College Players "Want Their Game Back"

[dso122783]

While I don't have a law degree, I'd say it doesn't matter what the players (one lineman from Georgia Tech) say at this point. Ed O and the others have EA so deep into this legal battle, we wont have a game for acouple years if that.

Im dying for a college basketball game. But id much rather 2k made it. NBA live was a joke. NCAA basketball 10 was a step in the right direction..but the game would always freeze and never got patched.

As far as college football. I think Ncaa 17 is possible. I have no hopes for 15 or 16. But hell at this point id settle for a next gen port

It's a real simple process! All EA has to do is draw up contracts with the schools and players before developing the game. The players that want to have their likeness on the game should sign off on it, the ones who don't can be omitted from the game. The contract should states that you are signing this with your knowledge that you are participating in the game and EA and the NCAA aren't obligated to compensate you. I could care less about historic teams but they would have to sign off too. Just my opinion but I bet you would get all FBS teams and players signed on. It's a shame how a popular football game (NCAA) & basketball game (College Hoops) is not on the shelf!! Just let the current players sign off on it!!
