They definitely need to do this. But I don't think they've said anything about MyCareer yet.

If the game plays as good as it looks....best game ever.

Absolutely stunned. This is what Madden and FIFA failed to deliver. I have a hard time telling what's real and what's a video game. EA still looks cartoonish.

If and it's a BIG "if" Live gets their gameplay to catch up with the features, I'd say 2k would need to be on their heels. Either way, I'm getting both games because a change of pace is always needed.

Features like what exactly? Its not about being close minded. They have earned they're place in my mind. 2k wont need to be on they're heels. Long way to go for that. Unless you don't like 2k the question is what have they done to lose ground. For me, nothing. They continue to deliver. But I love the game and the consistency of the product. They don't have to reinvent the game of basketball.

I will buy live if it is worth me buying. I wont buy it for the sake of having it or because I like the commentary or for competition.

If its not better. Its just not.

That's what im hoping comes along with these eco-motion improvements. AI is the most important aspect to me personally when it comes to sports games. MyPlayer needs sliders even if they do improve the AI. I think we should be able to edit our teammates tendencies in some way.

Football's emotions is different then basketball. In football the emotions come from acrobatic catches, devastating hits, perfectly timed blocks, scrambling QB's ability to pin point pass on the run, RB's spinning out of the hands of defenders or stiffing arming them to the ground. All this stuff has been done before but the emotional part comes from the fluidity and natural look of it all and that's where Madden's biggest problems lye. Madden's jittery unnatural animations take you out of reality and reminds you it's just a game where as next gen NBA 2K14's animations are silky smooth and the transitional animations natural looking. Football"s emotions can not be expressed through facial animations because of helmets on the players but instead portrayed through the athleticism of the sport.
