We'll see how it unfolds, but I'd be completely shocked if 2k doesn't rule the roost for at least another year when it comes to reviews and, more importantly, sales. I'd probably rather play 2k14 on the 360 than Live on the One based on that terrible gameplay clip.

Maybe EA is just terrible making trailers lol

The other 98% ran out of Kool-aid. Maybe people WANT a glitch free online experience in the digital age, and realized that you can only improve graphics so much. (Yes, I agree 2K14 looks nice in HD, as does GTA V, but the majority of the masses don't have a top of the line HDTV, but I'd bet most have a stable internet connection for everything not named NBA2k14, ....or GTA V for that matter. We can do and learn almost everything on the internet these days, except play ONE lag free, glitch free NBA2k14 game mode online. Bring on competition and see the changes for the better...of course starting next year. Save some of the Kool-aid for me though, because if LIVE Flops my copy will be returned too, but we will have our "competition" next year, and at least its back.

This was such a horrible example. Jeez people really grasp for straws on here don't they.
Your "equation" doesn't take into account that:

1. Not everyone that watches a video like/dislikes it.
2. Not everyone watching a video has an account to like/dislike it.
3. The fact that you can only like/dislike a video once, but at the same time can watch a video more than once making the ratio between votes and views inflated.

How about you take a look at the comments instead.

"lol..my *** u being playing nba like this....im a PC gamer too, and a huge 2k fan... even with mods, the current PC version wouldnt look like this...either ur seriously blind or dont know how to compare ****"

"I'm a PC gamer, and you are a ******, we couldn't have played NBA like this because this is a completely new engine. Please stop embarrassing the PC gaming community and grow up."

I really think Live needs to step it's game up. What happened to that demo of Kyrie Irving dribbling the ball at E3. That looked so beautiful I showed it to all my friends and said the exact words "don't sleep on Live young 2k heads". Now Live got me looking like a damn fool.

Where as NBA Live 14 has 1,796 likes divided by 5,938 dislike= 30% likes vs. 70% dislikes. A huge discrepancy among the two games. When you factor in NBA 2K has 983,000 views vs. NBA Live 14's 398,000 views it's even a bigger discrepancy considering only 2% disliked NBA 2K14 and there video is under way more scrutiny considering the view count difference vs. NBA Live 14.

Now that's math.

Maaaaaan, I tried to hard to remain optimistic, but I can't with this.

I really felt like I was watching NBA Live 10 2.0. Nothing looked fluid or authentic. Everything looked stiff and scripted. I'm really scared to see this game in 5 on 5 action because it already feels like the same ole same ole from EA. And why is the rim so big in comparison to the ball? Wtf!?!?

Which I guess I really can't say that I am all that surprised, but man I was expecting more than this. Coming a Live fan (not blind loyalist), I couldn't be more disappointed. I honestly felt that they were on their way to righting the ship. Had more community involvement, were admitting their past mistakes and vowing to prove themselves, and this is what comes out??? Just...wow.

Here we have a troll in a real NBA Live basketball fan's clothing. Weak.

To explain, is to provoke, but..., it was a satirical retort of the previously quoted, inaccurate information.

Now, there is an OS Sports

Thread

more akin to YOUR fanatic disposition, and it doesn't require your lack of wit, or your unbiased opinion, just your deep, deep fanaticism to help fix their issues.

@tsbmolina. It (quoted post) was to be taken as seriously as the SIMPLE methodology used for the data given in the original post I quoted. His original numbers were laughable for the same reasons you jumped my post, but I respect your need for correct facts too. Again, it was satire only.

The point is ,the trailer is not disappointing, because it didn't really show anything, unless of course you were looking for sluggish gameplay in slo-mo, and ripped superheroes, which were not in the NBA Live trailer.

Whether you love it or hate it, and we all will do both, NBA Live will be back, but now, we actually get to give the good feedback thy will desperately need, so that they can make it better and more enjoyable game, much faster. Thats what series fans should be most excited about.

EA's other sports efforts this year have been good to great depending on who you ask. NBA Live should be par for that course.

It's just a trailer, we can not be sure one wayor the other until we play the real game or at least until we see some gameplay with the proper setup...

I do love basketball and I am a little bit tired of that other game and its arcade online gameplay (at least in ranked and myteam games) so I will give NBA Live 14 the benefit of the doubt...

Cheers!
