NBA Live 16 LIVE Run and Summer Circuit Interview with Sean O'Brien

Competition is always great.
TBH, based on the server stability and online experience, 2K's Pro-Am can't compete with EA's at all unless 2K can make some great improvement to solve the input lag and online delay.

This is one thing ea does well, all the modes and glitz and glamour and stuff,nothing beats a good ole world map where u can chose state and country,

Will we see teams stacked with 7 footers or will there be some restrictions there as well?

Sean – NOPE! There are height/weight and skill caps based on the size and position of your created player. No 7-foot athletic wing players draining 3’s in NBA LIVE!

Sean – Rising Star is the only other game mode other than LIVE Pro-Am where you can earn SP/RP and this is a game where you have to earn your XP. No $$ to buy your created players. We call it sweat equity. You’ve got to spend the time in the game playing and progressing in order to level up, which we feel makes for a level playing field for all players.

SHOTS FIRED!! I LOVE IT! I wish 2k wasn't so money hungry and took out this too.

I probably won't buy it since I've always been a 2k guy, but I'm glad there is competition again! 2K has been slacking.

Yo, I may buy this for real..

More courts to be added later. Hmmm, The Drew League maybe? Hope so!

But if we watch the evolution of all of these games, the only one lacking is Madden. The biggest most popular sport, with every customer to them selves, they haven't as much as changed the cleats in 5 years. Let alone introduced only new catches this year. To be honest, they tweaked wr/dB interactions and for planting. But seriously! This article is what makes people take a chance and buy a new title.

They introduced new things for their title, put emphasis on certain aspects like weight/height/movements. Happy for live, sick of madden.

Love this feature! Although, still want the gameplay and speed of the game consistent as regular practice or game mode, i.e....don't want the Pro Am mode to be a cartoonish/super-arcady type of mode, if you will. Back in the day, NBA Street was pretty cool but way too arcady and silly for me. That being said, man, with no NCAA Football and a good Madden coming out, plus the NBA games--customers should not complain. I've seen videos of 2K and Live 16, and both look amazing...as well as gameplay. About time EA steps up their game!

So it looks like all of this is strictly online? I would love to have a single player mode with the Pro-Am features. I just don't play enough to be competitive online.
