NBA Live 14 Gameplay Trailer

[TheBuddyHobbs]

It's not just Live. All EA player models in all their games are cartoonish. They just need to revamp their art department. Because the cartoonish look isn't going to work for the next gen consoles. People have much higher expectations now.

I didn't think it was bad. Obviously needs a lot of work though.

The thing I liked the most was the Kobe fadeaway, was the most realistic looking part of the vid imo

Yeah, the bias is pretty crazy.

Obviously.

It's just frustrating watching people try to reason with you when your responses amount to nothing more than nuh uh.

I'd credit my responses with a tad bit more substance than that. But then, you're frustrated by things that you do not have a concern or care for, so you could be confused. We have ourselves quite the paradox.

No because stadium deals are done with the owner of the stadium not through the NBA licensing deal. If 2k has the MSG name it means they did a deal with MSG.

It's always been that way since EA and 2K first went up against each other. In the beginning EAs models were preferred by the majority to VC's models in both football and basketball. Only thing is over time EA rested on their models making slight tweaks and changes while VC would take their through major overhauls and in the end it appears that the VC models were kind of like the ugly duckling and were easier to turn into much better looking models.

EA sports games all seem to have a cartoonish look to them. While some might like that most probably don't. The cartoonish look for sports games won't cut it this next gen. They will find out the hard way I believe.

Not some souped up commercial to make it look great. Heck, that car company may have a better marketing department than it's competitor but the car may drive like crap. But these guys are sitting back just laughing. Less than 30 days before launch and you're showing us angles? Man, Precious can look good in a cropped pic with a filter put on it. I hear you man. See above. These dudes are laughing though. They're counting the preorders & forecasts in like, "Suckers!" as they prepare their Day 1 patches to push to Sony & MS.

Did you people honestly expect the first real trailer of substance to just be 2 guys playing against each other while we watched? You knew this was a trailer to show us more than an 8 second clip. The gameplay stuff with people playing the game will come out soon enough.
