Agreed,

Sorry, usually here when people start a post with "again" it means they are posting the same thing they've posted already out of frustration thinking no one is listening.

Just wanted to say I don't think anyone was questioning your motives.

The only way it becomes a system seller is only if they (Microsoft) & EA bundle this game (JMF16) with Madden 16 exclusively for the whole year until next years released.

They are being meticulous with what and how much information is getting revealed. There are definitely getting ready to throw the logs on the fire. I am not going to say whether I believe they secured some type of licensing with the NFL and NFLPA but if they did they certainly weren't going to reveal it in this screenshot. If they do have said licensing then that will be their gasoline that blows this whole thing up. It would be the last thing they revealed because no one believes it is possible for anyone other than EA to hold the licensing. The issue is no one really knows what the language of the licensing contract is anymore. In the meantime, I am going to get a Hershey bar, marshmallows, and graham crackers because this is going to get real interesting for all fans of football and gaming.

Very great points, I feel the same way.

I know you posted this theory based on a football/tennis bundle earlier but this is not viable and won't happen.


The only way this will become a system seller is if they are ever able to get the NFL license and are produced exclusively by MS as a first party title on the xbone.

Although we kind of know that damon grow visits OS daily, we can now confirm that Damon knows what we are discussing about (is it Xbox exclusive or not)(is it from 2k or not). Check it out.http://mobile.twitter.com/DamonGrow/...90639398289409

They are also a major partner with EA who I am sure would have objections.

Why couldn't Microsoft come to agreement with EA to use their NFL title as a crutch for their first year sales for JMF16 as a "Exclusive" (Microsoft) football game?

From my beliefs EA & Microsoft both have a strong relationship from their EA Access deal. Plus last year Microsoft & the NFL made that big Xbox media deal.

So I'm not trying to convince anyone of my outlook on where things are heading. But personally I believe all three (EA, Microsoft, NFL) have something to do with the first year of the JMF series.
