OS Roundtable: Does Live Stand a Chance?

03:51 PM - September 12, 2013 by RaychelSnr

Let's face it, NBA 2K is king currently.

There are no other game series which are awaited as anxiously by OS'ers than NBA 2K, and for the last couple of years the game has gone unchallenged on the marketplace.

Of course, changes this year as NBA Live 14 is entering stage right.

With such an ingrained dominance on the marketplace right now from NBA 2K, does NBA Live even stand a chance to make a mark on gamers this year and establish a foothold to work off of?

His body language is also completely lethargic and he does a small, robotic turn in place on one foot on his way to the hole. The latter is somewhat expected in a video game, but this wasn't what I expected with "BounceTek".

It looks nothing like the Kyrie videos. Not just because it's Nash or sig styles. It just looks... bad.

Are you sure about that? For the longest time, 2k struggled financially. And with the rising costs of making games, margins are even smaller now. I don't think Live 10 made a profit. That's why EA flipped out and made the call on Elite. If it did make money, it apparently wasn't enough to satisfy EA.

Live 10 sold around 900k copies while 2K10 sold around 2.2 million. According to VGCharts.

2K13 sold over 5 million copies. The production costs on 2K11, 2K12, 2K13 and 2K14 on current gen probably haven't been very big.

You're right, cause that's very low, considering how many platforms nba 2k13 is on, PC, PS3, Xbox 360,PSP,Wii, Wii U
