It's just as bad, but they were forced into the position. I know EA bought the rights for the NFL because of Sega's ESPN Football spanking Madden. From Take Two's standpoint if they don't make a move, somebody else will. From a business point of view it makes sense, but it will only hurt gamers in the end. |

With companies now making the move to exclusivity, prepare for a massive race to the legal papers. EA games has the NFL and AFL. Take-Two claimed the MLB for itself. Now all Sega has to do is pick the NHL or FIA - they'd better act quickly, because if they don't move now, someone else will take the spot and send their whole sports department down the drain.
All in all, it's a very, very dirty schoolboy fight, but the fact remains: EA started it. |

Theres a Mario Baseball game coming out
Which actually brings an idea to my mind. As i see it, EA is buying up the exclusive rights to official sports games. But what about the offbeat sports games? I mean ever play Sega Soccer Slam? That was a really fun arcadey soccer game with no real players whatsoever. Do y'all think that we'll see more sports games without real players? |
