NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

I like the game because it reminds me of Live 10, and thats my favorite hoop game. Game is pretty stiff but I think EA should be able to build from this.

I called 2 Gamestops and 1 WalMart to inquire about this game and I was shocked that all of them told me to stay away and to buy 2K

When I went looking for it at Best Buy I looked for a good 5 minutes and I found it buried behind copies of 2K. Hmmm. It's like companies are trying to push 2K really hard. That's cool and all but if this game doesn't come out again or someone brings another ball game just for the sake of having competition to push each other it would be a terrible thing IMO. Look at the fiasco the other title is having.

Well I have both now so I can give an honest look. Not gonna lie. Live is gonna get the most run right now

I saw a lot the past few days of the demo. After you learn the game, it looks pretty good in motion 75-80% of the time.

Happy to see more people have an open mind about the game.

I am too Earl. The game could be pretty solid with some smoother animations. The games animations were reminding me of Inside Drive for the xbox . The game had some of the worst animations, herky jerky, robotic stiff movement, but at the core, it was a crazy good game. Now, the gameplay isn't quite inside drive, but its a good game after you get past the movement. In fact, the better you get with the controls, the better you can make the game look.

Until some animations are replaced with smoother ones, there's always going to be some "off" movements, but it is much better than I would have ever thought originally.

Had one more game of the demo and finally cracked a win coming from 10 behind at the half.

On my way home now game in hand

[WTF]

If you come back from 10 down at the half, you've earned the win. If you win, you win. If you lose, you lose. No rubber banding that I've encountered thus far.
