EA is shutting down a bunch of online servers because of the Gamespy issue

More On:

More online servers for EA games are being closed down due to Gamespy going bye bye. At the end of June, many old games will have their online capabilities end. EA is evaluating on ways to keep some of their more popular games work after the Gamespy closure, but there's nothing yet to talk about.

Looking at the list, which is available after the break, there are some really good games that, I think, need to have their online options preserved. Two that jump out are Neverwinter Nights and Battlefield 2. Star Wars fans still playing the two Battlefront games will also have their ability to join online games end. 

Here's hoping EA finds a way to keep some of the more popular titles working. Some still have really large communities and it would be a shame to see those disappear.
