    I must admit the mods are way better than they was years ago they was bodyguard madden like they was protecting the president and give you a quick ban[emoji724]
    So i give they props on that coming along way lol
    Nah, I was laughing with you about your response to everyone else.

    Just didn't come across that way....

    Whenever anything pops up that is deemed '2K vs. EA' certain agenda based folks (on both sides) love to come around.

    I won't elaborate further then that so to stay on the good side of the TOS.

          2K is just practicing bad business as far i'm concerned. 2k5 on Retroarch is so much better than Madden to me. Most things that Madden 23 is clamoring about is quite prevalent in 2k5. The updated graphics and such have given me a new feeling of playing football again. Are the people at 2K games looking at the stats and data? The sales for underwhelming football games actually show a promising trend. The downward sales trend is due to the lack of quality of the product, but the short run curve should tell you that sales would go crazy if they produced another football game and gave it some longevity. The name of the game is customization and immersion. The NFL name on the product is secondary to a whole target audience. I hate that ease of functionality is something that keeps being spoken of. Pick up and Play is an outdated concept when simulation is the topic of discussion. Appealing to "new" players is something that I can't even understand to be honest. That was a Nintendo based strategy back in the 80's. Cleaning up 2k8's engine and scrapping the All-pro players would go along way. Keeping them as a fun diversion to an in depth simulation game would be great but at this point, I can't see where not having the NFL license would really kill their product. I'm more than certain that some talented bunch of dudes would take care that rather swiftly. I am just not seeing why they aren't seeing what we're seeing. Look at historical products: TV sports football, High Impact, Joe Montana Football, Early John Madden Football games, Front Page Football, etc. These were great games that moved the needle yet, they had no NFL License. The freedom that 2K would have to create a deep game would be limitless. It would be financially irresponsible for them to continue to shy away from their destiny. Football made you guys famous, lets keep it going gentlemen, and Ladies!

            If the rumors are true about the NFL want 2k to cater to the younger audience
            Myplayer would be the best Way to go because they already had NBA Playgrounds/WWE battlegrounds and obviously didnt sell (the younger audience wasn't buying)well no sequels and now i believe they coming out in 2024 because College makes thier debut next year and we all know no other football game gonna touch it even Madden with all the big hype around college wether its good or not

              I stand corrected
              they not making another wwe battlegrounds and now i
              can understand 2k taking this time with this arcade football game

              Like I said before those wacky arcade games is a thing of the past (old generation)is not in high demand From the younger audience like we think🤷

              The partnership between WWE and 2K seemingly isn't going anywhere anytime soon thanks to the overwhelming success of WWE 2K22.

                NCAA 14 sold just over 1 million copies. Madden sells 5-5.5 million in a down year and sold over 8 million a year in the ps2 glory days. If EA didn’t share development costs between the games they wouldn’t bother with NCAA.

                That said, 2k definitely would’ve been better off if the game had been ready this year. Madden 23 opened to really bad/meh reviews and there’s no college game in the market at all.

                  I agree. Especially since the new CFB is likely going to sell well the first few years. I can definitely see a scenario where CFB outsells whatever 2k releases. I can see 3-5 million copies for CFB the first couple years, then it cool down to 2-3 million. This would have been a good year to release if it was ready.

                    It can’t be a good thing for 2k to have to compete with 2 football titles a year but I think the college game will mostly siphon sales from madden more so than 2ks title.

                    The thing about 2k’s game is whatever it is, it’s truly a new game, built from the ground up. It’ll take better advantage of new technology while madden will be for the foreseeable future a tried and true albeit stale formula based off a core designed in 2005 and the college game will just be a sort of spin off of that with the same basic gameplay. I think bringing something new and fresh to the football market will help 2k sales a lot.

                    When all the games are on the market I can see madden sales dropping a bit but they will still easily be top dog. 2ks game will be a solid 2nd and NCAA will be a distant but profitable 3rd

                      Depends how well they handle the marketing. Madden is Madden but I think 2K will try to market it like they do NBA 2K with celebrities and rappers and a good MyCareer mode and it may overtake Madden if they put out a ****ty game again.

                        We all wondering when the reveal
                        But what's very interesting to me is the release date
                        Because college is in July and Madden in August
                        NBA 2k in September

                        College alone got people thirsty for it (myself included)

                        So my new big question is how 2k gonna fit between July&August& September 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

                            Ronnie 2K went on the Rich Eisen show but I don’t think they talked about NFL 2K.

                                I would have thought we would hear something around Madden 24 news just to say "hey we are still here."

                                Maybe they are not...
