Haha, awesome.

I was just kidding man.

The quick cut to Harden from above when he's going for that lay-up looked real. The lighting, skin textures, faces. Damn.

I know some people are going to reply but be smart. I'm not a fanboy of any bb game. I've owned 2k10-13...

Seems those posts ALWAYS start with the "I'm not a fanboy" disclaimer. Not to mention he/she posted it FOUR times.

What 2K did or didn't do with MLB is completely irrelevant, just as I think whatever EA did or didn't do with Madden is irrelevant when talking about NBA Live. Fact remains that 2K releases a very good game of basketball every year.

And Live/Elite 11-13 was way worse than MLB. EA isn't being "decent" by not releasing a crappy, terrible looking game. They're just trying to save what little dignity they have and trying not to do irreparable damage to their label after doing shoddy work year to year.

I'm not sure where the cats and dogs portion of the analogy is coming from. But taking the rest of your analogy: You're asking whether I would rather eat at a new restaurant with the same menu as an older restaurant, but newer equipment, and fresher food. Or I can try a new, rebranded place with new chefs and an unknown menu.

Lol. What I am saying is that Live, the "new" restaurant, has been closed because it's been preparing sketchy food while advertising a gourmet menu. It's an old joke that Chinese restaurants secretly serve cats and dogs.

I wasn't saying that the graphics looked equal. I was saying that we can't tell anything from these kinds of videos, because they don't show us uncut, unedited gameplay.

Sorry, you did actually say that video of PC with mods looked better than next-gen:

This is NBA 2k13 PC. With the exception of facial expressions, it looks just as good, if not better, than this TV Spot.

And to that, we all said, Um, NO. Regardless, it's an apples to grapes comparison. The video you posted was heavily post-processed. The TV spot was mostly edited but raw gameplay.

Anyway, to temper expectations, I do expect next-gen 2k to exhibit some of the same foot planting issues as current gen 2k. I see a bit of that in the video already. The gameplay will be solid 2k14 gameplay, hopefully further enhanced on next-gen, but will look phenomenally better. For what it's worth, I don't think Live will do much better in the foot planting area except for the ball handler-- you can see a lot of twitchy animations in the background of every player not named Kyrie. EA tried hard to edit them out of the shot where possible but some of it actually looks quite bad. The foot planting issue is not solved in either franchise yet.

I try not to respond to trolls, but where did you hear Live has wingspan in the game?

I'm sorry, but this bit of logic, in my opinion, is the most BROKEN bit of logic I've seen on these message boards.

Its no use talking Logic with a few of those Live guys trolling the 2k forum they have already made up their minds with little to no info that Live is the better game.
