"Once again, we are partnering with an industry leader who believes in the AFL philosophy and its growth potential. To the extent that EA helps grow the AFL, they participate in that growth through the increased value of future expansion teams," said Commissioner David Baker, Arena League Football. "EA is the videogame industry\'s gold standard. Arguably, nothing is more important to reach the younger male demographic that we are so strong in than video games. For our core fan, this is akin to a network-television agreement."
He can die for all I care. He doesn\'t know WTF he is talking about.

Aren\'t you a cheerleader of an Arena team? :p

ha.. Buffalo had an arena team for like 2 years. nobody went, so they left. Arena football= the WWE + monster truck rally with a ball.

I\'ve never been to an AFL game, don\'t plan on going. I guess the home town team\'s QB is pretty good. I think its the kid that used to go to FSU but had a gambling problem or wrote a bad check or something and now hes playing here. I guess he might go to the NFL next year.
-
I don\'t know what AFL is really (never heard of it), but if EA see\'s profit in it, great. Go EA!
-
^^^Spoken like a true shareholder.
Wait. What\'s that? You don\'t own stock in EA so their success or failure means nothing to you? How strange.
Did you guys hear the great news?! Dish Network is raising subscription fees by $4 !!! WOO HOO!!! EchoStar comes through AGAIN. DAMN I love me some EchoStar Satellite LLC.

Are... you my broker? Cause... I\'m pretty sure you aren\'t...

^^^You do NOT own stock in EA. I will not even discuss this. Even if you say that you do you and I both know that you will be lying.
Moving on.

AFL = Australian Football League
Or doesn\'t it?
-
Arena Football League
-
OIC
-
there is an australian football league?
Speaking of that, why isn\'t there a good rugby title? That would probably kick ass. OR is there one.
-

I wish they would release these in the US. I would definately buy a copy.

EA will collapse one day. That would be a good day in my eyes. I don\'t like how they are trying to corner the market.

i would\'ve started a new thread but this info will fit nicely in here...i\'m convinced EA is clearly afraid of competition and is slowly driving this market,..(as far as sports gaming goes) to a crash...jesus...they are just out of control...this is really just gettin sickening...if anybody says that this is just a business deal...and it is, but it just seems they\'re just doin it because they have the capital to do it...this is what happens when a company gets too big for themselves and knows that no matter what product they put out,...the EA slaves will buy it...this is truly f**ked up...

Now thats ****ed up. I am so pissed. I am not a madden fan. I just don\'t like the game anymore. ESPN was the better game this year. I like it so much better. Now they ****ing have espn so they can try and sway the NFL 2k fans. **** EA and madden I just won\'t play football games anymore. I refuse to give into this bullshit:mad:

What up clips. I been real busy lately. Have had no time for much. I heard about the NFL license and that pissed me off. Hey you really can\'t blame ESPN though. With no license the 2k series is pretty much dead. So ESPN had no other choice. I couldn\'t see them being associated with a unlicensed product.
They should hire VC and put out two games just like always that would make me happy. But that would never happen with EA. The gameplay and style that madden currently has is a turn off for me. And as much as I love football I will just have to suffer.

You two are funny, it makes sense in all ways to have ESPN brand on an EA game considering Madden works for ABC which is owned by Disney or was which owns ESPN now they have no conflicts of interest, so in all reality I don\'t see where competition comes in here, all I see is ESPN and ABC Sports coming together in a football game, now we can have Monday night games on madden, woot. Well at least real.

what you and qdog stated makes sense,..this i know...i just hate the way EA is buyin up s**t...yea sega can make a generic football game :rolleyes: but keep it real, who\'s gonna cop that? yea ea will have what ever espn style graphics on their game,..but it will be nothing to the way sega used it....trust. it doesn\'t matter if both worlds are comin together...to me sega\'s football game was better than EA\'s latest effort...

I read on another site that EA is getting rid of Madden soon and this is just another step in that process.

Yeah I heard they where trying to scrap the whole madden thing. About time I hated the commentary in madden. It was so horrible. There product is a house hold name now and they must be tired of fattening madden\'s pockets.

I posted my thoughts in the other thread. Dangit. Oh well, no surprise, I think it\'s great news.
-
Found the next madden cover. Totally deserved it.
-
I agree with that 100%...stupid f^ckers...
-
Haha. That pic is too good.

Does this mean no more Dan Stevens and Peter O\'Keefe?
That Peter, always thinking about food. I\'ma miss you, buddy :(

random note: i got a magazine that said the next generation of madden looks like that commercial a while ago with Vick and TO on the same team in the green uniforms (kinda look like the jags..but not). I think it was a nike commercial. Very cool.
