I'm looking forward to seeing the return of EA's Basketball (NBA) title. I hope that they have created an NBA simulation experience that will be enjoyable as well as realistic for SIM players.

I am giving Madden 13 the title of make or break for the series this generation. No excuses, just results. The game needs to be miles ahead of any other Madden (or any other NFL Simulation before it) this generation that we have played. That means Presentation, commentary, gameplay...the whole package. If not it will be considered a bust. (Non-exclusive licensing maybe?)

I hope that NBA 2K13 can raise the bar again as they did with 2K11 yet, polish some of the core gameplay mechanics and correct the issues that have long plagued the series (ie Unintelligent teammate AI)

I think NCAA 13 is in the same category as Madden as well....so it should be a interesting year and I definitely have my eyes on EA Sports! Deliver!
