2K Coming Back To Boxing? Floyd Mayweather Boxing Game, Should EA Be Worried HHGS 9/18/11

P.S to those who don't know, Visual Concepts didn't make Prizefighter. 2K used Venom Games Inc. (Rocky Games series)

2k back to makin a boxing game sounds like a brilliant idea to completely wash easports out of the map.

If they're as serious about boxing as they are about NBA2K, I'm excited and EA better be worried. We all know they've nearly put EA out of business with the NBA. I wish the NFL would drop the exclusive deal with Madden because it's sucked ever since NFL2K went out of business.

People bring up NBA2k reason why a NFL2k game would be so awesome. But keep in mind that perhaps NBA2k is so good because no resources are being devoted to an NFL game during development. But maybe a boxing game would work since it would be on a bi-yearly sched.

I'm lazy and don't feel like confirming his claims regarding early information about Tekken-Street Fighter. Is that true?
If so, perhaps the guy does have a few sources here or there.

Still, for all we know, this is 100% bull. Or perhaps it's only at the planning stages without one line of code being written.

I'm not getting my hopes up and will take this information for what it is.

But if this were to become reality, some of the things he speaks about are really cool.
Having your own 24/7 show, dynamic and organic commentary, HBO, etc.

Seeing how deep and involved NBA's My Player is, you can see what they could do for boxing.

But they'd have to get Mayweather's name on the game. No question. I don't think there's room for 2 boxing gams, so you need a big name to promote your game.
Everyone, even non-boxing fans, know Mayweather.
That's the right thing for 2K to do if they're going to produce another boxing game.

Hopefully, if this is true, we'll get more details about this further down the road.

this guy is ok . He has connections in the gaming industry. I have been bugging him to ask 2K for nearly a year about a boxing game.
