Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
Imo, they should release live 13 but retitle it and put it up for freedownload so they can get user input. Yeah, they'll have to put up with flame and troll comments, but its worth it to hear what needs work. Then again, they know what needs work, its pretty much evident in the videos.#dairyfreeComment

EA's a rich company. But maybe the developers have to cope with a relatively small budget anyway? I have no idea why they failed again. This game just looks absolutely awkward and would play even worse - that's why I mentioned the budget aspect. How come they couldn't present anything better than this? I just don't get it...Comment

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
Ugh. What a shame. Looks like I won't be purchasing a basketball game this year.
I wish EA all the best. Hopefully they come back strong next year and actually release a game.Comment

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
NBA Live 13 has been canned, kicked to the curb, canceled, put out to pasture. However you want to put it, NBA Live 13 is no more.
Below is a statement from EA Sports Executive Vice President, Andrew Wilson.

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
seriously all the people who rag on 2k13 sucking, just look at this. This isnt like madden where there is a forced situation to produce just one product and you either buy it or miss out on football. 2k13, for whatever realism it lacks, is still the best game on the market, and its not because other companies arent trying...its because they are failing to meet the same level of gameplay that 2k is releasing....
in this statement EA pretty much says that, they had the graphics gonig, they definetly had the edge in online play...but they feel their gameplay is flawed compared to the competetiion...enough so that they dont even want to release their product for the initial discounted $20...
Elite was cancelled for pretty the same reason, it hyped its game, felt it had the graphics going, the online going, felt the gameplay was alright...then 2k11 released its demo near the same time elite did...and wham....elite's gameplay was eclipsed.
To me this is more of an indication to how well 2k13 truly has come out, as opposed to EA sucking. Im fairly sure EA tried, hell they had even tempered everyones expectations before hand. I, as well as many others were still considering to buy live just for the hell of it, so its not like ea wouldnt have made money. But i dont think its a coincidence that they announced their cancellation of live the week the 2k13 demo was released....
Like i said, this isnt like madden where you are forced to pay for a mediocre product because its the only one out there (2k12 i feel was that), 2k13 is exceptional enough that it was able to force live back to its rebuilding stage...and that is a huge compliment to its (2k13) developmentLol. Every single thing they have done and shown over the past few months pointed towards this happening, and any time any of us brought up the obvious, we were called 2K fanboys or Live haters.
No, our nostrils simply work and we could smell this disaster for what it is; a pile of crap.
It's a sad day for basketball fans, and another blow to this generation of option-less sports genres. That said, the sugar-coating and self-convincing that was going on wasn't any better. This was a clear catastrophe from the beginning.
you both relay my thoughts and feelings toward the subject"on hoping there is a PSN flash sale before Valentine's Day"
Man there are no flashers... now what are we going to do for vd
yea but will they take psn cards

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
I'm not mad at NBA Live, as Ive gotten older and I realize their is more to life than video games. I rather companies wait as long as they need to put out a quality product than to put out some bull crap every year.
I thank Madden needs to follow NBA Live's footsteps, they could use a good 3-4 years off from that trash they call a sim football game.Comment

Quote Andrew Wilson, EA Sports: "This wasn't an easy decision, but it's the right one for our fans. I hope you'll agree when you're able to play the game next year."
Someone is definitely putting his head above the parapet. I will quote him again next year...Comment

When do you know for sure that a game is bad? When the score bug is the nicest thing you spot on the screen...Comment
