GameSpy servers are closing, and Electronic Arts is ending its support for 50 games under the Gamespy banner by the end of June.

As reported by Digital Spy,  a statement from EA reads, "Since GameSpy's announcement, our teams have been working to evaluate options to keep services up and running. Unfortunately, due to technical challenges and concerns about the player experience, we do not have a solution at this time. Online services for EA games on the GameSpy platform will be closed down at the end of June."

The statement went on to say, "We know some of these games are still fan favourites, including 'Battlefield 2', 'Battlefield 1942', 'Medal of Honour: Allied Assault', and 'Command & Conquer' games. We are still investigating community-supported options to preserve online functionality for these titles, such as multiplayer. Significant technical hurdles remain, and at this time we don't have anything to announce."
