NBA Live 13 Advisory Council

advisory council in NBA Live 13

The developers of NBA Live 13 announced one of the coolest promotions the sports video games community has seen in a long time.  Starting February 27th and ending March 9th, you can apply to be on the NBA Live 13 advisory council.  If you are selected as part of the council, you will be able to work with and provide feedback to the EA NBA Live team in Florida.  If you are interested, send an email to easportsnba_adcouncil@ea.com with 100 words or less about why you should be a part of the advisory council.  The winners will be selected by the NBA Live 13 development team.  This type of fan feedback is a giant step in the right direction for the NBA Live franchise in it’s quest to overtake NBA 2K.

MLB 2K12 Demo Arrives Next Week

mlb 2k12 demo release date

The MLB 2K12 demo will arrive on Tuesday, February 28th on both the XBOX 360 and the PlayStation 3.  Those who download the demo will be able to play in a World Series rematch of the Texas Rangers vs. the St. Louis Cardinals (but only for 3 innings). This is a giant leap forward for MLB 2K12.  They haven’t released too much information regarding their upcoming game but by releasing the demo, they allow fans to decide for themselves.

We still haven’t heard any news about a possible MLB 12: The Show demo.  It could be that SCEA feels that they have done a good enough job on previous games to establish credibility so they see no need to put a demo out.  If the MLB 2K12 demo is any good and there isn’t a MLB 12: The Show demo, some bargain hunting fans may decide to purchase the NBA/MLB 2K12 combo pack from Amazon for only $69.99.

NBA Live 13 Game Confirmed

nba live 13 confirmed!

EA Sport’s NBA Live series is back!  After attempting to re-brand the series into NBA Elite and then completely scratching it all together, Electronic Arts has decided to bring back it’s NBA video game series under it’s original name, NBA Live.  Earlier today Kyrie Irving tweeted that he was playing NBA Live 13 which EA later confirmed as the name of this year’s NBA game.

Even though many argue that 2K Sports has created the better “sim” basketball game over the last few years, having competition surely will not hurt.  There will be more news coming from EA Sports on NBA Live 13 coming next Monday.
