(teammate). THE LIST GOES ON! IMO, live 13 has a decent foundation for future iterations of the series, the video is probably from an earlier build or maybe not, but from what i saw, it looked decent. there was player differential in terms of body build and speed/quickness, passing seemed solid, and the likenesses of the players looked good. its by no means perfect but it is a good start coming from scratch. to be clear im not a fanboy of either series just the sport of basketball itself and from what i saw i liked... troll on that f.....ers

2k might have all of those problems, but it is still a better and more realistic game than this out of date crap, PERIOD. Im not writing a paragraph to prove my point because once you look at both of these games you could actually see which one the majority of people would like more.

I was really hoping Live would bring something, but after watching the video I can’t even express how disappointing it is. If they were not calling out the names I could not tell Westbrook from Charlmers, Ibaka from Wade. They all seem to move, stand and shoot the same. This video would have been beast, if it was 1996 and the system was a Playstation.
I am half hoping that 2k moves on to a brand new engine and declares there current one open source so we can see some competition next year, this year will be the 3rd straight one basketball title year.

I can honestly say NBA Live 03 looks better than this game

It does look like an early build, from 2007. This game looks terrible. I had to turn it off, the lifeless generic players was putting me to sleep. I use to play EA basketball until I was introduced to 2K basketball in 2009. I will never go back, especially not for this crap.

Let's face it: Presentation is WOW! The rest kind of sucks...

I am not going to pile on Live, but this post needs a reality check. YOU seem to forget that The Live franchise had a 10 year head start with Lakers Vs Celtics. You forget that the worse versions of 2K were across platform generations, but the series has consistently improved. You forget that for every issue in 2K, a concerted effort to fix those issues pops up quite quickly every subsequent year or two. You list nitpicks of the game, yet you neglect to mention that those same nitpicks and more exist in Live. So, why try to tear down that game to defend Live. Is it VC's fault that people feel disappointed in this video? Stay off the completion. It's called deflection and it's a sad way to defend your apparent favorite title.
