NBA Live 14 Signature Styles, Controls, Coaching Strategies, Adjustments & More

I have this coming through gamefly, definately won't spend $65 on it unless I'm blown away with my rented copy. I still can't believe we haven't seen more actual 5 vs 5 gameplay thus far. EA acting kind-of cocky right now.

all this talk is cheap ...5 years w/o a game, and then no actual game footage within weeks of release, I mean, srsly.....

Live sounds like its game is more focused on fundamentals then 2k. I don't care about the graphics. If the game respects defensive fundamentals, ratings, and the advantages of organized offense and defense then live will be a good game. I have grown tired of the turbo, isolation, and 1 basketball of the last 2 years. Now you never know with ea. All this could be lip service, but if the blog is true (IF) then live will get a lot of my time. I appreciate this gameplay blog. We 2 weeks out and we know knowing about the GAMEPLAY aspects of the next gen games. Smh

If I had a nickel for every time someone's said "Where's the 5 v 5 gameplay"...

It will happen when it happens.

The dribble moves like robotic, indeed. But the defensive assignments seem cool on paper, want to see how that plays out. But as for gameplay vids, it will happen when you get the game in your house. Let's face, they are not going to show gameplay, EA won't risk losing out on that money.

The dribble moves do like nice, but does EA think we are naive. We need to see how all this translates to 5 on 5 game play on both sides of the ball. For a game trying to win over a community, they are doing a terrible job with all their secrecy. I want to see them be successful with this franchise, but they are slowing destroying themselves because a majority of the consumers in the basketball video game market do not trust them.

Except the hold plays a movie (that you can interrupt) instead of shooting.

Based on what? All we've seen is dribbling!
