2k never getting the NFL sim license!!

The NFL makes me sick and 2k is delusional like a guy that thinks he can win the girl (NFL) heart every five years

At this point I made up my mind to stop my hope alive

Honestly, I had given up about 10 years ago.

2k had their chance with the arcade game they were supposed to release what, 2 years ago, and we have not heard a peep. That doesn't make them look like they could handle a sim style, even tho we all know they can.

Sure, the NFL cares about their brand, but 2 billion dollars IMO would make them look the other way. Sales are still too good, unfortunately, and it will take a massive shift for the NFL to open it up for competition.

I don't know why you do this to yourself, man. Every other month it's some video about a guy who thinks a game might be coming. Then the other months it's something from someone who says it isn't.

There's nothing else you can do but just assume there isn't a sim NFL2K game coming, ever. Then if it does one day, great.

Re: 2k never getting the NFL sim license!!

I kept hoping the license deal with EA would end at some point but it never will, to much $$$$$ to be made. My big beef is why didn't 2K continue on with the All Pro football series? That was a good game , and if they improved it every year or two we would have an amazing game by now.

Re: 2k never getting the NFL sim license!!

I think the only thing that might possibly catch the NFL's attention is a massive outcry from fans. I know SOFTDRINK TV and some others have tried but nowhere close to enough.

People have just moved on man. Alot of people who fell in love with 2K5 or APF2K8 are just over it.

Re: 2k never getting the NFL sim license!!

I be wondering how close 2k even gets during negotiations and then it falls through after EA throws the same bag 💰 to the NFL and tells 2k maybe next time (5yrs)🤔

I don't think EA even lets 2K get close to the lobby of the building.
