Pfft they are all sports games so it doesn't effect me.

Not really wrong on the no dedis killing MW2.  It's happening slowly but they are losing players.  I would say once all the people that don't care for the game have an alternative you will see a mass of people leaving.  Which is a bad thing for a game the uses a P2P protocol.

Every major game release has a peak level that shrinks after initial release. There are hundreds of precedents. MMOs often lose upwards of 80% of their player base within the first month. Right now I can jump on and find hundreds of thousands of players. That's hardly a "dying game".

EA doesn't some very questionable things, and releases some very questionable games. This isn't one of those times. This is pretty much like asking HT to keep hosting Aces High 1.

Most of these titles are all outdated annual versions for last generations consoles. I highly doubt anyone still plays them online anyway.
