NBA Live 13 Gameplay Video - Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

Re: NBA Live 13 Gameplay Video - Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

Wow I can't believe what I just watched. It's sad because I've been playing Live for over 12 years and it's finally come down to this. Best memories and most fun I ever had playing basketball video games was on Live.

I can't believe the nerve of the Live developers. Release that crap of a game Elite, make us wait a plus year, wait late in August to see anything about the game, make the game sound like it's revamped in the game interviews, and now put this Live 08 crap on us?

I was hoping with all the time on their hands we were going to get a game that could compete with 2k. I'm sick of the crappy online servers, body building midgets in baggy jerseys but I guess it's better than floating stick figures that are stiff. The audio and presentation looked/sounded great but that gameplay footage....wow. Even if it's not the final product, I don't see what they can do after leaking this garbage. Sigh.

Man they cant be pleased at all with how this game is looking... Jump shots are weird, movement is weird, dribbling is weird, ball mechanics, passing etc... Man I feel sorry for Live....

I think the footage that we are seeing is from a early build.

Early build or not, this is atrocious and it's clear why EA didn't release anything but screenshots. That is close to being as bad as NBA Elite.

Re: NBA Live 13 Gameplay Video - Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

the game is just moving too fast in my opinion, I'm not worried about the sliding, that should be fixed before it is released. There are A LOT of negatives in this video, but it is an early build, so hopefully a lot of these things get fixed. We all knew 2k would blow this game out of the water anyway, so there's no need in comparing them in my eyes.

Exactly.
I personally always get both (when there were 2 games on the market), so comparing isn't something I even bother doing.
However I always hope that both can deliver a good experience.
I went back and played Live 10 and realised there were things I liked about that game, but I think it's certain gameplay elements that ruin the experience even if it's just slightly.

If you notice when they are picking teams it says (11-12) This is def a early build, not even close to todays version. I hope they off that arcade sliding non sense.

Yeah the presentation is definitely amazing!

The commentary however sounds really amateur. Its like someone just mixed words from here and there.

Gameplay wise, still looks like the same as NBA 09. Hoping there is a demo for this as a hands on impression will allow us to have a more critical opinion.

In all honesty. How much better could the game get from whatever build this is to what you'd by at the store ?

I'd bet you it be the same thing from this video to demo to retail copy.

this game looks like nba 09 from sony. just pure bad!! sliding. no signature anything. unrealistic movements. it felt very nba live 2000.


i wonder how many guys over in the 2k studio saw this and just broke out laughing saying "this is supposed to steal sales from our game?" haha yea we are really worried now!

ea needs to just scrap nba live. and use those resources towards madden and ncaa. just saying

What year was last year? Did last years NBA Season start in 2011 or 2012? Ok, so last years season was 2011-2012, explaining the 11-12 record above the team name.

I will say that I liked the presentation elements. The crowd, arena music, ESPN score ticker, the 3D icons on the team select screen, and Jeff Van Gundy. It's clear, though, that they are rebuilding this game and they still have a ways to go before it can be a worthy competitor.

2 years bruh? 2 years and that's what they release?

S.M.D.H.

I for one am glad they're actually going to release something. But hot damn..that is not a next generation videogame in no sense of the word.

They spent 1,000 man hours on faces but yet last year's cover athlete Kevin Durant is standing there with a $10 bald fade from Super Cuts.

I'll give them ONE thing- floor spacing. It's superb.

But my goodness..that is an embarassment. Is Scott O'Gallagher really slapping his name on this?

No Sig nothing.
SMH@ Russell Westbrook's shot release.
@ KD's push shot.
@ the ball splashing through the net.
@ the sound of the rims.
@ that off ball movement. I'd rather you go back to NBA Live 2005's synchronized mo-capping if it's going to look this bad!

For the love of videogames...I urge EA to release this game only to give people and option. For that reason only. But please...please do not slap us in the face by putting a $60 price tag on it.

These dudes should really be ashamed of themselves. They need all hands on deck for '14. That video I just watched was an abomination for a videogame release in 2012.
