Jeez already shutting down Madden 2009 *edit* just realized this is not the 360 version**, they are getting a little pushy there! Barely any heads up either. Glad Merc 2 is only the PC version, I still need some online achievements for it.

No point in keeping a server up for 10 people, I suppose.

Well, ain't that a bitch.
They don't think about the new gamers, that can't afford the new games. They get the older games for a cheaper price. It's a major let down when they buy it, and can't play online.
