As disappointing as it is that they are currently in sole control of NFL gaming, thank God it's just that and not something more substantial.

I do believe that's why EA is so chumy with Micro$oft, they share the same outlook and vision. Look at E3 when Xbox1 1st revealed their DRM, always online, daily 24 hour check-in, Kinect2 mandatory, no used games, etc...
that was until there was a balance of power-namely the PS4 announced their intentions.
(1 million pre-orders, sold out everywhere)
If not for Sony they would have had the "one console to rule them all." Sort of like what we have now with the NFL exclusive contract "you will take it and like it!"
But unlike the balances of power we have with the Consoles, in regards to NFL videogames we have none, sadly.
