Well, a bad history is a bad history.... ESPN Sports is a terrible licence. I'm not saying the game is going to be bad, but the title will most likely push gamers away (like, ones who don't look at reviews). If they think ESPN will be a selling point they are sadly mistaken.

I'm not trying the games will be bad (which I think they will be anyway, just not sayin it ) I just don't see this helping Sega's situation. EA has stuck with "EA Sports" for over 10 years, and "Madden"... and it grows every year because everybody knows what to look for on the shelves.

Hopfully they don't drop the "Sega Sports" name... I liked the "2kX" game name too, but meh.
