Played another game, Cavs vs. Wolves and it's just not good. It feels almost like a chore to move around and get things flowing. The graphics look only slightly upgraded over 14 in default camera during 5 on 5 action. The easiest thing I can compare it to is when I used to play computer games years ago and it would look beautiful up close running everything at high graphics, but I had to downgrade them for speed purposes, so graphics would take a noticeable leap back.

I love the menus. I like how the graphics look during the tutorial. Some moves are over powered and going to hoop isn't a matter of strategy, just a matter of when and who you want to do it with. This game feels and looks like a patch to Live 14 in all areas, not a genuine new experience. That's typical for sports game year after year, but an upgrade to Live 14 isn't exciting. There are some good elements here that if they built from ground up and added them in (atmosphere, ESPN, menus, shoes, close ups) they would have a solid base.

Ok whats up with the ball bouncing off the rim then hitting floor and neither side grabbing the rebound while its in the air???? this has happened back to back....And the ball does a crazy morph to end up behind number 10's head lol

I didn't play NBA Live 14, but this game surprised me. I agree there isn't much off-the-ball movement unless commanded via controller, and both teams shot a high FG percentage in the one game I played. It's also far too easy to strip guards for steals and breakaway dunks. But the game looks good and is more fluid than I imagined.

But the game is fun. It's definitely geared more toward one-on-one skill moves and isolation than the more team-oriented gameplay of NBA 2K15.

I'd be content if it was the only NBA game on the market. Problem is, there's a far superior title already on shelves. I would be interested in NBA Live 15 if it sold for $30. But it doesn't appear to be worth the same price as NBA 2K15.
