54. "Ppl don't understand. They lost their best ppl." In response to In response to 49
All their best people left for 2K I think after NBA Live 2010. It was all down hill from there. Hence why it makes sense that none of the Live editions since then have been of quality. They just don't have the talent anymore. It's like laughing at a kid that has an apple in his lunchbox when his family just doesn't have the resources. And as I'm sure we've all read on tech blogs in regards to talent, keeping the BEST talent is a big deal for companies like Facebook, Google, Apple, etc. EA hasn't been able to do so with their basketball product.
The interesting thing is someone on that team convinced EA they could still make a quality game when it's obviously they couldn't. I personally would like to see the series ended if they can't find some talent to help REALLY resurrect the franchise.
