Here it is, our first glimpse of NBA Live 13 in action.

Thoughts?

UPDATE: EA has taken down the video. Look through the comments section and you might be able to see a few pop up there, until they are removed as well.

UPDATE #2: Kotaku has it online.

UPDATE #3: EA Sports has responded... (via Owen Good, Kotaku)

EA Sports responds: "The video appears to be captured from a pre-alpha build months ago and is not an official EA SPORTS release. It does not represent a final build or feature set for NBA Live."

Not even 4 years ago I'm afraid. 4 years ago we had games like Fallout 3 and such that were superior graphically.

This must've been an early build cause there is no way the game can look that bad from a build only two months from release.

It is an early build.

From 2005.

That video was, well just bad. I was really, really wanting EA to step up and give us something that would at least give basketball fans some hope for the future, but it's really hard to find in that video. With that said, some of the post in here are just as bad. Some of you people seem exited, or giddy that EA is failing, with the comments you've made. That makes no sense, if your a fan of video basketball you would want competition and as many choices as you can get, company pushing company. But you people seem happy with going down the same road as football has gone, one choice no competition.
You better hope 2k doesn't become complacent, because if they do you will have no choice. AND THEY WILL KNOW IT.

what in the world was that ?

they have all this money to spend and the presentation still looks like a PS2 game ? sheesh. I'm hurt.

*looks at NBA Live 2004 case and reminisces to the good old days*

Looks like a game for a mobile phone

I get so aggravated when I think of the game we could have had if they simply built upon live 10. Can't believe we have waited 3 years for this.

They had us wait this long..EA felt all the pressure from this community and they think they can release this gameplay video to satisfy us and then say its a early development video!!! haha wont be getting my 60

No one mentioned the referees.

Commentary is not good at all. The ESPN stuff is the only positive.
 
# 472 AMYO @ 08/21/12 11:29 PM
The crowd and commentary are great....that's it

Same here, I think peoples expectation of the game are to high. As long as EA is able to make a solid game this year then they can just build on that for future releases. I'm hoping this footage is pre-alpha and EA has already fixed some of the issues in the footage though.

fix some of the issues ?

Well right off the bat, the engine is outdated. You can't "tweak" that. It's flawed from the ground up.
 
# 477 bawlinb @ 08/21/12 11:41 PM
it makes no sense why would EA release a pre alpha video build at this point in time

It was not released through official channels.

Pre game presentation was sweet. For the rest I will obey my mother who taught me that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.

They screwed up so bad .. Had the chance to win our money !
The game is so official but this looks like NBA 2k12 on IPad ...
Com'on.
