If by "all" you mean all 2K Sports' titles then I agree.

Some of the people on here are amazing...

For the last few days/weeks I've seen +90% of the people on here being negative about and towards EA/NBA LIVE 13.

And now, all off a sudden so many people are praising them for offering a DLC for ONLY (omgggggggggggzzzzzzzzzzzzzz) 20 bucks. It's gonna be arcade, it's limited, the graphics aren't up to par, not gonna be finished etc. And now it's all good? After hours and hours of trash talking, people already love EA again?


WOW, really. Everyone was giving EA **** that they didn't release anything and they still haven't but a 20$ DLC seems to make everyone happy again and still nothing is out yet.

THREE yrs tho

How about they pay me 20$ to play their game and ill tell them if its good or bad.


EA better hold onto that NFL license with a tight grip. EA will take over the boxing & MMA digital world very soon so they will be OK for now. Give us the ESPN EA, not like your gonna use it anytime soon

It is what it is guys.....

The consumer will not be getting "more bang for their buck" in this instance.

They haven't even officially announced the game, and this EA rep announces it's downgrading to a digital release for the same price as a downloadable disk game, shaking my whole body on that one.

Guys gotta start putting things into perspective before making these comments bringing up 2K's 19.99 games from 05. 2K was a developer that had been making consistently quality titles for several years trying to get people to give them a shot against an established household name developer that could release a box of rat feces and still sell mostly because of name recogonition. EA is just trying to avoid the embarrassment of cancelling back to back basketball titles and doing irreparable damage to their relationship with the NBA. Will the game be quality? There is a very, very slim chance. However they aren't doing what they're doing for the reasons 2K did what it did.

Let's say your guarantee is right. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that's still a tad bit under the 50k mark you're looking for.

If EA wants to potentially gain me back as a customer, they should pay me $20 to download Live 13. Im looking forward to the demo, and have paid off 3 copies of the other NBA game already. How bout it EA?

That is all.
