      And it's a sad commentary of the American consumers...

        You know, there is a sad, sad truth to this post. EA, a company largely responsible for the growth of the industry, is now at the head of the industry's contraction to assembly line gaming. Where is Westwood, Origin, Relic, Bioware? Companies that lead and/or broadened genres are now pumping out the same game formulaic games. It's sad that new ideas seem to only come from small, indie houses with limited resources. Don't get me wrong, EA has tried some new ventures, but they devolve into stale amalgamations of known genres.

        Anyway. Sorry. I just had to respond to this as it struck a cord with me. Some for Activision and Nintendo, btw...

          Obviously this isn't true. The genre is doing pretty well even with Live on the sidelines...

          For now.

            Bull. When did MLB 2K cancel weeks before release? I missed that one.

                2K is great at making basketball games and was good at football games like 5 years ago.
                Do you know anything about the development of those titles? Do some research. The fact that those titles ship was an accomplishment.

                  ^no its not. its still similar to 2k12 and 2k11. you just control the dribbling now and the passing is much quicker(which helps the game alot).

                      Been there, and they tried that, TWICE...i belive in 08, 09 EA went ham and tried the strong arm tactics. which is why us guys who were there in 05, can now get a bit of peace in our heart. There is trouble in the EA towers, i just hope they can maintain and keep my Fight night going.

                      just a thought

                        Haha. I remember there was an article about the rookie ratings and I said that I'd be more impressed when the game actually came out, because I played the game until they stopped making it. Anyway there were a decent amount of people crying about people "bashing" Live, where are they now. Now you know why people were "bashing" it.

                          Tsk, Tsk, Tsk. Notice that EA's two most lacking games come from the same studio(Tiburon). I dont know what goes on behind those doors...but its inexcusable...

                            To be fair Live/Elite/whateverthe**** was in the toilet before it got to Tiburon.

                              This went on:

                              “The big thing was building a new culture around this,” said Nick Wlodyka, “NBA Live 13” executive producer. “We needed people who ate, slept and breathed basketball.”

                              That reconstructed culture includes developer huddles breaking out in the hallways of the Tiburon offices at least once per day, and often more frequently than that...
                              NBA Live is the epitome of Cancel Culture..
