And for just 20$ I wouldnt mind buying the game as long as EA fixed the issues we saw in the leaked footage then I'll buy it.

I just came here to laugh at the desperate live fans lol I mean really a 20 digital download? Why not just include the game with an issue of game informer? Its really pathetic you guys are the loving boyfriends and ea is the lying cheating promiscuios gf that constantly burns you, let you just can't let her go. You will learn the hard way

Just because something is better does'nt make it fun...hmmm..so you mean like..2 girls are better than 1 but just because 2 is better does'nt make it fun? Huh? I don't understand your logic sir

Some of the people here are ridiculous with their blind faith in EA. The game will be complete garbage. EA is basically admitting that by making it a $20 digital release. And no, that's not the same thing as NFL 2K5. 2K5 is arguably the greatest sports game of all time. The reason they're making it a $20 digital release is because they can't compete. Hell, one guy in this thread actually said he'd buy Live 13 no matter what. How stupid is that? I almost blame the consumers more than anybody for EA's mediocrity throughout this gen. They're spoon feeding people crap and they continue to buy it for some reason.

What I'm seeing here is that fans are accepting what ever EA is putting out like some Cult and protecting them like they are brainwashed. If fans accept this game and the game sells huge numbers EA will keep putting out the same or similar game over and over. The way people are going on in here EA is cheating itself by selling it for $20.

It's actually sad in a bad economy people would accept mediocre for any amount. I like competition and a choice too, but I refuse to buy a cheap car with four flats when I can buy a high performance car.

I like many here foresee no competition from NBA Live. Live 13 will be a disfunctional product released merely to generate some profit. EA will only take their bottom line into account when developing video games, yet thats just my opinion.

The fact that the thing you brought up to criticize 2K for is the online is actually pretty telling of their game. They make some pretty quality basketball games when the first beef someone has with it is the online servers.

The scariest part about Live being disowned by it's own company is that EA, with all it's billions of dollars, can't hire talented human beings to bring great ideas to the table. How hard is it to study 2K, and everything 2K does great, and build on that to create a competitor?

Anyone with me?
