So far all we have seen is a 1 minute snippet role of target footage, NOT GAMEPLAY at E3 and haven't heard a peep since.

Supposedly these are listed as launch games and yet we have seen about ten times as much footage for a game like Infamous which doesn't release till next year. Hell, we've seen more footage for FFXV and lord knows that game isn't coming out till I have two legs halfway down the grave.

As an avid basketball fan, I'm getting concerned. So EA/2K, where the hell are your games if they are launching in less than 2 months?

I don't really want to gaze upon the soul-consuming maw of Lebron anymore.

In the case of NBA 2k, I believe it has to do with not wanting to interfere with current-gen sales for a game that is releasing in about a month. (This could go for Madden and FIFA as well)

As for NBA Live, its probably a real shitty effort at a basketball game and they don't want to show it until the last minute.

Otherwise, if I were EA and knew I had a great basketball game, I'd already be advertising the hell out of it to steal 2k's thunder.

Good question! I was wondering too, I really wanna see features and graphics.

I'm not expecting much graphics wise. I think next year would be a more built up version.

I'm really looking forward for next-gen basketball games especially Live 14. Live 14 is being developed only for PS4 and XB1, I wonder if EA will nail it this time. However, we're still in early September, we should get something by the end of Sept. or start of Oct.

I like this thought process. Makes sense.

Who knows if true, but I dig it.

No. They won't.

Pretty logical conclusion. The fact that we are two months out and still haven't heard a dime, is making me assume the worst.

I guess I should just pass on this years sports titles. :/

They said they gonna release more info after this gen games come out..will 2k atleast said that, I dont know what EA is doing.

 

[Dramos]

No. They won't.

Competition is good. I have no concerns about 2K since they've been awesome since 2K9.

Don't do that to yourself. Live is going to be a wreck. And 2K has the brand recognition and cover boy.
