Live 10 was a good game (80 metacritic) and it doesn't make sense that the game has been broken for 3 years since.

I guarentee nba live 13 won't be cancelled they can't afford to cancel it again after that NBA Elite debacle they would lose too much money if they cancel the game again.

Well I guess Cedric can stop now.

I said this many months ago! Live was finished! It is unfortunate and sad because it had the potential (after NBA Live 10) to be great again...but something is going on internally at EA Sports that is causing these issues. I hope they can fix things and get back on track.

I don't think any developer could have saved this game from what they were trying to build off of. We can say Mike Wang this, Mike Wang that, the game was being build off of crud and the devs were trying to fix all of the mistakes that hockey guy made. Also stop belittling these devs, they've put their work in to get where they are today, they are qualified to make a video game, so bringing up Mike all the time is disrespectful.

It wasn't the devs that killed this series, it's management and looking back at how poorly this product has been manged the last Two years, it's obvious. No developer wants to make a terrible product, they have to listen to the higher ups and work with what they have. The devs have to follow orders, and EA felt that Elite could be a successful product so that's why they've built of of it. Please stop putting all of the blame on the devs, do they have a part to play yes, but I think the "suits" play the larger part in how good or bad a game will be.

Funny how 2k plays like live niw with the new control stick dribble moves. Insult to injury. LOL

What have they been doing the last 2 years? Really? It's going to take 3+ years to make a bb game?
