Should NBA Live Pull a 2K5
 
And sell NBA Live 15 for $19.99, lets be real, no matter how good Live 15 is no one is going to pay $59.99 for it when NBA 2K15 is sitting on the shelf next to it. I say they do what NFL ESPN 2K5 did back in 2004 and sell their game for $19.99 just to get people to play it.
Take a loss this year and hope to make up for it in the following years. If Live 15 is truly a quality game and they sell it for $19.99 this year to get it in more peoples hand, trust me, the next year those people will pay full price for it. Their is no way they can ever catch up to NBA 2K selling this game at full price just like 2K Sports realized they could never catch up to Madden selling their game at full price.

I would like to see it, and I'm going to try the trial, but I'm hoping EA can convince me to buy both.

Won't happen. NBA wouldn't allow it. Why you think we only got one nfl game?

The NBA gets their money off the top right? And EA is the one taking the risk correct?

Live needs to do something drastic if they wanna be back on top again. They are never going to do that by going blow for blow with NBA 2K (unless NBA 2K seriously drops the ball along the way.) the best way to go about this is to get the game into as many people hands as possible.

To be completely honest with you, a 20$ price tag would be enough to entice me to grab the game. Especially in light of one of the developers comments about Live 14, which came off to me as admitting that it was a essentially a beta. I can accept that, but I'm not paying 60$ for one when I have NBA2K sitting right next to it on the shelf. At this point Live 15 is a no-go. But the demo/trial could change that for me if the game is tightened up significantly. I know about no editing and that little has been done with Dynasty, so the gameplay absolutely has to be on point for me now. We'll see soon enough.
