I have just found out that X-Men Legends 2 Multi player is back, but for how long?
Very limited functionality still exists for lots of games that use GameSpy. Not everything is shut down yet. Still, online play *should* always still work so long as you have friends that you're willing to share your IP with. You'll still be able to host a game, and when you want a friend to join they just go the the "Join Game" screen and pres the DEL key to join by IP address. They enter your IP and they're in.
That's what I'm doing for the X-Men Legends PC project.
Awsome cant wait for the next build hope you can get it out soon :)
