GameGuide » Blog Archive » EA to Shut Down Online Game Services
In an interesting, yet some what expected move, EA will be shutting down its online servers for many of its ‘older’ titles.
Below is a list of games and a update from the EA website. The following is an important update regarding online service for some older EA titles.
Servers for the games listed below will be shut down on the indicated dates. You may continue to play the games online up until these dates, but certain community programs may begin to close down prior to the shutdown dates.
All of us at EA would like to thank you for your valued participation in our online gaming community and hope that your enthusiasm for these games extends to our current lineup and beyond.
If you have further questions about your account or the shut down of these services, please visit http://support.ea.com.
