NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned

[jwtucker710]

Rumor maybe they are waiting on the new consoles coming out next year, to implement a new game engine unlike anything seen in a basketball sim.

Damn, guess they will not get to make that big splash in sales that the OS staff promised.

The OS staff? You serious right now? When? I want post dates, times and usernames. If what you say is true, which don't worry, I already know it isn't, this should be a simple task.

Can't say I was completely surprised to read this news but it's odd that they've released a trailer a couple of weeks before its cancellation. What I don't understand is if they wanted to continue building from Elite 11 so bad then why did they change studios? They lost precious time to continue making the game from going to Tiburon, hiring people and make them understand a flawed code when if the team in EA Canada continued making the game they should be having a decent game by now since they always talk about "three-year plans". I don't know how they'll recover from this but they need to bring their A game if they want to have interest from people and their own fans.

Poetic Justice for 2k for when EA bought the NFL license. EA even had M Wang and was unable to keep him. EA was beat fair and square on this one and was unable to acquire an exclusive NBA license or acquire Take Two (which it tried to do right as the 2008 economic meltdown occurred).

Bottom line is we, the basketball community and our reactions are what fueled this cancelation
