Actually he's right. He's talking about the devs, i.e. the guys who code, not the suits who decide the budget and what will or won't be done. Big difference.

What difference does that make to me? So some coder at tiburon is having inner turmoil over how madden turns out each year?
This changes the final product how?

The question was why blame the devs, not why blame EA.

Oh, they all get equal scorn in my book. As does the NFL.

ea has been pressuring the nfl for yrs to give them exclusive use of the license.

how can e.a. outbid disney? i don't know the logistics but i'm sure disney has more money than e.a.

e.a is scared of competition.

how many exclusive licenses do they have now?

alot more than other publishers that's for sure.

The news is disappointing but not surprising. I would think before a deal is made this would be the time for consumers to be more vocal in their reasons why they wouldn't want the deal to occur. But I guess many will likely be just as ambivelant towards the deal as they were the first go round - unless Disney does get the license lol. Either way, we can easily see how competition makes for better games - it's just sad we're having to compare 2K5 and APF as games Madden should compare to. Gamers have shown an immense amount of patience with Madden this gen - so I guess there isn't much they wouldn't put up with going forward.

you're going to have to convince a few more people than just those on OS if you want to keep EA from having the money to renew the license.


And

EA= NFL License
Backbreaker = no NFL license

Yeah, I am sure that EA is shaking in their boots right now.

The license will be renewed well before it even expires.

Not that it matters, since there won't be a world after 2012.

as long as u dont say they were scared of 2k so they quickly got the NFL license

They were scared of 2k which is why they bought the license.
