Beginning tomorrow, Electronic Arts will shut down online services for a dozen more games, including FIFA 11 and NBA Jam. In a statement to the company's Services Updates page, EA explained that the decision to retire aging titles is "never easy," but said doing so allows IT staff to focus on keeping online experiences for newer titles at a level that gamers expect.
In addition to FIFA 11 and NBA Jam, EA will turn off online services for The Sims 2, NCAA Football 11, and NHL 11 during January.
The full shutdown schedule is posted below.
