EA Sports Will Not Publish College Football Game Next Year, Future Plans in Doubt

[blkrptnt819]

This is really bothering me so I have to say something. How many ppl would care about O'Bannon suing if this game wasn't gonna stop being made? Also why are ppl acting like O'Bannon and the players suing are the bad guys? Students with academic scholarships get the same thing that athletic scholarship players get without the restrictions and without a large amount of their time being governed by an activity.

I just think the way ppl are viewing this situation is absurd and the same thing that is driving the players, is also driving you opinion, self interest. From your point of view the players are costing you one of your favorite games. From their point of view everybody is getting rich off of them but them. You are no different then the ppl you are bad mouthing.

Hopefully they can work this out the NCAA are receiving enough heat. This would actually be better for everybody. We could finally have EA use the likeness of the players no waiting on roster updates from random people(no offense). Having the ability to have each player done right with no restrictions.

This could be potentially be a good thing long term.

How are you getting any of that from any of this news?

This game isn't being cancelled because of poor sales, EA Sports as a company struggling, etc. It's being cancelled because of what you're telling people not to talk about....

I will ignore the immature back handed jab that as you know accomplishes nothing and invite you to re-read my posts because I said nothing of the sort.

I said I'm not going to let this thread turn into what these two threads, amongst many others, turned into (I'll give you a hint, it's the same discussion).

If you really want to beat a dead horse and continue to discuss the same thing over and over again where the discussion is always I am right and you are wrong and here's why where no one's mind is going to be changed no matter what anyone says then feel free to bump either of those already de-railed thread to discuss it.


And as I mentioned earlier, there is no reason to let that happen again in this thread....

I personally never thought Sam Keller's likeness was in the game cuz the qb in the game was actually good so in my mind didn't seem like scrubby Keller at all

If there's a chance of EA having to pay up to thousands, there's no way they will keep the entire staff employed and just shift resources. I'm disappointed because I felt like 2014 was a serious improvement and it erased a lot of my concerns and turn offs from NCAA 13. You can't tell me someone in Southern California wasn't putting some money into O'bannon's pockets back then either.. I'm sure he feels real exploited. The whole thing is a god damn joke IMO. Half the players in NCAA don't even look like their real life counterpart. Just think about the amount of jersey numbers that change and then the roster makers in the community have to edit. The only confirmed real life counterparts are the guys who have been cover athletes or have been in special game modes like the Heisman challenge thing. I could go on and on.. I wish we could have just got one good next-gen NCAA game. The case couldn't have come to a head at worse time. We're all ready stuck in limbo with current gen consoles because of great games like Grand Theft Auto V, The Last of Us, and soon to be Beyond: Two Souls. Now everyone will have to hang on to consoles for NCAA too..

I can tell you with absolute certainty that O'Bannon was NEVER paid by SC... because he went to UCLA.

He said in Southern California not at Southern California and last I checked ucla is in Southern California

What part of California would you say UCLA is in if not Southern?
