NBA Live 13 Will NOT be Shown Tomorrow, When Will It?

For Elite all they did was talk, saying things like "This game is going to be the evolution of basketball games", "There will be unprecedented control", "We're not just adding more animations (clearly taking shots at 2k) that lock you in and take away control, our system is organic and allows full control at all times". And then the demo dropped and it seemed like everything positive they had with Live10 (which is arguably the best live game of all time) was gone. Maybe, just maybe the strategy is to keep quite, don't speak or say too much, take a modest approach and let the game speak for itself. The only problem is that their competitor 2k, which is already king when it comes to basketball games, has barely shown anything themselves. I'm thinking that 2k is just waiting for EA to make a move so that any kind of hype that Live can build, 2k will kill it once they show off their game.

I have no clue why people keep saying this. 2K is not sitting around waiting for Live to do something to make a move. 2K is on they're normal marketing schedule. Show the game at E3, give a little taste, throughout June and July get the cover guys out there and make a few announcements or two with the majority of gameplay stuff and insights kicking up around Gamescom time. The King of the Genre is not going to sit around waiting for underlings before he goes about his business.

I feel like for 2k11 and 2k12 the hype started building a little earlier than it did this year...maybe I was just more excited for those games than this one. You are right though, 2k usually starts releasing gameplay info and screens at the end of july early august and typically it starts with some kind of preview about new features. so if we get something in a week or 2 they are right on schedule.

Different studio, different ways of doing things. That really helped Elite become a good game right? Releasing us videos.

this season isn't about 2k this season is about can ea put out a soild basketball.i expect a soild fun game from 2k better of the same so to speak. as far as live 13 goes he who does not speak as much to say. with silence ea got the media & the basketball gaming community eyes on them. know ea need to do it get live 13 ready then strike....if they show of nba live 13 somtime later this summer the preview must better then the showing at e3.... i could be wrong tho....

I'm guessing this is where they were going to show off NBA Live but opted not to...I'm only watching because I want to see Armored Kill for BF3
