EA PLEASE USE ESPN LICENSE!!

[kjhen]

this is a big request that millions of people are waiting for EA to do. EA r u guys finally going to use the ESPN license for next year's game!!! we all saw what NCAA basketball 10 was capable of doing with the Espn and CBS integration. I don't understand why this wasn't a priority for u guys in the past, but maybe it was to high of a budjet to implement or not enough disk space like u guys always say!! But now there's a new fresh game for next year and this should be priority # 1 for NCAA 11. presentation in NCAA 10 WAS HORRIBLE! i mean i know u guys play ncaa 10 once in a while, and see what the presentation is lacking. Just look at what NCAA basketball 10 did. they were able to get CBS, and put it in the game exactly as u see it on Tv. and ESPN also. they even used 2 different commentators for the two networks. i'm not going to go into detail of how it should be, becase it's pretty obvious what has to be done. EA i hope u guys finally put this into action and consider this for next year, and hopefully we won't have another upset and have to wait for NCAA football 12

It would be great if they used ESPN, CBS has great presentation too if they could use that like they do in the basketball game (besides the God-awful commentating team on CBS).

Why pay all that money for license and not use the brand? This has never made any since to me.

I would also love to hear Todd B. and Verne L on CBS with the espn crew. Gotta think its around the corner

technically they have, just not the way we would want them to.

they have the ESPN on demand thing and the ESPN radio thing. obviously we would want it to be used in presentation, but we don't know the terms of the contract and what they can or can not do with the license.

I hear what your saying. But yes, when something says "Powered by ESPN" or whatever EA advertise, we do expect more than a strategically placed logo.

If it is going to require 60% of the development time, like it did with NCAA Basketball 10, then I would say, "Please DON'T use the ESPN license." To me, there are so many much more important gameplay, A.I., and Dynasty issues to deal with first.

well, the BBall game has 2 different crews(ESPN and CBS). that is the reason it took so much of their time. if the FBall devs just incorporate ESPN with the crew they currently have, I don't see it taking that much of the time(compared to the BBall game).
