I almost crap my pants in anticipation that the "NFL" would have been included in that sentence. lol

I did the same thing, I had to read it over a second time.

How will proof of purchases work?

Settled out of court, both sides negotiated.

Be of good cheer my friend, there was no need to include the NFL exclusive because EA ain't renewing that one anyway. #http://www.operationsports.com/forums/madden-nfl-football/530621-beware-ides-march-nfl-exclusive-license.html

I don't think it's sad at all. I don't see them renewing the NFL license. They don't even want to be put anywhere near a legal situation with that. Not to mention all the money they lost with it in the first place.

i hope the settlement goes in the favor of the consumer and i hope 2k jump all over this and start making college games that would be awesome and a start toward making NFL games for 2k
