Now with the entire sports simulation gaming genre being more about authenticity, I think a 2k football game building on the realism in APF2k8 and the real world broadcast presentation of NFL2k5/NBA2k would be much more appealing to the masses in 2012. The Show, NHL and NBA2k beat out there respective competition by being the most realistic representations of their sports, not by being "fun" arcade games or even hybrids.

My biggest fear is EA and the NFL renegotiating their contract to benefit EA. I only see one company that is willing to make an offer to the NFL and thats 2k. I will ask you what is your take on the NFL lincense not being as exclusive as we have been told to believe? Say 2k can still get the NFL license but they would have to release the game a couple of months after EA.
