Angry Why isn't NCAA 2004 out on PC?!?!

Why hasn't it been out on computer for... a long time. I only have a GameCube, and I don't think the controller for that would be good for a sports game.

I just don't see why EA doesn't release it on computer... do they hate computers or something????

Pretty much.

Even NBA Live 2002 was a console only game.

Not enough profit for the game in the PC market.

Yes there is (profit) but not enough to cover EA's exhorbant marketing budget and licensing fees.

NCAA 99 was one of my favorite games of all time and when they stopped producing a PC version for that line, it took years before I would buy another EA Sports title.

I don't understand why the game isn't on PC either, I mean they "port" Madden each year how much time would it take to do the same for NCAA since the game engines are probably almost identical in many ways.

Oh well, PS2 works for me.

Wait a second, FOF2, FOF 2001, and FOF 2002 were EA Sports games.

Don't tell me you, Buzzbee and the 'tacular one didn't buy any of those, or do they not count?

Because there are those out there that want a quality football game, yet still want to save some cash when it comes time to get a new trailer.
