Listened to the show - Still balancing between calm hope and skepticism, regarding Live 13. I liked what I heard about Madden. I agreed with Czar and in relation to the larger staff for both Madden and Live, I can only hope that Live can implement a lot in a "1 yr dev cycle" if the blue prints were laid out well in all that pre-production time. Not looking for Live to blow away NBA2K by any stretch of the imagination but I am looking for a great foundation to build on for Live 14, which most likely be a next gen game...

And now that I say that, MAYBE a good chunk of the setup time has been about - Next gen. That time will be here up very soon, my ppl!

i have my doubts about Live like always so hope they prove all of us wrong. 2k specialzes in bball since NFL license is exclusive.

First off... I think they need to seperate themselves from the very thought of NBA E-Lite because there was alot wrong with it from jumpstreet

I don't expect them to make a 3 year game, but they can't come after all of this time as weaksauce and excuses. The standard has been raised to a very high level at this point, akin to going to prison and coming back out, the world has changed.

If they've only had 1 year to work on this game frankly im not necesarily buying into how fresh its going to be and how they plan on standing out from 2k, aside from being not 2k.

Its cool for you guys to have an online game that you can play online and all, but as a solid NBA BASKETBALL GAME.... there is no excuse to release another generic non NBA game....

If we've just waited all of this time for more excuses, EA's biggest mistake is letting a Hockey guy come in and completely screw up the concept of what basketball should be and they'll still be paying for it even this year

You had better believe that, this wont be a day 1 buy for alot of people and its going to be analyzed to death.

After listening to that blog, I can say,"I'm disappointed!"

Building off Elite is going to be catastrophic, again I ask? Why not build off Live 10?

Live 10 was an overall complete game offline with dynamic DNA and the online played great with no lag and overall fun lobbies. I did so many online matches for YouTube.

But this crap, about taking 6 months to salvage, 3 months to find help and blah, blah, is just more excuses....no reason after 2 seasons! Does this game have 1 cycle worth of work done....

We are in the final years of this console, and so far Live 10 was the only solid Live game in the series this generation. That is insulting and pathetic, since little time was spent, I guess this also confirms, there is no time for a NCAA Basketball...

Sad day for fans who have, waited two years for nothing....

Still sitting in my wait and see chair!

Im not a EA fanboy and I just had to ask this question. Do you guys really think everybody at Tiburon was suppose to just stop working on their projects they was already working on to make nba live 13? This is a new team and could be a fresh start for the Live franchise and before they even release the game we have all the cry babies crying already about the time they developed the game.

People around here need to be more realistic and ask yourself what would you have done in a situation like that.

Honestly I think Tiburon chose the best direction for year 1 by using the best data from 6 years back of Live games and keeping the right stuff from Elite so they dont have to rewrite all the code. If they put themselves in a position to fix a lot of the issues of the code they chose to use and have time to add more, Live 13 could be a good game.

I dont see anything that was said in the article or the blog as a excuse. The truth is they are using old and new data so they can give us a game thats not bare.
