Great show guys. :)

I must admit I do share Jon's optimism as far as NBA Live having potential; bits and pieces that are promising and could be put to good use, if only they could be developed and polished. It may be that NBA Live 14 is the strong comeback and whether or not that was the original plan, perhaps that is the plan now. We'll have to see how things turn out, but I expect we'll see NBA Live 13 in some form and that the franchise will continue. Giving up on the current generation and trying to get off to a strong start on the next is an interesting theory, though.

With it being a digital release, I'm wondering if anyone who does buy it and provides feedback would be eligible for some kind of discount, rebate or boost with NBA Live 14. With NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, anyone who bought the disc based NBA Jam released in 2010 and had a save file on their hard drive received a "Welcome back" gift of a level boost and Jam Bucks to unlock some content right away. Perhaps they could offer something similar with NBA Live 14, a "thanks for giving us a try and helping us shape the game" type of deal.

Great analysis of all the latest 2K news, too. At least on that side of things, we're getting some details that we can sink our teeth into.

Awesome stuff guys, keep 'em coming! The bit where Jao started talking about 2k sports, made a pause, then just sighed, really made me laugh, as it sums up the experience of an average PC user with the 2k series :lol:

if you go to any "normal" forum, and click on the announcement, it wont me. But if you view a global announcement through the "new posts" page it defaults to this locked HoF forum.

Yeah, just like Jao said, if you visit the thread via any of the subforums (the NBA 2K13 one for example), it won't appear as locked.

If you view it via the "View unread posts" or "View new posts" of the main page of the Forum, you'll get it showing up as a Hall of Fame thread, which makes it locked.

Happens to Global Announcements.

You could make a locked thread for podcast announcements directing to podcast discussion threads.

Yeah, we've discussed breaking up the podcast thread into a separate thread per episode, if discussion got too much for a single thread.

I've added a note to the op for now.

Could have just a general discussion thread until it warrants separate threads for each episode.

Link works for us lowly peasants btw.
