NBA Live 13 a $20 Digital Release This October?

[artmind]

EA love money, giv'em 20$ for this trash... Only fools are buying trash games.
I decide to buy only NHL 13 this year from EA sport, nothing more.

As long as you buy trash games like Fifa, NBA Live, NFL Madden, the likelihood of the same **** next year increases with the geometric progression.

Live 10 came out oct 2009 when production of elite was supposed to begin

Wow. I guess by now since there has been nothing on NBA LIVE 13, it would seem like that's the case to release it as a download. I won't buy it judging from those early screenshots and horrible video (if I'm going to spend $$ it will be toward 2K13). But even if there were planning a downloadable version about a month away, why not give customers previews? Also, wonder what happened with the development of LIVE 13? EA has poorly mismanaged this, which is a bit odd, knowing how thoroughly they develop games in the past. My reasoning is it's because of "market share" 2K has over EA at this point. They probably got to mid-June and thought there was no way LIVE 13 could recoup their costs for development. That said, all EA had to do was revamp LIVE 10 and tweak a few things and I think people would have bought it. Likely wouldn't be as good as 2K, but still ... at least you're offering customers an alternative if they get tired of 2K or just want something different.

Bad move EA!
Good job on Madden, however.

EA really needs to clear the air on this. Press release or something. It's Labor Day weekend and no cover for LIVE or anything. Just info from May and June.

Virtua Fighter 5 was $15 and you expect me to pay $20 for this trash? C'mon man!

I highly doubt LIVE 13 will be released. There is absolutely nothing on EA's upcoming game release schedule concerning LIVE. Something went wrong with the development/programming team and EA doesn't want to let this out of the bag. Just guessing, throwing it out there, but I bet the dev team got fired or they quit after the poor showing at E3. Or, someone on the lead dev team suddenly left. Either way, EA flubbed up concerning LIVE. They should just come out and tell us the direction LIVE is at least going. Come on Peter Moore!! Wass up!!
