NBA Live 13 Gameplay Video - Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

[Kobe321]

if Ea Sports say is truth we can find a better product than this? Really i dont think they have cancelled a videogame and they take 2 YEARS to make a competition to 2k? No guys the gameplay is really poor .But I keep faith to EA and i wanna to try the demo to decide to the best basketball game. So guys what you think

I have a hard time believing EA would develop a half-a__ basketball sim. Don't trust this video. Probably a smoke screen of sorts. That said, it's killing me on the status of it. 2K13 has over a dozen screen shots and a few videos. At this point, nothing about the game, so I am presuming it will be delayed. Until I hear it from EA, do not feel like they are going to cancel it.

That sentence about having a hard time believing EA would develop a half-a_ basketball sim is definitely sarcasm. I thought you were serious until that sentence. The "smoke screen" part was funny as well.

Another company could always come along and start a new nba franchise if EA drops out of the game.

You're preaching to the choir.

It doesn't matter if 2k keeps trying to improve or not - without competition there is a lack of innovation. Simply because all it takes is one simple feature or control scheme that someone hadn't thought of before to create something new and fresh. The more players in the game, the more chance this will happen.

You have a solid point, but there has to be a better way to word that. Live hasn't been competition for 2K for quite some time now and we've seen innovation. We've seen new things. Saying it like that makes it seem like the other guys are just sitting around doing nothing or something.

I think at this point 2K is comparing themselves to MLB The Show. Lol

I could be wrong but I remember reading articles of them mentioning that game in the past. I dont think I ever heard those guys mention Live unless its Mike Wang comparing.

Edit- I believe that is why we have the presentation we have now in 2k because they liked what The Show was doing in that category.

I wouldn't say Live hasn't been competition for quite some time. 2k actually took the isomotion feature that was in Live. 2k probably has re-done it and made it better, but it was still a Live feature. Live had a couple things going for the series in '10, but it was scrapped. I don't think Live would be leading the industry today, but I think they'd be far better off if they never started all over. Another thing, Elite was bragging about their real time physics, which never panned out really, the next year, 2k introduces real time physics.

Once again, 2k is the premier basketball game, and will be for the rest of this generation. Hopefully Live can get going again somewhat, because like Pared said, the more companies making a specific game, there's more ideas or features that can be implemented.

At this point I don't see why EA won't just put out a full fledged arcade style game. Make it fun.
Make it appear to look like a sim from a casual fans perspective. It would be nice if EA expanded and improved upon Live 07's control scheme IMO.
