Seriously, how can anyone say Live is better than 2K this year?

Live isn't even just as good as 2K10 IMO. 2K may have glitches and the online play is not that great, but this game is so Amazing even with all the faults. It looks so real unlike NBA Live which still looks a little too cartoony in my opinion.

2K's commentary blows Live's stale commentary out of the water, and 2K once again dominates in the animation department.

It also has the best and most addictive game mode in basketball video game history in My Player mode. This may have some issues too, but none of them make the mode unplayable, and it is still fun and extremely addicting to the point that I haven't even tried Association or any of the other modes yet.

The presentation is also vastly superior to Live's presentation too. All the overlays about future games, standings, league leaders etc., and all the different pre-game rituals really add to the experience. Live has the pre-game rituals too, but they don't have as much as 2k and they aren't executed as well as 2k's pre-game rituals are imo.

Honestly, I think 2K10 is the best basketball game ever, and Live is not even close. Does anyone feel the same? Does anyone feel differently? State why you disagree and feel that Live is better than 2K10 also...

I agree with most of your post, although I disagree with your thread. The gameplay is why I prefer Live 10 and it is conspicuous in its absence from your post. No one will argue that 2K has better presentation, commentary, features/modes, etc. Graphics, well that is a case of preference. I prefer Live's likenesses as well.

People can say Live is better than 2k the same way you can say the opposite-It is their opinion..Deal with it and enjoy your game.

Because it is a really good basketball game. And everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Because NBA Live 10 wipes the floor with NBA 2K10 in the gameplay department....and that is where it matters most!

2K10 has better commentary/presentational elements and modes available, but NBA Live 10....each game is different. In 2K10 all you have to do is throw a laser into the lane and dunk or lay-up all nite! lol

I have both games but will reserve full judgement until after the patches come out. But right now...NBA LIVE is back!

I think Live has good gameplay, but the animations just don't look that natural

Exactly.

And is it me or am I the only one who can't stand the "you can't do (insert glitch/abuse move)in Live/2K like you can in Live/2K" comments.
