdown the services  powering their classic multiplayer Microsoft Internet Games. After almost 20 years, Windows users will no longer be able to fire up Internet Spades, Backgammon, or Checkers and get quick game with someone on the other side of the world.
