Is pretty 'significant'. Pretty much the ultimate slap in the face. Game over in a lot of ways.

Great post as always mate. I agree with everything you said 100%.

Sure it's only one man but he's pretty much the guy when it comes to being synonymous with sim bball gaming so it speaks volumes that he's back with 2k so quickly imo. Too many suits at EA trying to come up with gimmicks, worrying about marketing and focus groups and not focusing on the core gameplay it seems.
