NBA Live 10: Five Things to Know (ESPN Videogames)

11:34 AM - July 23, 2009 by theanswer34

ESPN Videogames have posted an article on the Five Things to Know about NBA Live 10.

Quote:


	"Chris Paul pops a 3 to give the Hornets the lead and as he pumps his fists in celebration, you hear Ric Flair's trademark "Woo!" blare out over the PA system to help hype the crowd. Play as the Warriors and the Oakland crowd greets sharpshooting Italian Marco Belinelli with chants of "Rocky! Rocky!" Bring the Magic to the playoffs and you'll even see Dwight Howard bust out the "Superman" dance prior to tipoff. These are just some of the enhancements made to the overall atmosphere of EA Sports' basketball series for "NBA Live 10," a franchise that has struggled both in sales and in perception as of late, making EA the underdog in its roundball rivalry with 2K Sports and its award-winning "NBA 2K" series. But don't just think all of "Live's" changes are simply a series of woos, chants and Soulja Boy dance steps as EA also promises some amazing strides forward in terms of game play, introducing new elements like the size-up dribble."

Remember guys, pics are "WIP".

# 10 Jamin23 @ 07/23/09 12:13 PM

Look at the Steve Nash screen. It looks like the playoffs judging by the way the crowd looks.

Good find. Looks good. Finally got to see a D.Wade pic. Wasn't a good angle though.

# 12 Stumbleweed @ 07/23/09 12:16 PM

Great info in that one, even with the producers still not being able to talk about much. The stuff about being in more control, the team-specific playbooks/tempos, full DNA integration into gameplay, and the game-within-the-game elements all has me very excited that they're heading the right direction. The culture stuff is cool too, but I care less about that and more about the game representing real NBA basketball. Sound good though... hope the game delivers this year.

Yea. But I doubt Suns will even make it to the playoffs. Lol.

Note that Sean never mention a single programmer or animator or artist in "dream team". You would think that the designers will this game out of thin air.

# 15 Da_Czar @ 07/23/09 12:22 PM

uhhh.. Dat was NICE !!!!! I will read it again !

# 16 bateman11 @ 07/23/09 12:24 PM

i really like how they are focusing on the 1on1 matcups. thats what the nba is all about.

also, i just dont see how the competition can compete with live's dynamic dna and ratings. that is just going to be off the charts.

also, it really looks like they have focused on the atmosphere. very nice!

# 17 GrnEyedBanditTN @ 07/23/09 12:26 PM

interesting that EA stole away a 2k guy... can we say gameplay????

Hey Steadtler welcome to the OS man. I don't think that was a shot at them or a snub... He pointed to the guys who are setting the direction for the franchise. In any given article you don't want it to break into a 5 page shout out session...lol

"the ability to use the right trigger to power up your ballhandler"

Im interested in how this feature will look during gameplay, at least they said it will have risks for there to be a steal if the ballhandler is holding down the trigger too long.

Hopefully the right trigger power wont be too powerful for the lebron, kobe type players.

Awesome, I can't wait to throw on some Jordan 11's

, they haven't had those since 05.

Hopefully they have my Fav. Jersey too
