EA Sports pulling the plug on old game servers

Still playing old EA Sports titles? The publisher is sending you a message: time to move on and play a new game (hopefully theirs). At least if you’re playing online, that is. Starting February 2nd, 2010, online services for older games, including Madden 09 are to be taken down.
