The comments from Paul (senior marketing dude at 2K) had me believing they were actually working on it. Who knows?

I'm not sure I want to know. If I found out that this game was nearly finished and it had a deep My Player, etc, etc. I'd probably cry.

I loved Fox Championship Hockey for the PS2. It only got one year. But a former developer commented on 2khockey.net that they were 3 months from finishing the sequel and all he said was "you should have seen what was in store".
The lead producer for NHL Slapshot worked on FC2000 as well, and during my short interview with him about Slapshot, he echoed the sentiment saying that the sequel was awesome.
That was painful to hear. I really enjoyed FC2000.

At this point it doesn't matter. But I'd bet that they weren't even working on 2K12 at all.
