    Could it just be the camera angle?

    I don't know about you guys but I play b-ball games with the camera angle that is being shown in the nba 2k7 videos from 2ksports.

    All the videos i've seen of Live '07 has that baseline camera angle. I want to see some gameplay from the pressbox or center court perspective. To me, that could possibly change my opinion of the 2K game looking much better than Live.

    I really hope it's the camera angle that has me so underwhelmed about Live '07.....I was really looking forward to it, but not so much anymore...

    I had the same thought. Live 06 looked and played MUCH better from the side camera's. Games look crap on the top down view.

    So I emailed and requested these cams in IGN's next clips... we'll see...

      I've always thought Live's default angle never looked good. I love the press camera because it allows you to see the entire floor much better and the gameplay seems to improve since you have a higher view of the court.

          I would like to see a true broadcast camera angle, just like on ESPN. Actually, just like the 2k game. This would improve the game 10x for me personally.

            Same here. Lives camera views have sucked for us side angle(broadcast) players since about 03 IMO. In the really early videos of Live 07 I saw a beautiful broadcast view. I hope they incuded it. I cant stand the baseline/topdown view.

              I wouldn't mind cutting to that view for a couple plays (just like a real broadcast on what I believe is ESPN)... like in the 3rd Video on 2ksports.com... that would be really neat, and would add to the challenge and versatility involved for bball gamers.

                Yeah, EA should learn that the baseline camera is terrible. I have no idea why it is there default.

                  It used to be the 2K default angle as well... maybe they're just lagging behind. I agree though, this game should look and play much better on a different angle.

                    I remember that as well, when the ball changed possesion, the game would freeze, and the camera would swing around and it took a long time, disrupted the flow of the game IMO

                      I have HDTV so the Press Camera at 10 Height/5 Zoom was no problem for me. I could see the entire court and all the plays developing much better. It was by far my favorite camera for Live 06 and made game very playable for me.

                      I also thought that the Sideline Camera provided a nice view of the game aswell.

                        live used to have a good broadcast camera, late ps1 and i believe early ps2/xbox. and you would think with the huge espn contract, we'd see not only an ESPN style broadcast complete with broadcast camera angle, but also bill walton commentary, and steve smith and comany post/pre game analysis.

                              yeah.. i think still think the press view in nba live 2001 on pc was the best view nba live has ever had... but the angles in this video totaly make the game better as it seems like you watching a real game from the angle... still doesnt look as nice as nba 2k7, but it still looks nice...
