It also goes hand in hand in general, the market for sports games is not there with PC gamers. It really has nothing to do with the machines themselves, and you WILL see a licensed football game for PC in the next 2 years.

PC will never see a NFL game:

The NFL-video game monopoly isn't going away. The "Madden" deal ends this year, but the NFL Players Association representatives have all but promised they'll continue to deal with one company. "Madden NFL 25," however, does offer some positive signs for the future. More than any other time in the last decade, this feels like a game made by people feeling a fire on their heels.

I really hope this is nto the case, for console and PC both.

Allowing EA to turn out the same basic game year after year, is not a way to encourage making a better NFL game.

Could not agree more

The only reason I even own consoles anymore are for exclusives. I hadn't turned on my 360 in probably close to a year before GTA V was released. I'll probably buy one of the new machines when either Halo or Final Fantasy 15 come out, but in the meantime I'll be playing all of the "next-gen" games on my PC with my trusty controller @ 1080p/60+ FPS.

Curious to see how long it will take to come up with viable XBone/PS4 emulators given the new architectures.

Same way, I had to blow dust off my 360 in my closet before I could play gta V, and even then I still gave up on it because the performance and control was utter shit, and at every corner I said 'X would be better on PC, Y would be better on PC'
