Yep their up and running again.

Anyone who thought game disappearing was a good thing, look at the price of SSX and Fifa Street all of a sudden online, dropping fast, when game looked done for the e-tailers you all swore by we're charging £45 for them before.

Well considering FIFA Street is top of the all formats chart, I'd say a lot of people...
