    I don't believe EA doesn't have any competent employees who can produce a competent basketball video game. What the hell is wrong there?!
    NBA

      Their approach. You guys know what happened to The Old Republic by Bioware? EA thought if you emulate a successful MMO(WoW) then you will have the same success. Absolutely wrong. And now they are paying the hefty price of that oversight.

      Same approach EA Tiburon has done. Emulate NBA 2K for success. WRONG.

      Use the comparison of NFL 2K and Madden. Two games light years apart. They weren't trying to emulate each other, one clearly had the winning formula while the other tried to copy.

      If EA spent more time utilizing creative and intelligent minds to make their big decisions, they would know that NBA Live needs a complete rehauling in the NBA SIM space, something that we haven't seen before. That involves Presentation, Gameplay, Front End etc... It needs to be presented as something extraordinary. However, hardware limitations on current gen consoles prevent that. Which is why we will not see anything spectacular from Live 13'. Live 15', if it's still in business, will excite.

        How have you come to the conclusion that EA is trying to emulate 2K when they have not released any info whatsoever on Live 13?

        All of those things that you mentioned that EA needs to do...they are claiming that they have done. They just have not shown it...if in fact they are telling the truth (which is hard to believe because their credibility is shot right now).

          All I know is EA Sports is all talk at the moment and no action. I hope they will come correct this year they don't have another choice but to give fans a solid product.

            They have another choice: not releasing a rushed, subpar joke of a game for $60.

              man it feels like it, we have nothing even to really base our opinions off of other than EA's lack of information

                iPodKingCarter apparently had some leaked footage, but it was taken down.

                EDIT: Here's 10 minutes of leaked gameplay from Kotaku. If I'm not allowed to be posting this, I'll delete it. http://kotaku.com/5936592/it-lives-h...om-nba-live-13
