NFL HC is aimed at the sim football gamer
Madden is the arcade football game w/ NFL license
NFL Street is an over the top arcade football game w/ NFL license
NCAA is the arcade football game w/ NCAA license
Arena is the arcade football game w/ AFL license

And I bet EA plans a NFL Legends game

You won't see a football game in the future which includes all or most of the features. Therefore EA can sell more than one football game per year to one gamer.
Hellava post!!

Your little pic is only partially true as I said, it's apples and oranges and two different markets they're shooting for, but even still..there's no shame in that, that's what businesses are in business for.....to make money.

To decide whether they want to buy a certain product or not.

If consumers don't buy product = product will change, will be reduced in price, or will no longer be sold.

If consumers complain on message boards but still buy product = product will not change.

I'm not buying the product myself (not that anyone cares of course), but understand why someone would. EA's placed themselves in a near no-lose situation. People love football. I hated NFL Fever when it was available, but if it were the only football game available I'd be open to giving it a try. The lack of choice changes the whole dynamic

I honestly don't think the head coach game will sell too good, but it doesn't look like they had too put much effort in making it, so it doesn't matter how many copies they sell.

You need to do a little more research on that game if thats what you think.
