EA listen up!

You guys should buy VC straight up. They are doing there thing but they can't profit a good amount of money that you can. Ya'll got the streets on lock and VC tries so hard but can't knock the hustle, even at $20 (shameful, i know). So all i'm saying is yall should purchase them but have a deal where if ya'll start to slack because of little to no compition (unless 989, Microsoft, or a new company gets busy) Vc can leave. This could work out very well for the football, BASKETBALL, and hockey divisions.


P.s Think about it, and Andrew my bad, if this needs to be moved I understand. :wink:

at the momment i don't see how it would work to benifit both companies. can you explain more. would they still be releasing live and nba2k?
i know ea has the money to get the company but would employees defect just not to work for ea but maybe 989 or even start a new home under microsoft.

Why would VC want to do this? How does it help both companies?

ea canada and vc have very different ways of designing there games, so i dont really see how a merger between the espn brand and the ea brand would help. i'd like it if a game came along that could combine the best aspects of both games, but i doubt it would come from a marriage between the two.

Wussup Brooklyn, represent! Anyway, you're dreaming my brother. They are two totally different companies with two totally different visions, period. I think we have a better chance of seeing Shaq and Kobe get tattooes of each other's names on their arms than this happening.

2 things.

first, this wont ever happen

second, if this did by chance happen we would all lose. the big wigs at VC would be very rich and then the top guys at EA would be even richer. those 2 would make out but we would lose. without compitition the game wont grow properly and we will be left with a crappy game in a couple years.

You maybe right with the Kobe and Shaq Tattoo thing. So i have another possible proposition. How about letting the people who do the graphics for NBA Street just team up with the Live crew since we will still have comp and Live's graphics will bee more beautiful. Plus there will be no need to purchase another team of Dev. since there already within the EA camp.

Pics of NBA street Vol 3. for reference:

Vince Carter: http://www.1up.com/do/slideshow?pager.o ... Id=3133610

You guys can't tell me that the FACES aren't on point, even more than Visual Concepts/ SEGA's NBA 2k games. Holla at me! :wink:

True but i'm think about Xbox 2 and PS 3. I want everthing to be 100% authentic NBA from graphics to Gameplay to extras by then, you know. :lol:

If there were some sort of "NLSC Quote H.O.F." that would be in it.
