With the closure of GameSpy, some EA titles may be offline forever

When GameSpy announced its closure it meant the end of an era, at least formally, but it also means that some games will potentially be offline for good.

Battlefield 2 and others will hopefully be able find a new online lease on life somewhere, somehow.

EA has announced, with a posting on their blog, that their titles that use GameSpy will cease online services in June.

For their part EA said they are investigating community-supported options to keep the games online but as of now have had little luck finding any. So it may be time to mourn playing the titles online until further notice.
