SOURCE: cant connect to the ea server

Ah you know, ea servers make you get your own account on line through them before you can play anything. Sucks, yeah, but no way around it. Hope that helps!

SOURCE: ea server

If you have an Xbox live "Silver" account all you can do is talk to your friends, it will not allow you to play games with them. If you have a "Gold" account it will allow you to do both and download content etc. It will tell you what type of account you have in "my xbox" under your avatar. This could be your problem. The other problem could be that this is the busiest weekend of the year for Madden due to the Super Bowl. I think the problem is going to be your subscription status being silver instead of gold.

Gamei wanna play my madden09 on xboxlive and its not working

EA(the creators of Madden) shut down their Xbox Live servers when a new game comes out because they try to make you buy the new game so you can play online. There's nothing wrong with your xbox, EA is just money-hungry.

When i push the play online button and it says could not connect to ea servers for madden 10

It is likely the servers have been deactivated for sometime not due the the introduction of The PSN and Xbox live. Im not sure on this so it could be a network setup Issue. Is the PS2 connected to the internet. and does the connection work with other titles. If id does work with other Titles it may be the EA server is down.

Xbox 360 live; trying to play Mercenaries 2 - won't connect to EA

Problem seems to be the XBOX Hard Disk Drive (HDD). Run the game and play it once for about 30 mintues, then try again with the HDD inserted. It should now work.

The problem seems to be a conflict with the HDD or with the EA servers, as the XBOX Live account will try to connect to the now dead EA servers for this 2008 title.

If all else fails, you will need a portable memory card, not the HDD to play this game. It's okay if this is the case. Create an offline profile. The game no longer connects to the EA servers anyhow.

EA Sports server issues

yes they are talking about on xbox live for online play. put it this way the ea servers are like an engine that hasnt been run for 30 years. they are all gumed up and broke down. they probably are planing a new ea game and dont have enough memory for online play for all the games

to sign in to ea servers you have to be 13. I am 14 but i used my sister's e-mail and it thinks i'm like 12. it really annoys me, why do they make it so you have to be 13 anyway i don't know. It might not be your age i don't know but that's what happened with me.

Playing madden 09 online

If it says ea servers not available that means the servers are down for maintenance, this is not unusual for video game servers, happens once or twice a month....

Also keep in mind playstation servers and xbox server are totally different.

I had the same problem where I'm logged into XBox Live and I couldn't get into the EA servers to play any EA games. This is what worked for me:

1. Hit the XBox button and Log out of XBox live.
2. Go to the Settings tab and select System Settings.
3. Choose Console Settings then Clock.
4. Choose Daylight Savings and set this to OFF and back out.
5. Log back into XBox Live and the time will be set automatically.
6. Start you EA Game and Have Fun!!!
