WTF!!! EA just signed a 5 year deal making them the sole company allowed to create NFL games. This kills any competition on the market, including from ESPN. This means less choice/higher prices for the consumer.

You are kidding right? Madden is a ginagerous cash cow for EA. They sell millions of copies of it each year.

Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

Re: EA is EVIL!!
I'd just like to mention that I like EA since I get their games for free
If you look at it objectively this is of course an alarming development. EA is gaining way too much power and influnce in the gaming industry.
One of the major German gaming magazines (PC Games) seems to have abandoned all impartiality when it comes to EA games. They gave BFME a score of 93% which seems to be slightly over the top (even if the game really is quite good). Other EA games also tend to get unusually high scores...

EVIL ARTS....
Has a certain ring to it...
Re: EA is EVIL!!
Yeah, like Navaros says, this is just further proof that EA is evil. It also means that without competetion from the likes of ESPN football that EA can spend less each year developing Madden and still sell more games
They're also talking about having a separate "management" NFL game. Wanna bet the they take the Franchise mode out of Madden and put it in their new management game? THen if you wanna play a Franchise on madden you've got to buy both games?
