What?!?! they've already shut those down? 4years online service? that is fucking pathetic. Ain't even a BFME3 out, and I'll be honest.. out of EA other shit RTS CNC efforts, BFME2 was pretty damn good and still seems to have the community.

.. I suppose there is always the other online gaming community method, still poor show from EA to kill what is one of their better RTS games.

Also I remember NFS Underground 2 online being killed in 2007, and look at the diabolical shitting NFS garbage that came out after.. what a fucking joke.

Must really suck to be a console game though, honestly it should just be mandatory for publishers to put online service date expiry on the box
(I mean your virtual non-refundable/non-sell able purchase)

...especially for games with NO LAN support.
