Jeremy Strauser, an employee of EA Sports from 1995-2011, testified that video game players were created to correlate with existing players numbers and biographical information. Strauser’s testimony took place last December but was filed by EA Sports last week.

No, no, no! Say it ain't so EA! How could you lie to us like that?

I didn't see this coming!

What a swerve!

I call BS. If true, why'd so many beg for a player editor???

The court would have to be dumb anyway to not see that EA uses player likeness down to every little detail but there name. It was just a matter of time until someone fought it long enough

As gamers we will be the one that pays the price though

The way this reads NCAA 14 could be one of the last game they make.

Re: Documents: EA Sports designed games to replicate existing NCAA athletes

I'ts always good when hypocrites (NCAA) and liars (EA...if this document is true) get exposed. I get sick of these big corporations constantly getting away with operating in the "gray zone" regarding anti-trust laws. I'm pulling for the players in this. As much as I like NCAA games right is right and wrong is wrong.

Bring on the class action and put the nail in this coffin for good.
