I loved APF2K8, but it's more of a strategic game, and it's the strategy that drew me into it.
I hope both EA/2K have the rights, and not just 2K. If EA is struggling to turn a profit on 7 million in sales, I don't see how 2K could do it on less sales if they had the license. Both companies should have the license, including back breaker if they want it, so we can have real competition and better games once again.
