Another company is not going to put themselves in that situation because of the pressures of having to pay to publish with NBA and still compete with sales against 2k and when EA when finally decides to come out. If EA gave up their rights, then I guarantee we all would have seen another company emerge by now. The situation is too risky for a third company to get into basketball right now.

ok lets say hypothetically that both nba live and nba 2k are horrible games and have been horrible games for the last say six years. are you honestly telling me that no other company would think to try and make a game because there are already two games on the market?

or lets say that ea does decide to step out. does that mean the first company that steps in is the only one thats going to succeed? if i release an nba game after ea leaves no one else will try since i took that second spot regardless of how bad my game is? and the only reason they will not try is because there are two games on the market?
