Why EA Sports Should Bring Back A College Basketball Game

As the College Basketball season begins to roll around, fans everywhere are getting more and more anxious. College basketball season is one the greatest times of the year for any sports fan. But for many people, one problem exists--there is no video game.

I remember back a few years ago, playing NCAA March Madness 2005. The intro gave me chills every time. Playing with my favorite team, University of Illinois, with my favorite players. I was only about 8 or 9 years old at the time, so being able to play with my favorite team was amazing.

But now, every year when this time rolls around, millions of video game and college basketball lovers have to deal with the fact that there is no game we can play.

From Tim Duncan being on the cover of NCAA March Madness 98 to Blake Griffin being on the cover of NCAA Basketball 10, we simply miss the chance to play a college basketball video game.

I think I can speak for everyone when I say,  BRING BACK A COLLEGE BASKETBALL VIDEO GAME!

Whether you're a fan of Illinois, Kentucky, UCLA, or Valporaiso, don't you wish you could play with your favorite team again?

EA Sports cited lack of sales and lawsuits because of how players were portrayed in the game as reasons they cancelled the series, among other things.

Over the past few years, we haven't gotten a chance to play with guys like Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, Jimmer Fredette, or Meyers Leonard. It is really disappointing, as a fan and gamer.

From a player perspective, I bet players wish they could play with themselves in the game as well. Especially ones that know they don't have much of a chance to make it to the NBA.

The excitement of March Madness and the entire college basketball season and atmosphere put into a video game is exciting. It was back in 2005, and still is now.

There is still a college football game and there was even a college baseball game a few years ago. So where is the basketball?
