EA Dropping Server Support For Several Older Games
To lessen the stress on its network and clear new space for the fall lineup of games, EA is taking the multiplayer support for several older games offline.
Not a lot of surprises on the lists below – I can't say I've been invited to play any of these titles for quite some time. Here are the dates you can kiss your online support goodbye:

- Army of Two (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360)
- Army of Two Demo (Xbox 360)

If you still play these games, it's time to get in your last few rounds of multiplayer before they retire to the dustbin of history.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
