In my opinion, as sports games get the ax, it eventually will impact sites like OS AND PastaPadre. If my ONLY choice of an NHL game, an NFL game, a College Hoops game and even an MLB game is limited to ONE option, why do I need to come by a sports video game site to tell me what is coming down the pike for something I have no choice but to buy. I expect EA to sit on development and pump out junk (or little changes) because there is no competition and ultimately, there isn't as MUCH anticipation as there had been in prior years. So, my point: axing NHL 2K, College Hoops 2K, exclusive contracts, so on... is bad for Sports Video game journalism.
