I agree, right now most of their titles are very sub-par. As long as they keep making Links I'm happy.

I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so.

They are not really dead though, just on hiatus. There will be another MS football game and basketball game. I think next year we can even see MS baseball. I think that they are smart and realized that to build all new engines for these games, takes over a year. Just look at baseball. No Inside Pitch this year. Year off. They are now just doing it for the rest, which needed it.

They are not RIP, just sleeping.

Maybe because to some, including me, MLB Baseball this year is the best of the bunch with ASBB rigth behind it. Things change.......

I actually bought NFL Fever 2002 when it made its debut alongside the new Xbox. And then I returned it a month later to get NFL2k2 for the Xbox. When i first popped the game in, i was greeted with authentic NFL Films Presents music (John Facenda era) and some of the best looking graphics ever in an NFL video game. After playing with the game for a while, about two or three weeks, I came to realize that this game was RELYING on flash because it had NO substance. Kind of like a good looking chick with a rotten personality. This game has no substance or soul. It does not engulf you in an NFL experience, making you forget reality for a few hours because you just scored the game winning field goal. Who knows? Maybe when Microsoft gives us their second chance at a great NFL video game, it will be on the Xbox Next in November 2005. If this is the case, then it is a very good strategy to halt production on a losing title, in order to concentrate their time, efforts and money on a next-gen console NFL title. I wish them luck. Until then, gamers at least have two big players to choose from; NFL2k5 and Madden 2005.
