We recently put together out top five wants out of the title, but competition in the basketball simulation market is definitely a good thing. There’s been a lot of debate around the name of the upcoming title, as most think that neither NBA Live or NBA Elite..."
For many years, EA’s NBA Live series was the premier basketball simulation for video gamers. They offered great graphics (at the time) and accessible enough gameplay to make the overall experience fun.
It seemed like the NBA Live series would go on forever much like the FIFA and Madden series. That is until recently when the NBA Live series went dormant. Will EA then revive NBA Live 14 for next generation consoles?
Hopefully im getting tire of 2k they are getting lazy and greedy with the stupid coin system
2k needs the compitition. Live is nothing compared to 2k but 2k has been lagging imo. Things as simple as rebounding are broken this year...shows how lax they are....like madden, I can only imagine how much better it would be if it had competition.
2k has glitches guys stealing balls with they back turned 3 point records being broke every game live please come back
kotaku.com: 2012 was a hell of a year for video games. We got a ton of fantastic games to play, surprises of all shapes, sizes, and colors. It was also a year of upheaval, when things often didn't go according to plan, and when many a game failed to live up to expectations.
i also voted down. not even going to give them the satisfaction of a hit because i'm willing to bet that half of the list is sony-related for no good reason.
Vita, The Last Guardian, Twisted Metal, and "limp fall lineups from Sony and EA".
Have you noticed they have like 4 negative things from Sony
PSV
Twisted Metal
No news of the Last Guardian
No good line up from EA AND Sony
No good line up....oh and Microsofts and Nintendos was any better...jesus chrsit these guys hate Sony don't they.
Kotaku: "Microsoft's purple yogurt shooter rated up and delicious"
I'm so sad about that, too. I'm a huge Diablo fanboy and I even bought the collector's edition. After about a week of playing, I just didn't feel like it was fun enough/worth it to bother with the higher difficulties.
I dropped the game afterwards and never went back. A damn shame, really...
Exactly how i feel as well... This is what happens when you make a game around a drm....
That's what happens when you pull out all the stat mechanics and skills choices and instead make every same level character identical except for their gear...
Granted it took awhile to level up a character in D2 but it was always fun to try out new and possibly stupid builds instead of giving us every single spell just for leveling up.
Only thing they got right was the Collosal failure of Diablo 3 a game thats been run into the ground by lack of content running act 3 can only be fun for a while and bots.
I thought swtor launched last year...sometime in early december if I remember right.
GotGame: Is Cliff Blezinski's departure from Epic a cause for concern for Gears of War? Should EA retire NBA Live? Does the Wii U launch have you pumped? Find our what two of our staffers have to say.
They actually wrote that? You're right, what a thigh slapper. Thanks for saving me from clicking on the link.
ohhhhh, its an opinion piece. I guess that makes it alright... O_o
There aren't many Vita games I would buy right now.
But purchasing a Vita would still be a good decisions for me personally because I never owned a PS1,Ps2,Ps3 or PSP. I get to play all but the PS3 games on the Vita. That is a huge back catalog of RPG's and other good games for me to play and most of those will be cheap since they are older games.
^ So considering that + the fact that Vita will be getting games for the next 5-8 years = I'm getting a Vita at some point.
I just don't want to rush in and get one the week before a sale like I did with 3DS.
I bought a 3DS at Gamestop, the next day they started offering Pilot Wings resort FREE with purchase. lol not for me though.
With the same below average gameplay when compared to 2k?sorry EA but no thanks.
... although I wish they'd also pick the NBA Street series back up.
i wish them all the best luck but 2k is gettin better and stronger every year, 2k12 is masterpiece.
EA should just stick to NFL, and let 2k take care of the NBA games.
Good luck stopping 2k. EA can suck it.
