EA Shuts You Down

By DeaconBlade • August 3, 2007

Have you ever had a moment when you had no witty comeback and the only thing you can muster is a quick, defiant ”what the hell!”? This is one of those moments. EA released information yesterday about a planned online wipe out for some of their “older” titles. I suppose this really isn’t a surprise now as it’s not the first time. So maybe it’s no big deal to the legions of EA fans.

Here is a list of titles that will have their online ability shut down. Some of these are Xbox 360 titles so you better make it a point to unlock any online Achievements soon. Good thing I’m not playing these particular titles anymore. But which of you still play titles from this list?

[quote comment="47747"]They want to continue to use their own servers because they will start charging for online play in the future.[/quote]

EA Haters have been saying that since the Xbox day and it still has yet to become true.
