Electronic Arts has announced that they are going to turn off the servers on a bunch of games next month.  On February 2, 2010, EA will end online support for quite a few titles, across all of the various systems.  Granted, this happens every year but there are some surprisingly "recent" games on this list for server-closure standards, particularly Madden '09 and Facebreaker.  If you happen to be a player (online) of one of the following games, you are on the clock as you have less than a month before EA shuts them off for good.  You can read the full list after the jump.
