:bowdown: Live is back :applause:

They win just by adding The Rucker Park in their game.

[no pun intended]

Animations and texture still looks awkward as hell. Live is gonna be a bust again...

2K has MJ and other Legends. 2K has better gameplay. 2K is just better.

Live will never recapture its title as the #1 basketball sim.

2K got that title on lock forever.

[#number6ix#]

Show me some live gameplay I bet it looks like shit

[CarlosBoozer]

I'll never understand why EA sucked so much with NBA live, they had the resources and the technology plus thousands of workers and yet they couldn't compete with 2k.. Someone explain?

[MP.Trey]

Pro-Am? So they jacked 2k's idea, right down to the name? :roll:

Keep taking them L's EA.

[outbreak]

still looks janky and i bet the game play is buggy and shit, they did an interview after last years game with the lead and he said they don't expect to make a release they are proud of until 2017 and they hope fans stick by them while they try. the heads at EA had given them 4 years to work on the project and get it selling.

Sad, ain't it? Live never recovered from the aborted Live '11. They'll never live down Andrew Bynum's Jesus glitch. That YouTube vid had me dyin'. :oldlol:

There hasn't been a good NBA Live since 05.

[sdot_thadon]

There hasn't been a good NBA Live since 05.
2006 was good but they started from scratch for the next Gen systems and totally screwed it up. I didn't touch it again until 2010. The best game in the series, and the last time they had a game better than 2k. They for unknown reasons decide to rebuild from scratch, while 2k further developed what they had after stealing some game from ea, got all the legends and never looked back.

Can't front though, that trailer is nice.

[dunksby]

Of course your retarded ass would prefer Live :roll:

[JimmyMcAdocious]

I hope Live is good. 2K's been slacking lately.

[NattyPButter]

Always played 2K and never cared for Live but from what i'm seeing this years game looks nice. Also getting sick of 2K animations taking over the game game for u. Still waiting for 2k to show some gameplay too because last years game has way to many problems. 2K is gonna to have to get them graphics better too since Live is starting to look better.

[Giaodollo]

I love that Live is trying. 2k needs competition to step up their game.

[NattyPButter]

Plz tell me you're joking and not just stupid? Pro AM is not something 2K made up.

[uber]

can't even remember the last good NBA Live game

[Wally450]

I'd say 03, but that was the only one I got. I'd still play Live 03 today if I could get updated rosters.

[niko]

Everything i've seen of Live makes it look better than last year but still not even remotely close to 2K. Not sure what any of you have seen that is different.

[MP.Trey]

They announced their Pro-Am game mode like over a month ago. I never pay attention to Live anymore so I don't know but are you saying Live announced theirs first?

[Shade8780]

Meanwhile, over at 2K...

I like that Live is trying, but really, the exact same name? :oldlol:

[Rake2204]

The Live Pro-Am actually looks pretty cool. Always a fan of games including real life outdoor parks. 2K used to have a pretty in-depth selection in that regard back in the 00's. That said, I do not play online so I'm doubting this mode would offer much for me.

[miles berg]

I look forward to Live hopefully figuring it out and vaulting past 2K again. I'm older, my generation grew up on Live, sad to see what it became.

I still remember like it was yesterday how badass NBA Live 95 was when the series debuted. It was overwhelmingly better than anything had been to that point. I was mesmerized.

[Dbrog]

Just standing there like JEEESUS! Anyone? :lol

I had to work with NBA Showdown '94 for two years (I didn't get NBA Live '95). Showdown had its moments, the signature dunk packages were awesome (and the ability for Shaq to shatter the backboard), but it was altogether a clunky game.

My first Live was '96, for Sega Genesis (then PC). Many a-hours spent on those games. That was the first basketball game to have create-a-player, and they had a secret database where if you entered a legend's name or a drafted player from that season into Create-a-Player, their face and attributes would pop up.

[Richie2k6]

Actually looks decent. Jumping physics look awkward but the dribbling is on point

[STATUTORY]

:facepalm most of those players too much of a punk to ever even play at rucker park

where Kobe at?

You're ****ing retarded to assume shit before doing any research.

The world would be better without people like you.

I don't do research about things I don't care for bruh. 2k announced this exact same thing a while ago and this is the first I'm hearing about it from Live. Prove me wrong or gtfo.

[k0kakw0rld]

From 2k12-2k15 there is litterally no difference in the gameplay. ll 2K dose is re-use the same games and add new features to plase their fans. It's horrible, you an clearly see the improvement with Live over the years. That Elite game was horrible :oldlol:

[NBAplayoffs2001]

All I remember is playing NBA Live was more fun than NBA 2k IMO.

[f0und]

only way they could bury nba 2k is if they went out and bought the exclusive rights to make an nba game, like what they did with the nfl.

If you don't research then how you expect to learn anything. Pro AM is not a game mode or a thing 2K made up. Have you never heard of Pro AM over the years or even decades? Then you think that EA just copied 2K when it take time and research to make the parks and terminals they made. Both companies had the idea to add Pro AM this year. It's just Live has real parks. Also 2K's isn't really Pro AM but more like Pro AM Crew with fake courts and not playing with the pros with amateurs. Probably still be playing against 7 foot PGs in 2K.

I think it's a different game from 2K12 and 2K13. Now it's the same game from 2K14 but rely to heavy on animations and make me feel like i'm barely playing. I think their hiding game play because I don't think they changed much and us 2K hardcores will notice it.

Arcade usually is more fun than simulation. Run and gun cheesiness (Live and Madden).

I prefer a game that plays more like real life.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Last good Live game was 2005, imo. I recall it better than 2k... And that was the year 2k football overtook Madden (which was also amazing that year). Golden era of sports game. :cry:

Crazy how far behind Live has fell tho. Doesn't EA practically own the market for every other sports game? Fifa, Madden, MMA, PGA, NHL... Figure they would want basketball, too.

well 2K doesn't play like real life could be the reason why simulation hasn't been on the game case in the last few years. Been very arcadish like the last few years.

Of course I've heard of real life Pro Am. Why would that even come up when discussing a fictional game mode? Fact: 2k announced their game mode first. Fact: EA decided to not even change the name of the mode to avoid confusion. That deserves some f*cking criticism, why are so many people up my ass about this? I do tons of research on things I care about but I'm sorry I'm not really that passionate about EA's basketball video games. I just find it funny that EA thought releasing a trailer about a game mode that is nearly identical to one 2k already has announced (And has the EXACT same name) would be a good idea. I'd be making fun of 2k if the roles were reversed.

[Rab]

Live 95 on the PC was my price possession as a youngster. So many memories playing that game. I'd like to see Live challenge 2K as I think 2K has gotten complacent. I just don't think it'll happen for some time if ever.

EA doesn't need to change the name when it's the real thing. 2K on the other hand isn't even the real Pro AM, but more of Crew with the Pro AM name attached to it. There is no confusion if you keep up with the basketball world and know what Pro AM is and is about. I'm not passionate about EA's basketball games either. But you seem to not what you're talking about. Pro AM is a thing not a game mode and the way 2K has it set up is fake and is not the real thing. EA has the the right to call it Pro AM while 2K should actually just change the name to Crew or Pro AM Crew.

[Rake2204]

Kind of a bummer of a caveat for some interested in Live 16: there will be zero manual player editing allowed this year. That means no accessory changes, no attributes alterations, no jersey number changes, nothin'. Kind of crazy that can be left out of a game in this day and age. http://www.operationsports.com/forums/nba-live/849889-no-nba-player-roster-editing-nba-live-16-confirmed.html

So you don't really play then yeah?

[Timmy D for MVP]

I cannot believe that EA is trying to put out Live still. I mean I guess if you have the licensing you might as well.

You didn't play them then.

[tragicbronson]

I want Live to get better so that 2k has some competition, and it looks like it's getting better but 2k is still miles ahead, but i hope Live will get closer, it would be nice to have 2 really good games to play. I am looking at this live gameplay video that has been out and movements and animations still look stiff and a bit robotic.
