SEC, Pac-12, Big Ten Won't License Trademarks in Future Video Games

The game is dead.......I am not going to buy NCAA 15 with a bunch of teams called:

FBS Purple Northwest
FBS Green & Gold
FBS Green & Orange Southeast

Guess this really is the last hooray.

Just wish they would re-release NCAA 14 for the PS4 and XBOX 1 in the fall.

Ha, I guess I was thinking a little broader - as in, re-discovering totally non-sports genres like RPG's, adventure games, etc.

But I agree - sports gaming started a long, inexorable decline toward the dark ages the day the NFL went exclusive. That was the canary in the coal mine, so to speak - signified how big a business sports games were, and then everything that has followed since is just a signpost along the road downhill...

With a college playoff lol and keep the servers going for years. Then we would be good!

Not going to argue, but I for one am not giving up hope for Sports gaming quite yet. It's getting pretty close though =/

I play Madden but not that much, I am not into it as much as this series. I may as well wait at least 12 months or longer after to launch to get a ps4 now. I have a good gaming pc, the money I would have put into buying a ps4 I can use for a new video card now.

Ditto....the one constant with my gaming has been the NCAA game. Everything else was just an aside.

I probably will end up getting a PS4 but with the way things are looking I won't be pre-ordering.

Thankfully I never got rid of my PS2 and all the NCAA games I have with it.

I would normally agree with this sentiment, but in this case, I have to say it's bad karma coming back on EA Sports. They've knowingly put out a shoddy, half-working product for the past several years.

To the point where even a hardcore NCAA football fan like me hasn't bought or have returned the game now for last 2 years. I bought a PS3 mainly for this series, and IF it was up to par, I would be buying a XB1 or PS4 for it as well.

We the consumer aren't missing out on much with this series being canned.
