EA Please Stop Making NBA Live

[PS5 Pro]

Not really. It's the equivalent of having Walmart's next closest competitor being the Piggly Wiggly. But then again the NBA 2k series were improving when EA wasn't making games so they never really got complacent.

Unlike a certain EA football game.

Nah, once Live stopped. 2K didn't improve. It had the improvements that come with next gen aka it looked better
The players had their real shots/etc. That was enough for us to go
But after 2k11, all they have done is fukk around with the controls while slowly stripping the game of features while watching the online modes suffer worse each year. The game is going in a downward spiral that is only tolerated because the NBA is faaaaantastic I didn't even buy 2K12 or 14. I'll probably skip 2k16 as well

I don't see why another company doesn't take a stab at this there use to be multiple titles with the nba license in the 90s and early 2000s

at ppl defending Live, like EA has made a good Live game in the past 10 years. shyt on 2k all you want, but I've never seen a straight up trash 2k game

I just booted up the trial version of live 15 and I'm getting an update:

Head scans of Melo, Rose, Noah, and Leonard.
Updated Spurs Jerseys, update homecourts of Cavs, hornets and pelicans.

Who would've thought EA did this kind of stuff

I always wonder why they stopped making NBA In The Zone, that shyt was raw.

I gotta keep it real with you guys, IGN knows NOTHING about sports games.
Its like asking a PC centric gamer to review a sports title.. like, why do that

You have to ask a real basketball head if this game is any good. I've heard plenty of good things from people who have played it
Then the online majority who havent but look for every reason to shyt on it
Me? EA Access will feed a nikka, so I'll let you know whats good in 6-8mnths

Didn't you say live would be better than 2k?
Lol

 

[Cladyclad]

for anyone saying this game is good is crazy. I REPEAT U CANT RUN OUT OF BOUNDS U CANT RUN OUT OF BOUNDS!!

run all the way to the baseline. then let da force field take u to the rim. eas bucket almost everytime

So you buy on the odd years.

I played Lives demo. They have a ways to go but it's not a 5.5 title.
I don't give a damn about IGNs scores though.
They absolutely dumped on 'Alien: Isolation' and it's one of the best games I've played in years.
Second to only TLOU on the PS4 for me.
Live is a couple years away from warranting a $60 purchase, but they're making improvements.
Game play needs to be slowed down considerably, though.

EA needs to step their game up not give up.

2k needs that competition because they have been getting lazy.

This is the one time I wish I had waited for the reviews to come out.

True 2k does need competition but EA is obviously not it and hasn't been for quite some time, another development company needs to enter the competition.

So you have the game?????
