Re: MasterREAVer - that is unfortunately the standard EA practice - buy it annually or be SOL.

Screw EA and screw their yearly franchises.. I wish everyone would stop buying these stupid things. It's the same exact game as last year with updated stats on the players.. ARGH..

Are people still playing these games? It's 1 thing for EA to shut them down, screwing customers over but if noone is playing, that's an indication that you'd be wasting your time with the game.

I'm not sure why they are shutting these sites down and I question both the legality and ethics of doing so. I mean the packaging says online play...

@required - if you read the EULA in the manual (perhaps it is in-game as well) it clearly states that online support is provided guaranteed for 1 year from published release date. So when I got Madden '07 PSP last year it said that the site isn't guaranteed to work after August 1st '07 (or somewhere thereabouts)

txa1265, I understand what you are saying but in order to read this disclaimer you need to literally/fiscally buy the li(n)e that is on the outside of the packaging.
I think this is the sort of illegal thing that is often referred to as "bait and switch". Then again I'm no lawyer.
