Mister Pink Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 It’s no surprise that it’s not a good idea for companies to continue to pour effort and money into titles that are relatively not that popular. EA has got lots of servers, and they want to offer their servers to the majority of gamers, who play the most popular EA games. I don’t count it against em at all. But if you head to your gaming rig of choice once a day, or even once a week and play one of these titles online, you may not have warm fuzzy feeling for EA right now. Here’s the list of games EA’s servers will no longer be supporting, along with the date they will no longer be supported. December 31, 2010 The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth for PC The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II for PC The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II, The Rise of the Witch-king for PC January 11, 2011 The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth for PC The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II for PC The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II, The Rise of the Witch-king for PC January 17, 2011 The Sims Carnival February 8, 2011 FIFA 07 for Xbox 360 FIFA 08 for PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii FIFA 09 for PC, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii FIFA 09 Ultimate Team for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 FIFA Street 3 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 EA SPORTS FIFA Manager 10 for PC EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 3 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 Madden 09 for PlayStation Portable (all regions), PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii Madden 10 for PlayStation Portable (all regions), PlayStation 2 and Wii NBA LIVE 08 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NBA LIVE 09 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii NCAA Basketball 08 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NCAA Basketball 09 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NCAA Football 07 for Xbox 360 NCAA Football 08 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NCAA Football 09 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NCAA Football 10 for PlayStation 2 NFL Head Coach 09 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NHL 08 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 NHL 09 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 09 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 UEFA EURO 2008 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 2010 FIFA World Cup for PlayStation Portable and Wii 2010 FIFA World Cup Demo for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 March 1, 2011 Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 09 for Wii Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467612-heads-up-ea-shutting-down-25-servers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakorama Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 And nothing of value was lost. They're just trying to get people to buy the newest versions of their sport games, obviously.

papanesta Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 yay! more servers for Bad Company 2! Would be nice, even if they're just used to fix the bloody stat retrieval. I'd say it was worrying for the future, but there isn't a single game on that list I'm close to caring about, so perhaps it isn't.

Colanbarry Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Fair enough for the old sports games but i can't believe they pulled the servers for BFME.

baptiste Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 KINDA sad about Battle for Middle Earth. But oh well. I'd be lying if I said I play it regularly, but its just one of those games.

OysterBarron Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 So not only do people who buy pre-owned now have to pay for online they run the risk of there servers getting shutdown at any point! TBH i wouldnt miss EA servers if they all went down there a laggy disconnecting mess! the amount of time i hear my friends screaming on fifa because EA servers has magically disconected them during a game! I remember when i first played MOH airborne online even though they had sent me a e-mail saying welcome to MOHA EA servers said they wernt online even though my friend from down the road was playing online fine.
