First off nice ninja edit, your spin doctoring skills are top notch. I am glad however you changed your response because calling someone condescending while being condescending is laughable. Nice jab with the character flaw comment however that totally makes your point valid and lets everyone know your awesome, two birds with one stone! This new post is a much better attempt at trying to prove your point.

Lets jump back to your post and see how your assumptions came from the NFL exclusivity(in an NHL thread of course)

Nope no NFL there......you do however state that the games progress faster before EA had sole rights of the NHL game. Since EA does not have or did not have sole rights of the NHL how do you think that makes your argument look? You stated it as fact and I corrected you that it was wrong. Your whole arguement was based on the exclusivity of the NHL franchisee which doesn't exist, spin doctoring it to the NFL is a sad attempt at salvaging.

NFL there? Nope not there either.
NHL making more money? they do license to other game studios like THQ. Again for now the second time in one thread you are wrong this only further makes your argument baseless. Lets dig a bit further here.

NFL - Currently EA sole license, consistency voted and reviewed as of of the top sports games. 1 license 1 good franchise. 2k Sports did make a good football game.. for 1 year...back in 05.....and that's the hill you decide to die on?

NBA - Multiple Licenses, 1 good franchise in NBA2K and several mediocre franchises (EA's offerings are terrible as are THQ's)

MLB - EA and 2K had licenses at different times, 1 good franchise in The Show and several mediocre showings from 2K sports over the years.

NHL - NO LICENSE, 2K sports offerings were so bad that they stopped making the game. It had nothing to do with exclusivity. Bottom Line, 1 good franchise several mediocre (2K sports, THQ etc)

FIFA - EA holds the License and sets the bar with FIFA everyone else makes sad attempts. Outcome - 1 License, 1 good franchise, several mediocre.

Awww but I am wrong, Please explain? You do understand that I have absolutely no issues with being wrong right? I applaud people teaching me things I do not know which is why I specifically wrote "correct me if im wrong" in my post. I do know that there are millions of people on this earth who are more knowledgeable then myself on millions of topics. I am ok with that, your passive aggressive posts show you are not.
