Funny, but I do remember EA saying "2K this" and "2K that" early on...

I see you still believe in the 3-year cycle thing, eh? In 2014 you'll say "Next year they're going to put a great game". They have already fooled you twice (or maybe 5 times?). We'll see...

It's according to how the game is when it's in its final build. If it's at least decent then I'll get it if it goes on sale. Who knows I may even buy it for $20, but not right away. I'm going to wait until some others buy it and see what they say as well as check out gameplay.
I think it's pretty smart actually. I don't know what in the world they've been doing since Live 10, but if they know for sure it's not going to compete with 2k13 they may as well do it like this, and it does offer a chance for fan feedback.
I just don't understand why they didn't stick with the Live 10 engine and just make it better. I had a lot of fun with Live 10. I think 2k11 and 2k12 are quite a bit better but Live 10 wasn't a bad title at all.

So what's your point? I am excited for Live 13 even if it's a $20 game. A little bit of me is excited to know that a AAA title will be coming in the future too. Something wrong with that? I'm still 100% focused on Live 13 and this year. I have no doubts I will be getting a solid game for my $20.

Remember what the EA ad whizzes say: bad press is still good press!

Smart decision by EA? Does this mean Live isn't up to par quality wise? Sound off!

The best one I could find with such short notices.

Just for the record, I can promise you all, even as no EA-supporter, that if EA ever puts a great basketball game, I'm going to pay for it and buy it early on. I really am. Just like many of you I would love to see more than one basketball game every year.

If EA guys ever read this, just to let you know. Quality sells. Marketing can't replace quality. Put a great basketball game, it'll pay off.
