Somebody's REALLY disappointed with the game


Being disappointed in a game is one thing. But to be so disappointed, that a bunch of you would actually write an open web letter to the publisher to say (a) "the game sucks," (b) "you're not listening to us," and (c) "we're going to switch to the competition," well, you got to wonder where the publisher or dev team's gone wrong.

Which is what members of the NBA Live Series Center Forum, the largest community forum for the NBA Live series, have done after they played NBA Live 07 - and, well, hated it. Yep, these hardcore fans (as they describe themselves) hated the game enough, to write this open web letter to Electronic Arts to express their disappointment:

For us however, NBA Live 07 is the final straw... Until this release we overlooked any flaws in the game, ones that some of us considered major even if others of us considered them minor. But this release has ignited feelings that EA doesn't care about its fans, which is the reason we are writing today.

The open letter vocally accuses EA of ignoring the fans, from wish lists to bug fixes, not only in NBA Live, but, the letter writers say, in other places like FIFA and Battlefield 2 as well. While they have not entirely given up on EA and NBA Live - their petitions for patch fixes and other wish lists continue. But: If this continues it seems inevitable that more and more players will eventually give up on NBA Live.

You can read more on the letter at the source link below. We'd like to ask you this question, however: do you find NBA Live 07 as bad as these guys found it?

 » No Alternative to NBA LIVE

There really is no NBA simulation alternative to the EA series. Recently some other gaming companies have tried to emulate the Live franchise sucess but it cant be done. Its almost a monopoly. I have Live for PC and it is much harder than last years. I can overlook glitches because I wouldnt waste money on any other game.

 » nba live 07 sucks!

this game really sucks,big time! first of all, the player graphics are too small (very much similar to NBA live of the 90's) and commentary is so robotic and lame. The biggest flaws are the contacts between players, shooting, dribbling, and the dunks are so impossible, to the point that some players get to dunk without touching the rim.damn! EA is a stupid company, not listening to what the market really wants. hope ea losses the competition. its the only way they'll learn.
