NBA Live 16 Cover Athlete Russell Westbrook - Trailer, Screenshots and Some Features

[Mintsa]

The most important news that came our of this is that live 16 is.......

1) being shown during the e3 presser
2) they will actually release info/game features at e3

And 3).......

Live 16 will actually be playable at e3...not shown behind some closed door meeting room where only WTF and Fernando know the secret handshake to get in (joking guys...lol). Live being shown this early and being playable is HUGE NEWS!!

[WTF]

We changed it so Fernando doesn't know how to get in either

I'm really hoping I can once again purchase two basketball games. Smart money has not allowed me to do that since Live 10. Hoping for the best, and even though they're so far behind, they need to really shorten the gap and compete hard. Nice screens, the dunk, not so much.

Could've fooled me.

Yes, maybe I should've specified, but only in interviews, lol. When talking about the game for the past two years, even more, we've seen multiple interviews of them saying just how great the game is, without us seeing it for ourselves. My first statement was actually a sarcastic one. EA is very good at talking and not showing, or showing tiny bits and pieces.

Hmmm....wanna get excited about Live again. But when the cover athlete doesn't even have the same haircut in game as he does during mo-cap.....However this is year 3 of their "plan" so I'll give them one last chance. All I want is smoother animations and full player editing please 😐

Updated the OP w/ some higher definition screenshots.

Hopefully they add enough stuff to the game and its modes to be on par with 2k. Getting tired of the way 2k plays, but sometimes I take for granted all of the options that it has in comparison to Live.
