Re: Can a Two-Year Cycle Work?

I'd love a 2 year cycle. But I'm in the minority when I say I only have Madden 06, MVP 05, NHL 2k7, and NFL 2k5. Games that are all 2+ years old (with the exception of 2k7, which I would still have 2k6 if my disc wasn't run over... long story).

But just like everyone else, I agree no big time developer would ever be able to pull it off.

The only developers that would be able to do this would be a minor developer. If Microsoft got back into making their sports games, I think they could do it to start off. Or Nintendo. But once you hit the big time, which 2k, EA, and SCEA's baseball game all have, you can't get away with it. The fans want more. Now. If you can get more proft from 2 games in 2 years then you won't be making only 1 game in 2 years.
