    new 2k fooball game?

    I was at borders books yesterday b cuzz I read a thread on the 2ksports site about a possible 2kfootball game. I picked up the new issue of electronic gaming mag.,turned to pg 20 they responded to a letter saying "look for a shake up next season from Blitz the league and a original unliscened football game from 2ksports" anybody else checked this out?

    I heard this too. If I had to guess I would say that it is 95% true.

      I tell ya, if this happens and ben brinkman shapes up mlb 2k7, next year might be a good year for sports games. I doubt it though.

          Is this the first time a "rumor" like this has been in print? I don't remember a 2k game ever being talked about in other gaming mags. Holding off on a 2k football game might have been 2k's strategy, as they want the next generation of gaming to really start. Making a game with the customizability that everyone wanted probably wasn't very feasible on the current generation of consoles. Just look at the dramatic difference between the CAP mode on NBA 2k7 for Xbox/PS2 and on 360. Plus they probably didn't want to split development time on building a game for both current gen and next gen since VC doesn't have near the resources that EA does. I can only hope EGM knows what they're talking about...until 2k officially says something I'll be skeptical, but I think this is a good sign.

            Why don't they make a high school football game? Have it so you can use genenic schools or for those who don't mind the time, create the schools in your county.

              The market for a generic high school game is probably even smaller than the market for a generic pro game...

                The Winning Eleven series pulled it off on the current gen, so I don't think that was the issue. I will keep my fingers crossed, but I won't hold my breathe. As someone already stated, if 2K brings back football and gets their baseball game in order, it will be a great year for sports gaming. Don't be surprised if EA then buys an exclusive license to all video games...lol.

                  Maybe the guys at VC couldn't implement that level of customization like Konami could. I'm sure a game COULD have been made, but I just don't think VC's customization abilities were there yet...just look at how poor the CAP and CAT modes have been for both the NFL and NBA series. Lol...I wouldn't put it past EA to try to get exclusive licenses to everything. We definitely have to keep our fingers crossed this year.

                    I defitnitely think that 2K could drop another football game ethier next season or after. There is no better time to cash in on another pro football game with Madden being so dull and longtime fans of the series jumping ship by the boatload.

                      EA can't get exclusivity to the game of football itself.....so I'm hoping this gets done, 3 years is a long way to wait for another NFL game from anyone else, and is IF the NFL doesn't extend their contract.

                        Probably just another empty rumor that will crush us all. Sorry but I won't ever believe in a 2K football game rumor again until I am actually playing the game.

                            Considering the fact that 2k7 series games so far are 2 for 2...in being great games.

                            If this football dropped now, or next season. Its going to sell millions because...they are getting mad recognition right now.

                            Especially with the protest of NBA live and the disappointments with Madden....

                            Dropping a football with 2k on it..will sell by name within it self....but to have great customization options, is going to boost the limitless play....

                            Can't wait next season...Football 2k8 is going to be crazy...the return of Dan and Peter would be a breathe of fresh air...from that annoying radio announcer on Madden....
