I wouldn't mind if EA or Take Two made an International basketball game. To me the NBA gets boring from time to time, I prefer The style of play overseas myself. There are more fundamentals involved. i doubt if the game would sell because the fanbase isnt big enough but it would be cool.

I wish they could make one based on the Euroleague.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!

This looks good, I can't wait for this to release.

Personally I did not really see anything that impressed me. I'm not going either way on this one, just not enough to really make a fair opinion for me. Peace!!!!

Looks alot smoother but also looks like it needs alot of work.

Saw Kobe's sig jumper in there, looked just like 2k's kboe's J too, that's encouraging if they did it for all of the guys like 2K did.


More interested to see if they really fix the physics and animations, and if they really do add the things the devs are talking about on the EA boards then i'll buy this Live

I hope that wasn't Kobe's jumper with all that arc on it

You cant really tell much because of the way the video was shown(close ups, quick, short plays). But I really liked what I say. Graphics looked amazing, animation look much more fluid. Players seem to react better, less stiff. Like watch how the PG gaurding Fisher reacted when Gasol came up to set the pick, got down in a lower stance, placed his hand out to feel the player, etc.

I'm still a little worried that it says "Perkins" on the crawl for Kobe Bryant's shot...

someones stretching.

anyway, trailer looked pretty good...im assuming the glitches I saw is due to "work in progress"....its good they seemingly used actual game footage as apposed to CG instead....pretty smooth over all...

cant wait for more footage.

Not a bad looking trailer. I may give the game a try. Been a while since i have played Live in a few years.
 
# 34 hokupguy @ 06/19/08 08:32 AM
looks like a very early build, C's still dont have the new garden in the game.... FIBA mode bumped up more to due to the summer games this year, i like that.

Looked good. Players looked great, textures and jerseys looked great as well. I'm also wondering how much control we'll actually have in Pick and Roll Control.

One thing I didn't like was how the big men showed on PnR situations. In the Lakers and Mavs PnR's, both Garnett and Gooden showed before the guard even made his move. I don't know if that's a human making them do that or if it's the AI, hopefully it's human.

Reading the devs talk on the EA forums you have control whether you want the pick man to move, stand still or move out for a jumpshot, depending on a button or a meter or something like that.

It doesn't sound too bad if its implemented right.



BTW, my buddy in the gaming industry in Italy sent me a link from his site. I cant view it from work. Is it the same vid

Thx Mc...


Here's hoping to Mike getting alot of his ideas into the game being the Gameplay/AI programmer.

He's probably loving EA's resources
