Spend a year making a game.
Back out because you know NBA2K13 is going to destroy it.
That's our competitive EA.

Apparently copying and pasting all that code and changing all the 12s to 13s took longer than they thought it would.

You also have to apparently nerf Kobe Bryant so he doesn't win everything by himself (just like in real life).

What happened to this series. I remember playing the Live 09 demo and thinking the animation system was insanely good, though I’m no basketball fan.
EA is garbage, 2K makes way better sports games! At least EA doesn't have a monopoly on basketball games like they do with football...
yes ea, making a great game is not easy indeed, especially when you never made a good nba title since 2003
We are all making assumptions, but I think the reality is even weirder. It seems like the team was A) understaffed or B) Incompetent or C) Both D) This is a tax-shell scheme E) EA is in a fight with the NBA so they are making games that they can show off in court, but they won't release.
I think it could be D or E where this has nothing to do with making a game; they are intentionally making a bad game for some sort of "business" reason. Oh, sure, it could be A, B, C but that seem less likely in my twisted head.

This is just pathetic. First they try and relaunch the NBA Live brand with NBA Elite 11. The game is literally finished, PS3 copies were printed and you can find them on the internet if you look hard enough, but the launch was canceled before it could come out.
They skip making NBA Elite 12, and instead move to 13, but they bring back the Live brand instead. And now, at the point when the game should pretty much be going gold, they cancel it *yet again* and wait for the next generation to start.
I wonder if EA realizes they're basically keeping 2K Sports in business by being so fucking incompetent.
