    Since EA have shut down the servers I was wondering whether the Xbox 360 version of the game is still playable online through the use of private games? (If the game has this feature.)

    Yes, I am aware that the PC version is still playable through third-party software. However, I am asking about the Xbox 360 version due to the fact that my friend's PC's are less than stellar and we fancied playing it on the 360 together.

    Well I was actually asking more for my own sake. I've wanted to try it out and kinda forgot about it until you mentioned it.

    This is disappointing. Ah well, thanks anyway.
