Why couldn't they get the football license? Arrrrrrgh!

"Hoping to bring added sizzle to the baseball space, Take-Two says it will introduce more games and will distribute them with greater frequency than the industry is used to. While it seems likely a flight of games timed with the start of baseball season in the Spring is a given, Take-Two says it will focus additional strategic energy on the "key the holiday-selling season." The company has plans to release licensed baseball games "year-round."
Just imagine...a version of NFL2k6 in the fall, and another version (or 10 dollar update) with improvements and complete fixes around the holiday, just in time for the playoffs!

Yeah, they should get it right the first time but then again, someone please name one..just ONE..sportsgame with absolutely no glitches or room for improvment.

Jeez...Why couldn't they get football?

I'll name you a couple...

- Baseball Stars (NES)
- Tecmo Super Bowl (NES)

I would play those two for hours upon end and never had any complaints!

Well it's not like they are going to do all sim games or re-release the game with fixed bugs. This is no different than what EA is going to do with the NFL.
