I just noticed how great the lighting looks

Nice looking vid, the in paint collisions seem close to non-existent, but stuff on the perimeter looks on point....My issue with Live is...whats with the CORNY FEATURES names?? Quickstrike ANKLE BREAKERS??...how many "anklebreakers" do you really see in structured basketball..point im trying to make here is, that real hoopers who want to play a real hoops game like myself, are turned off by such catchy features and names, it just a bit too "gimmicky" if you will

your right. but at this point I don't care what "they" call it. If it plays good, and has a pretty good sense of ai, im in. matter of fact im in, anyway. It looks to have taken the obvious step over 08 that im definitely in. quirky animations and all. I allready know I will have a love it and hate it with this game. so close, yet not just right...lol.

Lol yeah I feel u..ive really been playing 2K only since..well nba 2k..but every year i hope live is decent enough..stopped caring like 2 years ago, but this year the hope is SLIGHTLY back (cause theyve done such a good job with FIFA counterpart lately), no one's saying it has to be 2K..just good enough so at least its an alternate, would love to have 2 different good ball games i can run leagues in

I noticed this picture in the article. Are you able to edit shoes this year?

[Jano]

Yeah we can edit accessories this year. Also one of the EA developers has said that the Live 365 feature will edit accessories too. So if there are problems like that on release day we should get fixes for that in future updates if you don't feel like fixing them yourself.

Sweet!! Thanx.

Dude that is a great Iverson Player model, damn! Look at the skin detail and the arm and leg definition...

BTW! Video looked great, can't wait for the demo to try the new movements.
