Realistically speaking, it probably won't happen ever, and if it does, it won't be for a very, very long time.

Where the hell did i say "Huge" chance? Oh wait I didnt. I said Anything is possible which means they could but it also means they wont. Or is 2K paying your bills and this is how you repay them by misreading posts that arent completely possible towards 2k?

For one, wasn't specifying just you, I just quoted your post for context.

Care to share what other aspects than dribbling? Cause I'd love to hear them. Graphical withstanding.

you can't win a war in one battle. I don't get the hate anymore, its an improvement, its an obvious they are not going to beat the competition, Live was real good cause their arena was more dynamic, user control was more casual game friendly so you didn't have to feel like a Tech god working to get the controls down. It can appeal to a lot of people and still sell, probably more than the competition like early years

The only problem with EA is now with the internet, they never been the underdog. [Critically, they have.all of their games are rated lower, despite selling more]In the old gen, you could get away with sliding and stuff, fans were just happy to see an NBA product they can play. I remember so many companies had the license. Now a days, everyone wants sim, if people want to invest 60 dollars in a fallen economy, then the game must be worth it. It has to be for a yearly edition. They want the full experience. Putting out a game that mimics sim, but isn't sim won't do it anymore. this isn't 2000. I think what EA needs to do is take a hard look at themselves in the mirror and ask themselves, what do we really want to do moving forward?

[I apologize for my typos, my keyboard sucks, and it costs 50 dollars to replace..and I'm not going to do that lol]

If EA formed an alliance with the Lannisters and the Mother of Dragons. Maybe.
