NBA Elite Name is History, NBA Live 13 is Coming

Who would have thought EA would be heralded simply for returning the name back to what it was before. Ha - that's crazy.

Considering that EA hasn't put out a NBA game in 2 years, and the fact that they're the only ones putting out a football and hockey game, how are people saying EA will rock every year?

And we're brainwashed as consumers? No, some of us don't have an uncontrollable "Love Jones" for 2K products. We actually think objectively when it comes to products we spend our money on.

Elite was a bad name and I think a lot of us have memories of gaming Live in the 90's on our Sega Genesis or Super Nintendo. lol

But EA hasn't been consistent with there NBA Live series since they brought it to the Next Gen(Current Gen) system, NBA Live 10 was the first success and then what happened they went in a whole different direction and they thrown up a brick. People are hopeful that EA can come through with NBA Live and I would like to see them produce a great game but year in and out the NBA Live community has had that same hope for EA to finally get over the hump but that hasn't happened just yet. This is why I feel they still have a lot of pressure on them...not only to compete with 2K but they have to prove to there fans that they can produce a very good basketball game, they have very little room for error with this years title and since they had a bit more time to work with the title people are going to expect more from them this year than what they have given. Again this is my opinion but I do agree with your 2K statement Czar.

Well said !!! I would hope that the community would approach it with that mindset and keep em honest. But I just feel a ton of good will towards the dev team and the product from all the sites I visit. That is not a bad thing at all but there is an excitement and expectation level that when elite was cancelled I did not think we would see so quickly.

im very intrested in seeing what EA has in store if they drop the ball then i doubt i will play anymore new bball games. 2k burned me too many times. if EA can get the fundamentals of the game balanced, good online, good superstar, dynasty, etc modes right theres no reason this years game cant be good. hopefully they have a way to where they can insert new and old people into the game without patches
