NBA Live 10 Hands-Off Preview

I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that – HAL 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey

HAL’s classic line was what ran through my head last year when Dynamic DNA was unveiled at E3 ’08. But it’s not because I thought Dynamic DNA would become a self-aware AI that one day turned on me, though, what a twist that would be. Instead it was because the idea of a learning/changing/evolving AI system was a real hard thing for me to grasp as a sports gamer. I don’t think I was the only gamer who was overwhelmed either.

It also seemed like Dynamic DNA was a hard thing for the Live developers to wield last year. Taking all that real-world data and cramming it into a game on a daily basis so the experience was always different was a huge undertaking, and it showed in NBA Live 09 as the system was only sort of “Dynamic.”

Kobe should make that face only at certain moments in the game, like when he's pulling up to drop a three while being draped by the defender late in the game. If he does it too often it will ruin the emotion of the moment. Imagine Kobe scowling after a made free throw in the first Q...lol

That's assuming you know the camera angles we're using homie

Let me just say we added facial animations for a reason....

On the preview it was written that they took the cutscenes out of the game.

Now it's everything in real time. So, I guess we'll be able to spot the facial animations during these moments.

That's what it sounds like, but the trailer posted so far says otherwise.

It's just a wait and see at this point.

"Starting with the teams, the developers are promising that each team will have a unique play style. This means the Warriors should be pushing the ball and chucking at an alarming rate, while the Magic should be about transition offense before feeding the cover athlete down low. "

these developers have been saying this since '02

Live 09 was not a constant fast break? Then I dont know what game you were playing... You can inbound the ball.. launch the ball to the center or powerforward, and they are always wide open for the open dunk under the basket. I'm guess I'm the only person that noticed that...lol

Umm thats only because of the defensive set your playing..and we're talking bout fast break as in steal the ball/block a shot and quickly score on the other end.

Did you make an account just to say that...if you did then you just wasted your time....you have your reasons for liking 2k9 we have ours for liking live 09....if 2k makes a better game than live then i ll switch...but right now 2k doesnt seem to be making any strides to make me want to switch...2ks playcalling system is BS...Graphics arent great...players are animation driven...not user driven....(meaning users have barely any control over the players).. and so many more errors in the game ...

as CZAR Wud say IF 2K10 SLIDES I WILL NOT BUY.

Edit: i ll stop here i dont want to turn this into a why live is better than 2k thread.
