I see they got you already. Show me, you've had since you cancelled E Light to show me something... SHOW ME or just stop with the buzz phrases EA hasnt shown us anything this entire gen... and all they're doing RIGHT NOW is talking and not showing. You're creating an argument against them. You realize this correct? Again... AWFUL track record. Nothing you can defend about the game AT ALL

I thought LIVE 10 was pretty good, and I think a lot would agree. I liked it better than 2K10, which was not a good bb sim. 2K11 -- yes! Great game. 2K12 -- yes, great but nothing to blow you away.

Why is it too much to ask EA to make a bb game "glitch free"? They've had 7 (well actually 8) years to do it. They know the code; they know the game systems limitations. Instead of trying to re-invent and throw in some new modes, why not use it to make a glitch-free game? Same can be said for 2K. I don't want to see players sliding or skating on the court, the ball going through the backboard, or players dunking without getting near the rim.

Physics is the answer to a lot of problems but doesn't solve everything.

I didnt say it was too much to ask.. I said they havent shown they are capable, and all of the things on your list if impossible if it needs to be done this year maybe even next

Amen! EA is so tight lip about Live 13 because they're hoping when the tree falls (Live being delayed/cancelled), no one will hear it.

1. EA does NOT have Live available for preorder on their very own online store: Origin

2. EA Sports does not have Live listed under their online season pass program while the 2013 version of Madden, NCAA, FIFA, NHL and Tiger are ALL listed.

3. EA has not shown any gameplay videos

4. No cover athlete announcement. Nothing except rookie ratings has been announced since E3.

5. Gamestop and Amazon does not have a concrete date set for the game. Amazon just changed the release date of Live from 10/2 to 12/31 over this past weekend.

Could this all be a coincidence? Maybe. The game is 2.5 months away yet we know so little. Doubt is starting to creep in. I guess we will see in the coming days what Live has (not) in store.

Seems like Live is still coming out to me, you ladys need to chill good lord.

I dont know about the whole not coming out thing, there has been no confirmation of that, and the game goes gold in September so you should hear something at least by late august, after football
