This paper manual really should have shipped with the game:

"Throughout the season, CourtQ and Synergy Sports will update the rosters, ratings and tendencies of all available teams and players in the demo."

So far this has not been the case. Iguodala still in the lineup for one.

I can't find this demo, or any other demos, on PSN store.

Just go to the Games section under the Store tab and click there. It will have the option do download the demo. There is no "Demo" section like the old generation.

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Got my PS4 GS Black Friday bundle delivered last night, played "the other game" for awhile then downloaded this demo pretty excited to finally play it after reading/watching literally hundreds of impressions online. A few impressions.. .. ..

Something is just weird about jumpshooting. The ball doesn't feel like the player is 'releasing' it, but rather it kinda slingshots up at the rim. Also, ball/rim physics are just off at times. Ball looks amazing though, net looks good too (when it's *reacting* properly to the ball).

Boilerbuzz was certainly on point with everything he was saying concerning expectations around dribbling before launch, and responsiveness. Totally get what he meant now. Dribbling is certainly decent, but responsive is not how I would describe it. Actually, movement in general seems like it's on an ever-so-slight delay between your input and the movement.

I like the ESPN presentation elements. Just flat out looks cool, and hopefully in coming years they can really get the actual commentary animations and player models up to par to match it.

I realize this is the demo so can't really critique the modes/diff team behaviors, rosters, etc. Lack of practice mode, player editing and roster manipulation would be HARD to look past though.

They've REALLY gotta make sig style a priority going forward. The NBA is so dynamic, almost every player shoots runs and plays different, they've GOTTA capture that.

I think the heat and disappointment is coming from the plain fact that this just seems so far below what we thought we'd get with this game.
That Kyrie clip shooting over DeAndre Jordan back in the summer, why did EA even do it?
