I hope not. To each their own, I guess. If Harlan is bad, I don't know if there is anyoen who's good in this business. Please, don't tell me you have Marv Albert in mind...
He's ok, and I personally prefer him over Marv. But I still think Harlan has more personality and enthusiasm than Breen. To me, Harlan's voice is the ideal voice for this business.
I'm sure people want some change, I definitely understand it. But I'm not sure if replacing Harlan (one day it will probably happen) would turn out to be worthy.
they can add anyone but if the script isnt good then its not worth it. Just look at madden, they added a GREAT guy to their commentary team BUT the script was lame and didnt make him shine
It's a done deal. Now what matters the most is for the commentators to get a good script and good AI between them. For example if Doris Burke is telling a story and then suddenly she's interrupted because of an awesome dunk, the commentators should get back to her after, so that she can finish the story. That's just one example....
Another point that is important is that commentators should react as play happens (like in real life) and not just talk while you're playing. This will certainly stop many of the incoherences we hear from time to time.
On second thought...I'll probably turn off the commentary after a while. I have played some Live 09 recently to test it, and along with all the older Lives I played again the past 2-3 years, Kerr's voice is tattooed in my head. Unless he has whole new comments, I don't think I'll be able to take it for long.
It's like Live (Elite?) got Clark Kellogg. Would you pay attention to him again if you bought that game?
How so? Didn't the Suns reach the Western Conference Finals last year and push the Lakers in a tough 6-game series? I'd hardly call that ruining a team. He moved on before the offseason began, so you can't blame Kerr for the moves that were made heading into this season.
