I remember hearing EA Sports, it’s in the game, and being hype… I don’t know what the games say anymore because I don’t play them anymore.

I hate to be the advocate of EA here but I’m convinced it’s because FIFA is not allowing them to use the trademark any longer and the mentioned loopholes are either permitted by FIFA or will be closed soon.

Nothing to do with previous titles. You could still purchase them. This is EA locking you into playing the current version of the game. Some people like the mechanics of the older games and don’t want to have to pay these games that are more store front than actual game.

You could still purchase them.

Licensed stuff in games expires all the time, leading to them being delisted. Usually licensed music, though.

True. This might be that. I just have trust issues with EA.

  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
