Its a real shame that they make you play their games on their servers. There servers are all over seas so the games always lag. Then they just go and shut down the servers after a couple years which means you will NEVER be able to get any of the multi-player achievments. It also renders the details on the case as false, they should be made to recal the games and reissue them with new cases. If they dont want to host it anymore they should close their servers and release a patch that opens up private match making. But then why dont they just do that from the get go? Just have the option to play on their servers or in a P2P match. It has already had a very strong effect on my Gamming purchases, I dont like buying EA Games.
