Link??

I dont think you are very accurate at all

They just said theyre trying to get into beta... after 2 years thats ridiculous

I dont know if they'll release or not but lets not act like people dont have any reason for concern in any area

[Muzyk23]

And people were laughing when some of us here were ridiculing the fact that the game was 60% complete.


The process of delivering a beta version to the users is called beta release and this is typically the first time that the software is available outside of the organization that developed it.

What did EA say in 2010 when that game got cancelled?? Had Kevin Currant looking like damn fool in those interviews knowing the game looked like a pile baby poop. Why release a game in beta only to lose money? Beta is not going to stand a chance with NBA2K13

EA should only i mean only market the game when the game is ready 4 the community. Cuz that was that was the mistake ea made wit elite 11 there where hyping a product that clearly wasn't ready to be shown nor released. I believe EA not goin to show nba live 13 till they believe the game is ready to be shown to a community that ready don't believe in them. showing anything least then a soild product is stupid. But in Silence EA got the community attention regradless of the negative feedback it bring. But at the same time Support or haters both want to see NBA LIVE 13. I believe that the silence is a new market stragery. i could be wrong....but idk

I've been thinking about that interesting supposed tweet a couple weeks ago from dude from EA saying they're doing something a bit unconventional for them wit marketing for game. Vagueness and smoke could very well be it. Remember, 2k was known for being extremely quiet about their game until recent yrs.

We dont even know much about 2K besides j being the executive producer and guitar hero slam dunk contest. So just take it easy, calm down. I know EA has more on the line maybe that why they not rushing to show the game off yet. Just give them till september.

They can throw LeBron saying "we're not gonna beat 2k in 1 year. Not in 1, not in 2, not in 3..." and then the words "3 YEAR PLAN" on a big screen... At this point, laugh at themselves can be a good start...

I'm sure they have an "ace" up their sleeve and when the time is right an announcement will be made. In the meantime, create "buzz" by keeping everyone guessing if or not the game will even be released and what exactly is being hidden. Reverse marketing at it's finest and the masses are eating it up. This is getting better and better. Again, THANK YOU EA!!!!

We should be happy that these companies decide to even show us gameplay months before the game releases. If EA was to release a video tomorrow in one world, and released the same video 2 days before release in another world, would it really change your mind on buying or not? Either way, some people will buy a game on ratings, some will buy it because of the name. I guarantee one person on OS is going to buy Live 13 if it releases and will have an opinion. No need to hit the panic button because personally, it's not important in my life, no game is. When EA releases some videos or information it will be exciting, but until then, let's just stop speculating about delays or cancellations. When EA says they are canceling, it's done. We can speculate all we want, but it's just going to create frustration among posters. Everyone is going to have mixed reactions on this game, no matter what. It happens for every game. What people fail to realize is that EA said they are taking bits out of Elite, which is the physics and building on Live '10. If they can update Live '10 with the physics and better player movement, they could release a passable game. I hope EA releases information soon because I'm excited to see what the competition is going to be like this year, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. Whatever happens, we'll have a decent game to fall back on in 2k13. It's not like football where if the games bad, we're doomed. Relax and stay patient. Be happy EA isn't coming out saying they have huge announcements and crazy hype tactics. In my opinion, I'd rather have that than what 2k did with the Jay Z announcement, which has turned out to be a huge let down in my opinion. EA will release information when they're ready. As for the game not being in a beta state yet, I hardly buy that. Many games are released as betas and have minimal problems. Many sports games are released sort of as a beta, like NCAA Football. Beta is just a term used as "pre-patched" in my opinion and less polished.

Big shout out to you guys. Thank you. This has been everything I hoped it would be. Keep it coming please.

Seriously people need to chill out... All the previews have stated the graphics, controls and espn presentation look good. It's the animations and contextual stuff that needs work and there is still time.
