EA pulls 49 online titles off of life support, watches them slowly die

Recommended Videos

It’s now time to make a visit and pay your final respects to the elders. Make your piece and say your goodbyes, as Electronic Arts will be pulling the plug on dozens of their online titles come September 1st.

Varied EA titles, mostly sports games marked ’06’, are nearing the end of their online life span. Most of the ’06’ FIFA, Madden, MVP, NASCAR, NBA Live, and NCAA for all consoles and PC will stop supporting online services on September 1, 2007. Some titles from the Need for Speed and Burnout series will see the same fate in November.

This was done to make way for the upcoming ’08’ titles, all of which will be hitting shelves in the coming months.

Hit the jump to see the full list.
