NBA Live 13 News Post

NBA Elite Name is History, NBA Live 13 is Coming

04:06 PM - February 23, 2012 by RaychelSnr

The last NBA Live game, NBA Live 10.

Kotaku has the scoop, with #1 Draft Pick Kyrie Irving breaking the news on Twitter and EA then confirming it.

Quote:


	""This fall we'll launch an all-new experience that captures the future of basketball with NBA Live 13," a spokesman said. "More to come soon."

What do you think about the move back? Good idea? Bad idea?

Good idea......having the name Elite just sets expectations way too high.

# 2 22cedric @ 02/23/12 04:14 PM

Great news to remove the Elite name & go back to the original NBA Live Name.

Great, great, great !!!! idea to come back as nba live 13... I cant wait to see what EA has Done for past two years....

Great idea!! If it's just a tweaked version of live 10 i would be happy, though of course I expect it will be much more than that!

I wouldn't be surprised if they go all out and select Jeremy Lin as the coverboy.

# 9 22cedric @ 02/23/12 04:32 PM

I wonder which game will sell more NBA Live 13 or NBA 2K13

Not to mention, killed brand recognition.

# 12 jersez @ 02/23/12 04:44 PM

I'm going to pick the game up regardless. I have to see what two years of work has done.

YES. These exclusive contracts hurt the gamers.

# 15 hesko @ 02/23/12 05:03 PM

@ tengu. not releasing their game twice killed there brand recognition.

Looks like hiphopgamer wasn't lying about the news coming. Patients people haha. I am very optimistic for what's in store for this game.

Exactly. If anything 2K should get a push from this to make an even better game.

# 18 Sparkles @ 02/23/12 05:08 PM

NBA Elite just didnt sound like an EA game. Perfect move by them

# 19 Gramps91 @ 02/23/12 05:10 PM

Looking forward to this, glad they are going back to LIVE. EA better bring it though. It's going to take a lot to drag me from 2k and please no stupid gimmicky controls.
from 2007-2010 I always got the game that looked better to me first (either Live or 2k) and then got the other one after the price dropped.
All except for live 07 cause it just flat out sucked.

# 20 Mintsa @ 02/23/12 05:16 PM

As a Live head from the Lakers vs Celtics days...this a great move. I grew up with Live and to me that's what the name should always be.

Anyways, having competition is always a GOOD thing.

Let the war for the virtual basketball title begin this october !
