NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

[poloelite]

EA Sports and the NBA Live team have done NOTHING to deserve ANY optimism. After Elite, Live 13 and Live 14, I have no idea why anyone would believe that they're capable of anything good until it is shown. The best thing I've heard about NBA Live in the last 4 years is that after a couple of patches, Live 14 was actually playable if you were a super fan of the series and wanted to drink their kool aid. I maintain that EA has put out one decent basketball game since the birth of the 360/PS3 era and that was Live 10. The guy who put that game together left 2K for a year to do it. Ever since the games have gotten more complicated and more highly scrutinized, they have struggled. Competition showed us they couldn't cut it, I just wish football had competition, we would have more innovation.

NBA live is horrible and has been for a long time, they should just give up. After October they will !

Ahhh man..That was a low blow..I wish they would be more descriptive on what the 500+ gameplay improvements relate too..Does that include animations or other things like game mode changes..B/c they said they added 400 dunks..so....

Yeah but.. 2k has been a machine with the NBA2k series and it still takes them deep into the year to reveal anything, and we still haven't seen any real gameplay video, just cg/replay videos.

Trust me, if 2K still had the license, Madden wouldn't even be existing right now...I put money on it...Well 2K just released their trailer this week...So is Live really all that far behind?? That's if they truly do release it this upcoming week...

I'm getting that also. I'm assuming he has. I didn't bother to ask, because I know he won't reveal if he has or hasn't. But I believe he's either played the game or seen it. Just my opinion.
