Exciting NBA Live 08 news coming?

NBA Live 08 Tony Parker

A few days ago it was mentioned in a blog on the NBA Live 08 website that there would be exciting news regarding Live this week. However I have found out that whatever it is will not be revealed until Monday the 24th.

No one really has a confident feel on what this news could be. Some have suggested the release date may be pushed up to next Tuesday, but its hard to believe EA would want to release Live on the same day as Halo 3. On the other hand it would still accomplish beating out NBA 2K8 to the store shelves. Both currently are set to be in stores on Tuesday October 2nd.

Regardless of what the news holds I am hoping to have my copy of Live early next week. Full impressions, comparisons to the Community Day build, and videos will follow soon after having it in hand. 

Update 9/24: I've just been informed that this announcement is now unlikely to come today. It should make its way out by the end of the week, possibly as early as tomorrow.

    Artoficial, Your an assclown to number one comment back to me, Number two you did mean to come off harsh because you did come off harsh. If you didn’t you wouldn’t have, Just because your EA’s call girl does not mean that its a stupid move. And If Halo 3 does not play a role in the sales or the release date of Halo 3 then why was it mentioned in the sentence? in the first place. Learn something in business, DUMB MOVE. I don’t care how you see it. And EA should be proud in their game? we will see they have proved nothing in any of the games they have made this year(Ie madden 08). And lastly next time you want to talk to me or to anyone to prove a point, You find a better way to talk or prove your dumbass points. If you come mean, your gonna get a mean result in how people talk to you.

    smartconsumer,

    LOL!

    Okay you’re right I did mean to come off harsh because I’m a bit tired of all the EA haters. If I’m EA’s call girls that would have to make you 2K’s bottom bitch. The comments you make are worthy a back hand from any pimp.

    ” And If Halo 3 does not play a role in the sales or the release date of Halo 3 then why was it mentioned in the sentence?” Okay you might want to scroll back up and read what I’m saying. Next read it to a friend who’s just a tad bit brighter than you and have him explain it you.

    “we will see they have proved nothing in any of the games they have made this year(Ie madden 08).” I like how you make a blanket statement about all of their games but only mention Madden 08. Last time I checked the new Medal of Honor was a giant leap forward from the previous one’s.

    How about this. Next time you want to jump your hater ass on a blog you make sure you have some valid points. So stop acting like EA pimped your mom out and put her on the corner, dude.

    meant to be taken harshly!

    artoficial thats more like it at least now your honest. I have no loyalty to 2k. Unlike you who are on EA’ nuts more than a porn star. Get over yourself. There would be no EA haters if EA would actually make QUALITY GAME!! Instead of using money to buy up exclusive licenses, why not just hire some good workers to finally make a good game.(ie nba live 06,07,) You want facts? heres the fact, For the past 2 years on 360 all of EA’s titles are broken, glitched up and more crippled than a man with no ears to hear, eyes to see and legs to walk.

    Read the reviews tardtaster, thats the facts, And we are not talking about medal of honor. it’s good now we will see when brothers in arms comes out and blows it out. like what happens to all EA stuff, So they will probably buy some other company out.

    Thats not throwing a blanket, EA is horrible, (ie tiger woods 08 or whatever its called)

    So you can get your undies with the EA logo on them in a wad all you want, It still dosen’t change the fact that EA cant make sports games, They only thing they rely on is just buying out stuff. EA will stop being hated on when they stop making games in a basement. Thats the fact.

    EA sports, if it’s in the game? it’s probably in the patch.

    “You want facts? heres the fact, For the past 2 years on 360 all of EA’s titles are broken, glitched up and more crippled than a man with no ears to hear, eyes to see and legs to walk.”

    Incorrect and silly to say, The last several versions of NCAA Football have been great, even March Madness on next gen was great. Small problems in Madden 08 don’t destroy the title, especially when you compare it to something as ignorant as 2k’s attempt at football this year.

    NBA Live 08 based on the demo and reviews/previews really looks amazing. All I hear from 2k fanbois is that the animations and play calling in 2k is so much better, the gameplay is soooo much better…

    I guess we are just looking at 2 different versions of the game because from what I see 2k8 is less than impressive.

    say what you want EA has not proven themselves for anything and 2k opened the football market again and at least tried now they did drop the ball with a barebones game, Something in which EA caused by buying up the market. Mainly for money and because they can not make a good game. Just because it sells well does not mean that it is good. It just means that customers are stupid in choices.

    “Incorrect and silly to say, The last several versions of NCAA Football have been great, even March Madness on next gen was great. Small problems in Madden 08 don’t destroy the title, especially when you compare it to something as ignorant as 2k’s attempt at football this year.”

    Thats like a college student failed his class but hey got two A’s on his test too wait what? does not make sense make all your products good no excuse. And “small problems”? in madden 08? you played a different game than me. check youtube amigo, they aint that “small” botched up uniforms, glitches that could have been tested.

    I’m sure your calling out 2k fanboys but remember, The kettle is black too.

    Time will tell on this company and this game.

    God you are just fucking retarded. Time will tell on this company!!????? LMAO EA has been around longer than you have been alive (most likely and taking from your writing and debating stylings).

    As for the problems with Madden 08, there are a few (frequent fumbles and ints) but if you are citing the uniform issues like missing a stripe on the socks here and there (like the examples pointed out in the forums here) then you are just reaching trying to cling onto anything that helps you build a case.

    Your metaphors lack any inkling of intelligent wording, your 2k lobbying and bashing of EA is tired and over done.

    “Mainly for money and because they can not make a good game. Just because it sells well does not mean that it is good. It just means that customers are stupid in choices.”

    So I guess that means if you are taking this from a sales perspective that there are only about 200,000 2k football fans out there, based on the sales of AllPro?

    laff

    gtfo of here with that shit

    I would have to classify you as the dumbest phucking poster on here. Are you a disgruntled ex-employee of EA? The funny part of your comment about me being on EA’s nuts is the fact that I actually play 2K basketball. The thing I don’t think you can comprehend is that some of us can be objective of these games.

    “There would be no EA haters if EA would actually make QUALITY GAME!!” This is a matter of opinion( look up the definition of objective), the same can be said about 2k but there is no accounting for bad taste or lack there of on your part.

    It’s no big revelation that the last two years of Live have been horrid so you’ll need to come up with some a little more PHUCKING original than that, you dumb ass.

    It’s funny how selective your memory is. Last I checked 2K’s graphics haven’t changed much in the past few years on the nextgen 360 console. But i guess you’ve decided to overlook this small detail. I’ve been playing NCAA football 08 and I like most of the sane people who play games can tell you it’s vastly improved. Perfect, no but what game is.

    “Read the reviews tardtaster, thats the facts, And we are not talking about medal of honor.” Give us the link to the review dumb phuck. The last time i checked Medal of Honor was an EA product. I mentioned it because you keep making generalized statements about all EA games. So when you say stupid shit people tend to call you on it.

    I am not in favor of any company buying the licenses to any sports titles, it’s bad for consumers and the industry.

    Please don’t mention All-Pro Football and blame EA for a bad idea by 2K. So don’t blame bad player models and recycled commentary on EA.

    http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/sports/allprofootball2k8/index.html

    So i’m sorry you couldn’t get a job at EA, keep trying and maybe they’ll have you mopping their basement floors.

    next time you post try not to sound like an idiot.

    Isiah, Padre isn’t the be all to end all on Live news. He hasn’t responded, so he obviously doesn’t know a thing about it. As far as this other debate, art, just let him go. He has no idea of whats going on, he’s stooped so low as to refer to you as “fartofical” and its obvious his maturity level is questionable, at best.

    Smartconsumer, you’re entitled to your opinion, however there will be those who disagree with you, including myself. Like I said to someone earlier, Halo has Halo fans, not everyone in the world loves Halo. Live has Live fans and those fans are going to buy the game regardless of what day the game comes out. Its that easy, anyone who can’t comprehend that is lacking in the common sense department. Your statement that releasing Live on the same day as Halo 3 would hurt sales is not accurate either. It may not get the amount of sales that EA is hoping for, but certainly there will be a large group of consumers who do buy the game. Anytime you release a game earlier than expected (especially a sports game that has a large fan base), you’re only helping yourself and catering to what fans want.

    The point is, it may not sell out at the local game stores, but it will still sell. All this speculation has gotten a little out of control now. How about it stops for the time being and lets wait and see what this news is.

    One more thing…..Incase you hadn’t noticed, this site primarily discusses EA games. If you’re not a fan it would be appreciated if you did not waste your time or ours by coming here with the specific intent to to stir up trouble, rather than providing something intelligent and resourceful to say. Thanks.

Like I said to someone earlier, Halo has Halo fans, not everyone in the world loves Halo. Live has Live fans and those fans are going to buy the game regardless of what day the game comes out. Its that easy, anyone who can’t comprehend that is lacking in the common sense department. Your statement that releasing Live on the same day as Halo 3 would hurt sales is not accurate either. It may not get the amount of sales that EA is hoping for, but certainly there will be a large group of consumers who do buy the game. Anytime you release a game earlier than expected (especially a sports game that has a large fan base), you’re only helping yourself and catering to what fans want.

    The point is, it may not sell out at the local game stores, but it will still sell. All this speculation has gotten a little out of control now. How about it stops for the time being and lets wait and see what this news is.

    One more thing…..Incase you hadn’t noticed, this site primarily discusses EA games. If you’re not a fan it would be appreciated if you did not waste your time or ours by coming here with the specific intent to to stir up trouble, rather than providing something intelligent and resourceful to say. Thanks.

    my aplogies to you dante, But I hold no apologies to those two who jumped on me to begin with what i first said, They want it to be like it’s communism, agree with EA or nothing at all type of thing, not gonna happen. Since I respect you Dante I’ll leave it at that because smart people like you don’t deserve that. But these two need to wake up and understand that it’s a game and two not every one is gonna fed their ego because I am not gonna agree.

    with that said I aplogize to those here but those two can sit and spin..
