EA Handball game made from NBA Live

[jubigala]

I am a big fan of Handball (Team Handball)

It would be great if a computer game of this could be made.

EA make all kinds of sports.. Ice Hockey, American Football, Baseball etc..

But i believe they have over looked a major one.. Handball.

This game is massive in Europe, and although i suggested the idea to EA and Acclaim, they cannot even read my ideas. Something to do with copyright laws.

So.. i thought.. would it be possible to re-write the NBA Live game engine?

Elements of NFL would be very handy, but i'm not usre how i would code a game engine.

I just want to know if anyone else would like to see Handball as a EA game.

And i don't know a better set of patchers anywhere else than the guys and gals on the NBA Live forums.

It'd take a lot of work, but would it be possible?

Anyone interested, please reply.

um....a handball game would never catch on, i'm afraid, it's basically PONG. if there was more to do than hitting a ball off of a wall, i could see it. but....nobody is going to pay 50 bucks to hit a ball of a wall

um, no. i think he's talking about the other, a wee-bit more popular kind of handball, to the uninformed person a cross between basketball and soccer. 2 teams, 6 a-side. Pretty brutal at times. In some european countries more popular than basketball, hell, even soccer.


Anyway, I doubt EA would make a handball game, it's not really popular outside of europe, and what kind of tournament would it have? only international play is really fun to watch, maybe champion country teams too... regional leagues nobody really cares about.

oh...i've never heard of that. the only handball i've ever heard of is 1 or 2 guys whacking a ball against a wall.

lol... i parked it outside my friend's house and went inside. After about 10 minutes his pot-head neighbor comes to the door and says someone's car is on fire. I walk outside and I was like "holy shit" cuz there were flames coming out of the hood. I was just speechless... too make a long story short, by the time the firefighters got there, it was too late to be saved.
