They should improve because EA are going to force 2nd hand games to start paying to use them.

I expect a big improvement in EA servers with this culling of old games. Some of the worst servers I've been on.

I was worried until Butch pointed out to actually read the list properly.

None of those server bother me in the slightest, or that many people either I should imagine.

Funnily enough, generally the last few weeks before a game gets shut down is the generally the best for getting trophies/achievements, as the people who are on are generally all people you can communicate boosting requirements etc. with on the relevant forums. And I imagine that the servers are closed on a usage policy more than anything else (hence why the 2010 World Cup games have been closed on PSP and Wii, but not PS3/360 yet.
