According to IGN 2K Sports apparently isn’t totally out of the picture when it comes to releasing the sports games.
Competition is coming back in 2007, and that means two things.
2K fans need to brush up on historical players (how can you play a game with legends if you can’t tell Steve Young from Steve Bono?). And EA Sports is going to come out blazing with new features in Madden to try and hold off the throwback phenomenon Visual Concepts will finally announce sometime after the new year.
I have no idea what the 2K game will be called, look like, or feature beyond historical players, but I can tell you this, the surprising (I would even say shocking) sales numbers of Blitz: The League prove that the market is ready for some football outside of Madden.
I’m personally a fan of 2K Sports, especially their football game. whether this is true or not, this rumor could be enough to bring Madden up a notch.
