EA Closing Servers

Okay, I asked this to be put in news but whatever.

"February EA Server Shutdowns Announced; 1000 Online Attempt Incoming
Written Friday, January 01, 2010 by Alan Pettit

EA has announced the servers to be closed this February 2nd, and a few 360 game have been given the axe this time around. If you have any online achievements in these games, you have four weeks to grind them out or lose the chance forever! Here is the list of games with online achievements. (The full list is linked above.)

Facebreaker
Madden 07
Nascar 09 (EU only)
NBA Live 07
NCAA March Madness 07
NHL 07
UEFA Champions League 2006-2007

Now, before anyone asks: as promised many times, x360a will be holding an NBA Live 07 "1000 Online" achievement event at the end of this month before the servers close. The only successful attempt before now was put together by us back on February 25th, 2007 and we have always said that the best time to get another event done would be just before the servers close. That time is obviously now. We will make a bigger post when we have nailed down a date and time.

For now be sure to spread the word and be sure to purchase a copy of the game early off eBay or the second-hand market. You don't want to head to the video store the day of and see it completely rented out!"

I hate EA. If they're making achievements impossible to get, they need to just give them to people. -_-

Yeah,at least they're better than 2K they just shut down their servers without letting anyone know. :no:

:no:

@ Tom if you still need them tomorrow night let me know.I'm currently doing them with my friend(tomorrow) but I don't mind helping you.

I think we should get a fundraiser going to buy up all of the copies on Ebay and distribute the games to players that will definitely show up. There are always 20 or so copies that go unbought in auctions that we could probably get for 5 bucks a pop and that is 20 more people showing up.

We need to certainly do something special to make this happen. I thought the last attempt (before today) was spread pretty well, but was still not even close. We need it to be an event. Maybe even prizes or something.

I'm going to try to go to all my local gamestops and buy all live 07's and give them to people that will help.I'm also going to message a ton off people of MGC.net and see if that will help...........(as you said in another thread.)However I'm not going to do it in till we have a set time and date.

Does that Mean every EA game will no longer be able to get online?
