EA Sports will not publish any college football video game next year, the label said moments ago, citing ongoing litigation brought by current and former college players that threatens to change how all of big-time college sports does business.

"Today I am sad to announce that we will not be publishing a new college football game next year, and we are evaluating our plan for the future of the franchise," Cam Weber, the general manager overseeing the NCAA Football and Madden NFL series. An emotional Weber broke the news 15 minutes ago to an all-hands meeting of both development teams.

Who cares?

Just buy/play NCAA 14. It's not like NCAA 15 would be any different.

You mean the opposite?

Everything that was reported after the dropping of the NCAA name was that they were still going to make a college game just with a new name and changes to conferences/schools that didn't want their name involved.

Now they will probably keep the game at $60. Seriously though just go download an updated roster and play the same game and you won't notice a thing.
