NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

[The 24th Letter]

and since we keep bringing it up, let's face it, there's a 99.9% the "other option" is coming out last year...we can't call that percentage for this game...so I think the focus should be on what NBA Live 14 can do better...not the fact that the "other option" has the same flaws or worse...that doesn't help this game at all...or matter quite honestly..

but anyway, I did actually have a question for you guys...

How do you guys feel about the distance in which "take offs" begin? Do you feel you have to be too close to the goal, or do you think it's ok as is?

Who criticized the game for being live 10?

I never said I wanted a rehashed game from 4 years ago to come out. That game is dated as heck so I'm not sure why anyone would want an old game. A company like Sony would be ripped to shreds for releasing a rehashed nba 09 with roster updates. It was fine for its time but not now.

We can all pretend this game is setting a bar on a new system with its built from the ground up stuff but it's not. As Pared said it's nothing new if you will. Whether that's cool or not to you is up for you to determine. It definitely isn't new though.

I've said several times now I see recycled code in this game and I mentioned elite and live 13 specifically. I don't see how you can misinterpret that

First guys criticized the game for not being Live 10... now its being criticized for"sharing code" with Live 10 and everything that "I'm" raving about was in Live 10. I give up. Apparently all of the things that I enjoy about the game have already been done in another game, hell, probably done better in another game. You can easily see all that the game has to offer in an hour. Right? Thats right... because its Live 10 and we've played it before. Whatever you guys say. I'll continue to enjoy my game.

What are you giving up on? This is a little dramatic, don't you think?

They were probably going to release it on the PS3/360 they knew this wasn't a true next gen game i remember watching the Irving E3 trailers getting so hype then i saw the Nash small clip that came out it was a total disappointment i know graphics aren't everything but hopefully the patch that comes soon can improve them a little bit

[WTF]

When you mention that the things guys are praising in the game (me) were already in Live 10, I just have to shake my head and give up on my stance that this game is NOT Live 10. I'll continue to give my impressions of the game to those who will listen and who are possibly on the fence to buy the game. I can name double digit numbers of guys who are glad that they read my impressions and are seeing the same things that I am.

To guys who aren't happy with it, thats cool. But to come into a thread and tell people that the good parts of the game were already in Live 10, that's where I disagree wholeheartedly. I'll leave it at that.

Man they said the 360 wasn't powerful enough for this game....something of that nature as the reason why they went nex gen only. Not that that's really true but that's what was said in particular to why it wasn't released on both gens.

Not powerful? ..oh wow if a game like GTA or AC with amazing graphics for CG could take it im pretty sure live could have

I'm not going back and forth with you on this as you're too personally invested and I'm not sure why. I've seen a lot of the good and bad from the Live series in this title and I simply don't agree. A little more than an hour isn't much to form an opinion on for some but in that time I saw much of what I liked and disliked in Live from the more recent titles (Elite withstanding).

I did see some good, some bad and not what I would call a "complete" title (but at least it works!). That doesn't mean things they had in Live previously aren't there. And hey, it's basketball so it doesn't make sense to scrap it all. But the good didn't outweigh the bad for me. The game is shallow to me.

Oddly enough, I did enjoy playing the demo via remote play on the PS4. Wouldn't mind playing this on the go.

And I'm glad you're selling people on the game. That's the beauty of a community.
