I am not trying to be an EA advocate because I really don't like the company. But, from a business point of view, it would be stupid for them not to buy exclusive rights if they are offered. The organization that offers the exclusive rights is the biggest loser in my opinion. Since there is no

Well, the fact that EA also inked exclusivity deals with NASCAR, FIFA and PGA doesn't completely absolve them from blame. I'm admittedly not as up on the competition for NASCAR and PGA games, but the FIFA lock will certainly keep Konami from pursuing a FIFA license for its Winning Eleven franc

Damn that's slick looking. But why a caribbean site? Is there something about gaming in the caribbean that's different than anywhere else in the world? Just seems odd. Are you tying it in to a local reseller chain or something? On 8/11/05, Vivec <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Oops! > http://www.isl

I made it a point not to buy any Madden games from this point on after EA pulled that exclusive licensing stunt with the NFL and ESPN, and deep-sixed Sega's superior NFL2Kx series. However, the QB vision cone thing sounds like an interesting idea - a rookie or less-talented QB has less of a "s
