NBA Live 13 Preview

[fearwhatnow]

I hope I'm wrong but I feel that the build Mr.Noah saw was even worse and simply he was shocked from what he saw.I fear that EA is heading towards another cancellation of their bball videogame..

im just surprised that no dev for the game has said or responded to anything here, the other basketball forum, their dev is responding,

What's good family. We will be talking about this review on friday if you want to join in the conversation. I have not had hands on with this yet for the person who asked.

One thing to keep in mind is that with their ANT system they can make changes really fast. This early in a dev cycle they could have huge chunks of the game that just weren't ready to show. So that COULD combine to make things seem a lot worse than it is.

For certain they should be ahead of where they are. Meaning all pieces should be able to be inserted in the game for basic gameplay to look passable in June. However with the tech they are using and only being 60% they game could possible look much better than it does.

HOWEVER this is EA and there is no telling if they have the time to put in 40% if their changes. So I am in the wait and see camp.

Unfortunately for EA we have heard this all before even right up into the cancellation of their last game.

Only time will tell if they got caught showing too early or If in fact the writing is on the wall.

This game will seal the ultimate end of the "NBA Live" series. I'm almost 100% sure about that...

Trust me I want this game to succed but come on every preview so far has said the gameplay looks terrible, the only thing good bout the screen shots where the faces. I hope they shock us in the coming months but I highly dout it.

I think the writing is on the wall Czar. this whole process is the exact same thing we've gone through with Delete 13 to a tee. Devs showing what they wanna show... Talking about spending hundreds of hours of head modeling, someone they know playing NCAA ball etc. It wouldnt surprise me to see this game get canned for good, because theyve want to give us their vision and not what us gamers have been asking for..

I think both the NBA Live & NBA 2K teams released their info on their games too early at E3 from a pre-alpha build standpoint & that they should have waited until the games were more polished. I'm still hopefull since these NBA Live 13 screenshots that been revealed are not even on the ea sports nba live website so they may not be final. People are letdown from both games by what they saw from E3 that was pre-alpha I think we should wait until the upcoming months to make judgements.
