    Re: Stop the Presses: There will be no PFL 2K7

    Disappointed? Certainly. I'd rather be told up front though, then waste time and energy wondering about a potential 2K football game this year.

    I really wish 2K was better at handling this whole "football issue" rather than letting rumors and such run rampant by saying nothing.

      I was under the impression that there will be a game next year..NOT THIS YEAR AKA 2007.

      I am...and will be going off that podcast saying there will be competition next year for EA.

        lol, and Dave Chapelle went crazy and was locked in a mental institution in Africa too. Tupac and Biggy are chillin in St. Martin and Elvis is serving them drinks.

        Guys, remember companies don't have an obligation to say they're NOT making a game. They make a big deal out of when they ARE making a game b/c they want people to know it's out there so they can buy the game. The year Madden didn't put out a game, it was well in the works before they pulled the plug and was very clearly only taking a year off. It was in their best interest to let everyone know what was going on. Most other times you don't hear a thing. If you get any information it's from news feeds that tell about developers moving to other projects or something like that.

        All of the going back and forth is 100% forum generated. There's nothing TT or VC has done to give you hope or take your hope away. The conversations are interesting and some of you may believe more than you should, but it's crazy to blame them for this monster. If you don't want to blame yourself, blame the guy sitting next to you. No matter how upset you may be, you've gotta stay realistic.

          And your basing this completely and soley off FOOTBALL for next gen?? correct?
          Because the current state of "sports gaming" outside of football is just fine IMO

            I wish MS would just buy the rights to NFL2K. MS would be able to buy the NFL rights no problem. Give EA a taste of their own medicine.

              Company's Like Sony and MS will still be able to make an NFL game if they wanted too...I don't think EA is the only group...Kind of like the exclusive license to MLB and Take Two...

              If Visual Concepts was smart, they'd let microsoft publish their game ...and get it out....Just let TT keep all other titles...either way...it would get put out...or let TT and MS go into partnership....it would be alot of corporate looping.....but either way..we'd get our k football back..

                  False information alert!....The NFL/EA is an exclusive deal NOT a third paty exclusive deal. Sony, MS, 2K, Nintendo, 3DO, Turbo Graphx 16.....NO ONE can produce an NFL licensed game for the next 3 years.

                    Ignored? How are they ignoring you? They just informed us that there is no game coming out this year.

                      Gotcha...well either way, it sucks and even with finns editor..I think 2k5 is still better than Madden 07, just more fun to play...

                      But I don't know if I'm going to be able to go one editting this game for 3 more years....

                        Even if the license allowed for a 3rd party NFL game the last thing Sony or Microsoft would want to pi$$ off EA.

                          Good riddance.

                          As good as NFL 2K5 was, it's clear that 2K Sports either doesn't think enough of American consumers or of their own product to release an unlicensed football game. Nothing's changed, except it's been 2 straight seasons now without a 2K football game on the market. Out of sight, out of mind.

                          It's sad for me as a huge fan of NFL 2K5, and it's sad for all consumers who lose competition. But this isn't EA Sports' fault, and this isn't the NFL's fault, so we need to stop bringing that up.

                          EA made a great business move (that sucked for consumers), and 2K countered that by chickening out (which was much worse for consumers).

                            I am talking about the past 2 years. The no comment stance is getting old and lead reasonable people to believe all type of rumors. I am still hoping for a new game next year but 2k could have handle this situation better. Consumers still matters.

                            My best source of info of a potential game is you. I give you credit for asking the tough questions but I believe the consumers deserve better info than no comment response from 2k.

                            The same way 2k could tell Steve about a non game they could have communicate some hope within their fan base about a potential game.

                              I agree somewhat, they know what a loyal fanbase they have generated, they could throw us some sort of a bone. even if its not exactly what we want to hear just give us something concrete as to whats going on. I will admit that if they have been working on a game and it blows the doors off of anything done so far, and unviel it at E3 or somthing with no warning , that would be a nice move. the shock wave would be off the charts

                              EDIT: i can see the demo running now, Jacksonville generals vs Chicago Inferno .....LOL....i can hope right?
