PSN: Calling All Cars Calling It Quits Online

A new update to Calling All Cars reveals that the online mode will be taken down early next year.

The game, created by David Jaffe's Incognito Entertainment, was one of the first PSN games to become available. It sported some simple-yet-challenging gameplay where you captured crooks and brought them back to the station without losing them. It was also one of the few PSN games to take full advantage of the online abilities on the console.

On the 14th of January 2010 the servers will come down. The game has probably not seen a lot of online action in the past year which is a little dissapointing, but it will still be available and still be playable with local multiplayer.

Now to figure out just what Jaffe's team are actually working on now. Perhaps they'll have a new game out by that time? I'm dreaming, I know.
