I'm all for support of competition...and i'm 99% sure that EA wont buy them out. They--like other companies right now--want to make money, dont make sense otherwise.
EA bought the college, espn, arena football as well as the nfl license. They eliminated the competition in every use of the word. If Backbreaker becomes too successful, I could see EA buying it, not to use it but to keep it out of games so they don't lose sales, just like the ESPN license. If APF could of used ESPN in that game, it would have helped it alot.
