The year prior it was MLB 2K12/NBA 2K12 for $70. The cheaper prices with those deals were meant to entice consumers who had an interest in NBA 2K to buy the far less desirable MLB 2K along with it....

Press Row Hangout: Post-Patch NBA Live 14
A huge patch three months in the making arrived for NBA Live 14 earlier this week. While it had almost no chance of turning a sub-par game into a good one the message being sent with it was made clear - EA Sports is not giving up on the series. Praise however should be tempered as the work done to produce the update has not been an act of charity but rather necessity. Live 14 has improved in a number of areas now, some fairly significantly, but in general still falls short of reasonable c...

Patch Expected Soon for NBA Live 14; Adds Shootaround, Improves Gameplay and Visuals
While there may not be many consumers playing NBA Live 14 it has been important for EA Sports to follow through not just on post-release promises but delivering a competent and enjoyable product to market. Those who gave the game a chance may not be so forgiving this fall when Live 15 arrives. It's not just the goodwill of improving the game but demonstrating that the company recognizes its faults and may be in a position to rectify them while excelling in other areas in the coming years. ...

The All-Star Game jerseys are similar to the Christmas jerseys - sleeved and with a big logo on front. It was just over a week ago that 2K finally added the Christmas jerseys and a few oth...
