NBA Live 14 Reviews From Around the Web

[Dizmode]

This has to hurt....Thank God I read those two reviews before I went to pick it up this morning....a Demo is normally not the full features so that wont help either....oh well as usual EA you failed a TON of people.....maybe I can use it so my niece can something to practice with before they have to play a real basketball game I guess.....lets get our hopes up for Live 15.....4 years ...4 years

In fact most teams start to feel like they are the San Antonio Spurs and we all know that’s not fun.

So, most teams feel like they lead the league in PPG, and run up and down the court trying to score as much as they can?

Clearly, the reviewer on this site knows nothing about basketball, claiming that the new Spurs play like the old Spurs of years ago. This is where I stopped reading.

I agree, Madden, was def. one of the games I worried about as well as live, but, Madden was a BIG SURPRISE overall on ps4, I LOVE IT!! So I am going to try the demo of live, but, I am thinking/hoping that it goes like Madden and I am pleasantly surprised! Although, Madden did look good to me at times, before I actually got my hands on it. Live hasn't looked good at all.

The writing is on the wall, yet and still people will defend this game like they work for the company. I'm all for competition, but this doesn't fall in that category. Game looks like its running on a ps2, animations are still not fluid. This looks like the first year in a 3 year dev cycle. Some people have that Jessie Jackson mentality, "Keep hope alive". Power to y'all. You gonna buy this game, defend it, force yourself to like, complain, then scream for a patch. Ill pass yet again.

Man that is just humiliating for the Live devs. It's the lowest score I've ever seen IGN give a game. But after watching streams of it, the rating is spot on.

You must have played the game a lot to know that the rating is spot on. Oh wait, you only saw streams

Sure - that's your right as a consumer. You can even purchase the game if you like.

But this is more than just "one bad review from IGN". The writing was on the wall. EA was protecting this game til its release. The videos they did provide were underwhelming and looked previous gen. I'd be shocked if the OS review is above a 6. Metacritic's average will be really bad by the time December rolls around.

LOL. You have posted yourself that you don't have the game yet either, and all you have been doing is defending this terrible excuse of a basketball simulation all throughout the Live forums.
