NBA Live 13 Preview

Does anyone know if Live 13 will retain the "Elite 11" controls (right-stick for shooting)??? Has this been mentioned anywhere?

I know many here hated it, but personally I thought it was great and added a new dimension to the game. I really hope they offer that control option in Live 13.

It was already stated that they went back to the old right stick controls.

Ok, thanks. Hopefully they will offer the 'Elite 11' controls as an alternative (similar to how "NHL '94" controls is available for the hockey game).

Two years and their objective is still bells and whistles.

I just feel that nba live series is just like the Los Angeles Lakers.... the window has closed. I think the best plan would be to hold off and reboot it for the next gen. Another bad nba game from EA and the live series is finished

I think/hope EA is being quiet with what theyre doing because they dont want any of their ideas leaked out so that they could be copied by the competition. This isnt even what we're gonna see in the demo and that wont be out til at least august. Im hopeful with the final product just because they had so much time to work on the game

ANT was used for NBA Elite 11 as well.

Why is eveyone keeping saying they had 2 years of devolpment when fact is they got rid of the old team except from one person, moved from Canada to Florida. Who knows how long it took them decided what they want and not want, not unlike a sports team who fires their coach and GM the new guy comes in looks around see what he likes and don't like and bring there people and scheme. Before this year I can't remember the last time EA or 2K showed basketball at E3 event. I will give them the benefit of the doubt if only because I want another basketball option.
