I know 16 plays different, i was referring to the post being the same. Im not one of the cheddar heads that just come down and just shot threes all game, i like to take advantage of what the defense give me, and for live i can do what i want when i want too so with that being said, the post game for me it just to easy no up and under moves, no shimmy shake, bad animation on the fade away, no fighting for position.. i been playing live since lakers vs celtics on sega and 2k since the dreamcast so believe me im not knock live at all, as a big man and playing ball at the collegiate level its something i expect on a next gen console.

They honestly haven't added much to the post game as far as moves since '14....new animations but not moves...

I have to disgree this year....

You can edit the game to get more action going in the paint to fight for position.

Don't get me wrong it's still not top notch but you can tweak it somewhat

Live is years behind. Modes, gameplay, animations, movement, presentation, ect.

Gameplay is similar to this...

Only difference is Live 16 has ESPN, some more sig jumpers, better footplanting, and better graphics. But a lot of the mediocre animations are still the same, especially around the basket. Passing is still has some elements of Live on PS2.

I'll get the play the demo more over the weekend. I still have to finish the rest of the tutorial to get the controls down better. I just think NBA Live isn't a game that is taken very seriously and IMO is just past off as fun for a lot of people. Not much is expected compared to it's competitor and that's just a fact. I don't know how many years I've heard "Live has a good foundation".

Bottomline is they are so far behind. A console generation last about 6-8 years. We are already in year 2 of this generation, yet their game animates and the movements are like their PS3 game from 8 years ago. It is what it is.

You can only polish a turd but so much. You can have fun with this if you look past all of its shortcomings, but this isn't worth the $60 price of admission.

Thats good find....so basically 16 is just a polished up live 09 with a few added modes...smh
