Like my first post in this thread says, the decision by the SEC is that EA can't use the conference logo. The game will still have all of the schools and team logos.


That's not the point. There will be no SEC championship game in the Georgia dome with SEC signs and banners every where. You will be playing in some generic named conference that has absolutely no meaning to it. It will kill the experience, period. And you if you disagree, then you are just wrong and either don't play video games in the first place or just are completely ignorant. Plain and simple.

In the soccer world there are two waring Video Games... the FIFA series, which most are familiar with, and the PES Series, which boast better mechanics, realism and deeper careers and have had vastly superior editing and customization to FIFA since the PS2 days...

Why is FIFA still top dog, BECAUSE THEY OWN ALL THE LICENSES!!! PES has only 5 or 6 licensed leagues and can usually only get 4 or 5 Premier League teams, everyone else is generic. PES has only recently made ground thanks to buying rights to the UEFA Champions League (the soccer Super Bowl).

Why are people still buying these games? Haven't the last 4 or so basically been the same game?

I fully understand whats going on and I do play video games. I was just posting what the SEC just posted on twitter. I know it will be a generic conference but in a way EA has been preparing for this by letting gamers create neutral site games as well as creating teams.

The SEC logo thing is a blow but some people thought the SEC schools were going to be left out as well. That's not the case.

Amen. The only bright side to all this is that we could possibly get an SEC game. One can dream..ha
