you have to realize just because Soccer isn't a big sport in the US doesn't mean it isn't popular in other countries across the world. Soccer games are one of the top selling sports games in Europe while Lacrosse is slowly growing over to the West Coast from the East Coast and becoming more popular I still can't see the game selling many copies
There was one made for Playstation 1! I can't remember what it was called, or who made it, but it was an arcade-style lacrosse game. It was box lacrosse if that makes any difference. I never played it though, so I couldn't tell you how bad it was.
But yeah, a new one could be an amazing game if some effort was put into it!Â
my friend and i talked about this a couple years ago and thought it would be a good idea and would sell. But we also concluded that we live in the middle of Lacrosse country (maryland) and were in college at the time (University of Maryland) watching the lacrosse championship on television and that our opinions may be skewed in relation to the rest of the country. I still think it would be interesting
if EA sports can create a soccer game or hockey game why not corner the Lacrosse niche.

Are you seriously trying to say football(soccer) is a niche market is that a p*** take because its only the biggest sport in the world and by some way at that with games like Fifa and Pro Evo guaranteed to sell millions every year.
I believe it would be a relatively popular game. Lacrosse is one of the the nations fastes growing sports. Other sports people, namely hockey/ soccer gamers may also find it to be appealing. I dont believe it will be as popular as the four major sports, but look at some of the games that are produced now. you have card games, pool games, bowling, all these games are targeting specific audiences why not lacrosse?
I agree Soccer was not as popular a sport as football, or hockey. But 15 years ago soccer didi not exsist in this country, and although it is still relitively small it is growing. One could even argue soccer video games has contibuted to this increased interest.

I'm American and I agree with that!!! LaCrosse will NEVER be anything like soccer (futbol) or even football for that matter! Not that it's not a cool sport but it doesn't warrant its own game.
Im sure the gameplay would be great. But if EA made it would be too expense and not worth it's value therefore not many people would buy it and EA would lost a lot of money. It is a risk no one is willing to take.
Just like everyone else said, it wouldn't be popular enough. I myself would like to see a college hockey game made, but it to isn't popular enough to be made.
