they say they are gonna improve the game every year. With no competition allowed (monopolies are legal now in the US obviously), why would they take the time to improve this game? Once a game company goes full corporate, game quality drops big time but sales increase.

You know signing a licensing agreement and a monopoly are not even close to the same thing right? It's bad for football gamers yes but it's not close to a monopoly.

Where is the disconnect between Madden and monopoly?

The NFL put their game up to be exclusive all companies had the right to bid on it, EA chose to pay the most. It would be like saying the NFL has a monopoly with Directv. All of the exclusive deals make the NFL more money and hurt competition but they also aren't monopolies.

I guess I don't understand how 1 company has exclusive rights to supply a product isn't a monopoly. That's like the very definition of the word.

All sports leagues can sign exclusive rights to 1 company if they choose to. Matter of fact 2k just had an exclusive deal for baseball but the reason the show existed is because in those deals the console producer could also make a game.

So start praying for microsoft or sony football I guess. Truth be told if they put it up for exclusive license again, EA will win it again. No company in their right mind is gonna pay huge money to outbid EA and then have to start from scratch on a series they haven't touched in years.
