Any chances of a NFL 2K comeback?

I recently read that 2K is trying to get the license this year. Is this information true or false? Because I personally believe It's 100 times better than Madden.

I doubt that 2K Sports will get the license but I think that NFL 2K will return after that EA Sports deal ends in 2013. So we may see competition in the future.

EA Sports ends their NFL deal Feb 2013.

Just because the EA deal is set to end doesn't mean they won't renew it. I doubt EA will give up the NFL License and I don't think 2K has the money to compete with EA for the license. Where did you read that 2K was trying to get the license?

I read a story maybe a year ago that 2k had approached NFLPA for licensing and was sellng assets and whatnot to come up with the cash. Cant for the life of me remember where i read it though.

While I too believe the EA/NFL exclusive is ending after the 2013-14 NFL season/Madden 14, that makes it impossible for 2k to put out a NFL football game until then. If NFL2k did somehow make a comeback on these consoles after the exclusive license expired, it would probably just be a NFL branded APF2k8 rather than a new game.

I started this thread earlier this year in the Madden forum discussing why I think the NFL exclusive is ending. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...e-license.html

2k football needs to come back. They actually focused on core gameplay issues unlike some other game that only looks pretty but doesn't actually FEEL like football.

Nike took the exclusive license from Reebok by making a better product by continuing to manufacture for other forms of football & becoming a higher demand than Reebook because they showed they are more creative...apparently the 2K team doesn't understand that.
