EA NCAA Football Games no longer available on XBox Marketplace

This is probably of limited interest to anyone perusing this thread at this point, but I thought that it was curious that as of last week, you can no longer purchase this game digitally on Xbox Marketplace.

Slip and fall lawyers walk away with millions. The rest of us lose.

My biggest complaint about the judge was he ruled on what EA Sports can't do but didn't provide a legal path forward for them. It is a death sentence for making a video game. Is it still working its way through the court system or is it settled?

I think it's settled (for now), because I recently read the Supreme Court declined to hear the case.

Anyway, I just think it's interesting that all EA NCAA football games got taken down from the marketplace just recently. I assume some licensing agreement date expired or something to that effect? I sorta wish they would have given some warning, since I probably would have bought the most recent version electronically just to have it, since it's unclear if they'll ever be available again. I have little to no interest in paying a premium for a physical copy at this point.

So even if I already own this game and want to download it now it won't let me? That is wrong. Backbreaker too.

Right now those games are delisted, but if you bought them from Games on Demand you should still be able to download them.

Settings > Account > Your Billing Options > Download History

Scroll down until you find the games and download them from the list. I am in the process of re-downloading the delisted Madden 25, and it seems to be going through, but I will follow up in the morning.

Yeah I've redownloaded things that have been off the market for years just fine multiple times.
