Because EA somehow got exclusive licenses to things they should not be legally allowed to have exclusive licenses for.
Some other game maker would crush EA in the market if they were allowed to use NFL logo's and names.
- MrMember 7y agoI'm still salty about EA getting the exclusive NFL license. NFL 2K5 was a better game than Madden and they made the ballsy move of selling it for $20 brand new the day it came out. EA got so spooked they spent who knows how much locking down an exclusive license. Though in hindsight who knows what a 2K NFL game would look like today. With the way they butchered their NBA games I don't have much faith that an NFL game would be any better.
- dvtrn 7y agoNBA 2k today suffers from the same problem Madden suffers from today: no studios competing with them to push them into making a better product. Who knows if the latest PES (which looks absurdly good) will push EA to make fifa worth a damn again, but at least we’ve got choices in futbol games now. Edit: No seriously, look at this trailer for PES2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_89i5H1zAeU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_89i5H1zAeU it's amazing
