Honest for the short term the loss of money will somewhat hurt them for a while. But if they fix all the problems they are having with it right now and improve it. It will be good for them in the long run money wise for the fans of NBA elite.

I hope this doesn't fall on the devs. It was obvious they were put in a difficult spot - completely rebuilding an entire basketball engine in the span of a few months. I'm sure they did the best they could all things considered. I'd hate to see those guys lose their jobs over this.

Agreed. I feel badly for the dev team. Blame this one squarely on the EA brass and their complete lack of direction and planning.

I donīt want to question this information, but ask yourself a question

- Do you think the EA heads (I AM TALKING ABOUT EA) would prefer losing 60M then selling a crappy game (for me the game is not crappy)??????

EA is all about money and profit, I could see them lose 10M in a operation to save the reputation of fifa/NHL or even Madden, there is NO WAY they decide to lose 60M to save a name of a franchise that they treated like trash in the last few years (for me live7elite are the same franchise despite different names)
