NBA Live 10 Blog: So Amazing

[Nephilim]

When you guys that nitpick so much IRL go to play real game, do you just care about which shoes you wear, how your jersey looks etc.? Or do you actually care about not knowing how to shoot or even dribble? I guess you don't .
2k and EA have different approaches to the bball, but as long as the core game will be real ball as much as possible, well both games will deserve my money and time. And this year I think both will really be worth it.

There really is no excuse for it. The videos that ea are posting are definitely an improvement, but I'm not impressed. I expected it. They had no choice...It's been 5 yrs into the life of next gen. But from the videos you can tell besides the new size up and hustle animations the game will have the same feel. The block shot animations and lay up animations need to be improved and I'm sure it will be in live 11. But why are they so far behind? Live has never been worth $60 bucks and this year's installment looks to be closer to really looking like a next gen game. However no one will know until we play the demo and feel how it plays. I can't get excited about SCRIPTED gameplay vidoes sorry. The graphics are improved from last year also but they look too cartoonish. Really not very appealing to my eyes, but it looks better than live 09. But there is no excuse for stealing ppls money in the past with that crap they marketed as basketball and wasn't. Xbox and PS3 are too powerful for the limitations of live's past titles. Where's the work. Where was the effort to give the consumer a realistic basketball experience? Their past titles tells me that they really didn't care. Now it seems like they do, but they don't deserve a pat on the back because...IT'S BEEN 5 YEARS IN TO THE NEXT GEN'S LIFE. Pathetic. BTW...why would anyone buy 2 basketball games every year, especially when 1 is so much more inferior to the other. That's borderline ********. More often than not the games don't hold a lot of replay value when the new one comes out anyway.

you sound like a ******...

My 1st EA game was lakers vs. celtics and bulls vs. blazers etc. This is the way I feel about live and I know the devs of the gm read these things and their are a lot of ppl who were loyal to EA that feel the same way I do. They need to hear it. I think I have a right to GIVE MY OPINION being that this is a free country. I must of hit a nerve, cuz you buy both games every year. LOL. It doesn't make sense to me, cuz I don't practice wasting money on inferior sports video games. Makes more sense to buy which one you think is better or more to your liking. And every since live 2001/PS2, live has always been inferior and has been behind in realism and gameplay. It takes them 3-5 years to "get it". And that is MY OPINION ALSO. I'm done. You won't hear from me again. Good night to you sir. LOL.

Magic welcome to the OS man ! Don't let the gentlemens run you off so quickly . If you like hoops the forums should be a blast this year. I know ... your upset as most of us had been, with the effort or apparent lack thereof in past live's . Don't let what happened in the past keep you from playing what looks to be one heck of a game this year. New team new focus new direction.

Marcus, tell us there's time to fix this before the game ships (sorry, couldn't control myself, last nitpick LOL).

Don't hold me to it until I ask Santos again, but I think we did the font based on the reference the NBA sent us. I THINK this might be their font for this upcoming season. Also, your Nuggets uni question -- we only have the ability to have one font per jersey (that includes color). That Nuggets jersey has different colors for the numbers on the front and back, we're not able to do that.

Good thing not many teams had different colors for the numbers on the front and back. That Nuggets Throwback you've been showing us is probably the only one
