And they delisted them after 1-2 hours the sale began. What a dick move!!! 👎👹
That's the first time the games get delisted during a sale, I think.
Feel so sorry for those who want the games but can't get the games on the sale in time. 😰
And right, fxxxk you EA.

They knew that no matter what some people would buy them anyway at any cost because these games will no longer exist in the store. So...
I think they already plan to have the regular lowest prices for the Summer sale, not this one, no matter these games will be delisted or not.
The wicked thing is they didn't give us enough time, like a month ahead warning, to buy these games.
Also, before 2020.07.25, these games were in the EA Racing Pack, and the historically lowest price is $10~12 or so for five games. But since then, they replaced the old 5 games with the six new title ones. And no warning ahead of course.

God damn, I was actually considering waiting to buy them but I said, nah Im gonna buy them anyway so lets just bite the bullet and get it over with. Glad I did it, but its scummy from them to not be clear about the exact date they were gping to remove them.

Exactly! Lucky for both of us but not for some others.
Someone just bought the games with no discount right after they released the warning on Reddit but before the pretty pathetic sale. After the sale began, that person refunded the games and would like to purchase them again at a discount price but the tragedy happened: those games are gone, for good! Pretty sad indeed.

Hello there!
Today, we have some news to share about some of the older Need for Speed titles:
Starting May 31st 2021, Need for Speed Carbon, Need for Speed Undercover, Need for Speed Shift, Need for Speed Shift 2: Unleashed and Need for Speed The Run will be removed from digital storefronts and you will no longer be able to purchase them. In-game stores will also be closed from May 31st. This is in preparation for the retirement of the online services for these titles which will happen on August 31st 2021. Until that date, you will be able to play and race your friends (and rivals) online. From September 1st 2021 onwards, you can still play the games and use the respective offline features of these titles.
Decisions to retire games are never made easy, but we are now shifting gears to focus on the future of Need for Speed. The development teams and operational staff have put a lot of time and passion into the development, creation, release and upkeep of the game over the years, and we love to see you play. But the number of players has come to a point where it's no longer feasible to continue the work behind the scenes required to keep Need for Speed Carbon, Need for Speed Undercover, Need for Speed Shift, Need for Speed Shift 2: Unleashed and Need for Speed The Run up and running. We hope you have gotten many victories, satisfying drifts, moments of friendly rivalry, and hours of joy over the last few years out of these games. And we hope you'll keep driving with us in one of our newer titles - Need for Speed Most Wanted (2012), Need for Speed Rivals, Need for Speed (2015), Need for Speed Payback, Need for Speed Heat and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered - many of which are available via our EA Play subscription. Pedal to the metal.
