I'll be getting it a little down the road. Probably the best sports game year in and year out
I don't get it. Why cancel it? They should sell it for cheap in order to recoup some of the money invested. They should fire whoever is in charge of the game development and hire some real pros.
My first instinct is to laugh at this news because from the outside looking in, it's been just one huge disaster after another for EA's basketball team these last few years.
On the flip side, I really do think it'd be nice to someday see another company's legitimate take on the game of basketball again. But I'm totally on both sides of the fence here. I want EA to really put some time in and create an awesome product, but then it's just kind of hilarious to watch them flim flam all about. I mean, they announced an indefinite delay on the same day they released their trailer. Who does that?

Thats what they had been doing but somehow failed.
:lol
AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
EA's basketball franchise has been irrelevant since 2K's series came out! Now all we need is for their NFL monopoly to end so 2K can make a proper NFL game! :bowdown:

A new 2K NFL game would blow Madden away. I don't think EA is losing that license any time soon though.
I used to love NBA Live when i was younger, the last one I got was 2004 or 2005 I think with Melo on the cover. Didn't know the franchise got discontinued.
[QUOTE=Heavincent]A new 2K NFL game would blow Madden away. I don't think EA is losing that license any time soon though.[/QUOTE]I think the exclusive license ends in 2013, so I'll be curious to see if the NFL just mindlessly re-ups or once again introduces other competitors.

Why would any real pros want to work on a game that has been made 30 times already?
They should make another NBA Street. Those games were fun!
