    I think it's great for EA to make that move..Live is a known name for their basketball series. Lets just hope they get more sim and less arcade or it will be just like it's always been. 2k > Live.

      Looking forward to this. Not only for what live 13 may be but for competition purposes.

        havent bought a ea basketball game since 2k2, always try out their demo's tho. hopefully they can put out a more sim product and drop the gimmicky stuff. 2k has failed in the online aspect maybe Live can take advantage of that. looking forward to new information and eventually trying their demo

          Ofcourse this is great news. Ill admit im not a big basketball guy but competition is everything in video game sports titles and we need competition. Now please end the EA NFL exclusive license. Thats all i ask.

            Why do people want the new game built off Live 10 engine? It was a good game but that engine is old with way too many problems. We don't need another b-ball game with suction and 2 man animations, scripted gameplay is dead.

                  Honestly, the name means nothing unless the game is good. If it's like the past few versions of NBA Live it won't change the fact that the game sucks. HOWEVER, if they actually did some work in the year they took off then maybe they can restore some good to the name they've ruined.

                    Good AND smart move. Someone at EA had enough business acumen to realize that the name NBA Elite would be synonymous with the 'failure' that was NBA Elite 11.

                    And I have said, I still loved the controls in Elite 11. I hope those stayed put (although I did love Live 10's controls except the lack of a consistent steal button) and they properly built on that and the great things from years past...and then added even more.

                    I really hope they worked that team like slaves since Elite 11. Lol. I half joke about that cuz I know how cats in the gaming industry DO have to work long hours many a time to get a final product. I hope, if they did, the final product will be mind blowing...and even if they didn't, I still want my brain matter sizzling in a good way when I get my hands on it.
                    Just cuz you pour syrup on ish....

                      Great news about the name. Anyway, the real news here is that the game is in a playable state, which is to be expected. Apparently Rubio played it too. I wanna see what they got.

                        The last installment of Live that I got my hands on was '06 and it left a pretty foul taste in my mouth, but that's hardly considered to be Live's golden era. Remember some pretty positive things about the Live 10 demo, just hoping they expound upon that formula instead of trying to improve the Elite engine. Either way, competition is always sweet. Here's hoping for a solid Fall.

                          Looks like John Wall and Ricky Rubio have had some time with the game as well.

                            "that captures the future of basketball with NBA Live 13"

                            Hmm I wonder what that means, and what EA has up their sleeve. They didn't add the word "future" in there for no reason.

                                Hopefully some real competition will get 2k back on track. 2k11 was amazing! 2k12 was pretty meh because it was the only game in town.
