Looks Like NBA Live 13 is a Downloadable Game

ok actually after watching that video of gameplay... no thanks not worth $20... yuck... EA calls that basketball? First off Graphically it looks like a wii game. Yikes, then Chris Bosh is crossing over between the legs at the 3 point line? yikes... thats a hot mess

If EA takes that approach with Live this year and it's decent it will bring back fans and people will buy it for it's price tag

Im not sure the NBA will allow EA to release the game at a lower price point than its competitor. I believe it is one of the stipulations that must be met when using the NBA as a license.

This is an interesting point. EA hasn't had a game on the market for 2 years straight. Isn't this a violation of agreement they have with NBA? I wonder how this works?

EA should make a beta with just play now mode and make a feedback thread on here to tweak this game, EA never listens to fans on games that they arent the monopoly. EA can potentially waste Hundreds of millions of dollars releasing this so i say make it free DLC For a few months and track feedback and go from their.

If not then EA will need a stimulus package for their NBA gaming department from here on out.
