    EA Sports Has Already Botched the Handling of NBA Live’s Return

    Having become the underdog after years of eroding the fan base with sub-par releases and the aborted attempt at a reboot EA Sports is attempting a comeback with NBA Live 13. It will be an uphill battle to reestablish credibility and grow sales - one that really can't afford blunders along the way. Despite that

    I hope this Advisory Council is a step in the right direction NBA Live 13 needs to deliver a realistic simulation experience.

      Yeah, I didn't want to seem like an EA ***** but after finding out who these guys were I felt the same way. Nothing against them but... c'mon man...

        Yeah EA botched their resurgence into the spotlight. I hope they clean it up and fast.

          A community event? Yea those benefit Madden and NCAA so much. The botch wasn't in who they invited to the event, it was having the event in the first place.

          If Madden and NCAA are any indication, a community event indicates to me that Tiburon is still focused on promotion over not developing a crap game.

            Note that PastaPadre says "botched" a release... but what they really did was have an essay contest. Truth is, nobody cares. It's just fun to take shots at EA

                After seeing who most of these guys are and the fact that EA has used them before.....I am starting to lose hope in this game. As much as I still have love for live 10, all this propaganda crap EA has been feeding us with the advisory council really pisses me of. Here I thought " hey such a novel idea a game company going to the gamers to make a better game" turns out it was just a PR stunt!
                It's 'Sconnie not wiscy!!!!!

                  I have faith in this one. I'm more excited that there's legitimate competition between two big-time franchises more than anything else.

                      It doesn't come down to hope or faith I just want Ea to make a basketball game because that will make 2k push even more to make a better basketball game also...And we all know the more games to pick from the better.

                        exactly, competition means they strive to make a better product than the opposition. which means good for the consumers, IE us.

                          So there hasn't even been one screenshot released and already the game is garbage. Interesting.

                            I think they haven't released anything because they know people like me are going to pick that thing apart.

                              I feel you. I am a huge basketball fan, but the hoops game I want the most is college back.
