What's up with the frozen postures for the guy in the background in the first pic? And the referee and coach in the second? lol
 
That looked like hot garbage.

We are under a month until the PS4 comes out, it's ridiculous that we have seen so little of all these sports games

In the case of 2K I believe they've said that they simply wanted to get the current-gen versions out before focusing their attention on the next-gen versions.

Lol at the replies saying this looks alright for the PS3/360 versions only to find out there isn't any versions for those systems.

I really want this to be good just so we can have some competition again and I could have some variety in basketball games, not to mention the fact that Kyrie Irving is on the cover which makes me HAVE to have it but it's going to be hard to stick to that if it's years behind 2K still and I'd be wary of getting the first game in its reboot on a new engine considering how many weird problems happened in the past with EA Sports game and their physics. In the end, I know it will be lacking and I'll end up skipping it which will piss me off that they wasted Irving for this year.

I do like how they want to improve ball-handling physics but it's got to be perfect for it to work since there's so many things that can go wrong and Live is so far behind 2K in other areas that it won't be a big enough difference to dethrone 2K's awesomeness.

You know they're taking pride in their physics though considering that's why Kyrie Irving is on the cover (great young player obviously too but it's mostly because of his dribbling which lends itself to these new physics).

I just wish 2K would give PC players the full game instead of relying solely on modders to do shit they never would do and the fact that they never gave us the updated lighting model from the consoles was really stupid as well. I knew better than to expect the next-gen version on PC, that's for sure...lol

The only hope is that this is some footage from some leaked early alpha or something and not the trailer that will be released.

Why do people want NBA Live to be so good when 2K is already so good? Competition is fine and all, but EA's version of competition against 2K seems to be "we can't beat em, so might as well sign an exclusive agreement with the sports leagues."

This just makes me even more angry that EA has the exclusive license of the NFL.

Just shows that there could be a football game for next gen that looks so much better.
 
If you had never seen any PS4 or XBO game footage of any kind for any game, walked into a room and saw NBA Live, yeah maybe you would think that. But then if they walked you into a room and showed you NBA 2k's game, yeah then you would think Live looks bad.
I've seen 2k and pretty much every PS4 game announced. So yeah.

You don't know why someone would want something to be good??

Is this some sort of new hipster bullshit?


I've never been a fan of the products that NBA Live has put out, but that certainly wouldn't deter me from WANTING a good product.

Sorry man, I still blame them for locking 2K games from making NFL games by signing an exclusive agreement with the NFL after 2K's NFL game took a large chunk of their sales. Fuck EA's version of "competition". So yeah, I want them to fail on their sports franchises.

How else do you expect 2K to ever answer for online fuckups?
 
they should just go full arcade with this game, instead of trying to make a sim. Get wacky, bring back the 'push' button and everything.

So much this. All you have to do is take a look at NBA Live then look back at NBA2K to realize the type of talent EA has working on their sports franchises(Madden and Live in particular). Those devs down at Tiburon really have got to be ashamed of the garbage theyve been spewing out.
 
Like someone on Operation Sports said, theres a reason this wasnt uploaded to Youtube because this thing would get ripped to shreds just like the Madden videos weve been seeing lmao.

At any rate cant wait for the 2k trailer tomorrow, got something to force me to wake up early in the morn! haha
 
It's not just the graphics is bad, the animation is incredibly basic too.

You can also see sliding before Nash's Layup.

The worst is the closeup of the ball stop spinning after it entered the net:

I feel sorry for the development team behind this, knowing there is another similar game being released along side this that is better in every single way. But I feel more sorry for the poor kid who's mum or dad buys him this game instead of 2K14.
