I'd say it's something to be delusional about.

Is there any particular reason why EA cannot release a fully customizable college game? Way back when they started, they used teams such as College Station, Tallahassee, or Austin.

Leave it at that... don't try to be cute and mimic their colors. Don't try to be cute and have the starting QB for the Tuscaloosa team #13 with brown skin. This is what got them in trouble.

But the game is fully customizable... if gamers change the colors and names of the players and upload them to the serves, EA cannot be held liable for that. Remember... this is not what got EA in trouble... what got them in hot water is that the QB for the Florida Gators was a white lefty from Jacksonville FL who ran very well and wore #15 but EA tried w/ a straight face to claim it is a coincidence.

Resources, development, huge cost, and likely little revenue return for a niche audience. Especially considering the industry climate, doing this stuff is as grueling as it's ever been. EA can't just snap their fingers out of the goodness of their hearts and say "lol here u go" just like that.

An unlicensed college game would only appeal to the hardcore college fans. I don't see EA making an unlicensed game. I know I saw a video saying if EA made it to NCAA, then they would have tried to make the game a lot more customizable. But I can see EA wanting to be authentic as possible, so I don't see them creating a game with fake teams. Especially if they don't want to have coordinators in Madden because they want to have real coordinators

It's crazy to think about how fun it would be have a college sports game in this generation. Just think about having a my career in college basketball just like 2k were you can choose your own university and play high school games. Damn the NCAA needs to fix this, just pay the student athletes and we will have college sports games back!


I miss playing college football and basketball. It sucks that it is out of the fans control. All we can do is sit back and hope the NCAA can figure a way to pay these students.smh
