Can you name one player in the Arena Football league? I can't. I can't even name a team. License or no license this game will never make it. Matter of they tried it already and it didn't take off...

Not off the top of my head, no.

I think one problem is that people have got used to Madden being the only football title, and anything else failing that hey now assume that no other football game is possible.

Re: Vision Casting: How an AFL Game Could Succeed

I don't see how a AFL game would succeed but I think those things could be applied to make a CFL game successful.

I'd watch the AFL if they let the LB roam around freely.

I think for this game to succeed we'd have to see the graphics of an EA game, the physics engine of Backbreaker, and the gameplay of All Pro 2K.

This game would have to focus on realism. You can't take short cuts. Real arenas, real players, real equipment.

Presentation would have to be a strong point too IMO. I'm not sure who they could get in the booth but it has to be well thought out and planned as well as fresh and not robotic.

I think this game could work but A LOT of work would have to be put into it to appeal to the casual folks. The die hard, open minded football fans would have no problem buying something fresh..

I'm not sure there'd be a lot of difference in terms of the market size for such games, except in Canada obviously.

I believe a game such as this or one containing the CFL heck even the UFL could work and I would try each one if they made the game fun. Competition breeds excellence gentlemen and ladies

Competition is good for sure, but it doesn't have to be the be all and end all of things. As long as the developers look at things the right way a successful game could be made. Of course that might be easier said than done, but it's true in theory.
