Go-To Moves video

Re: Go-To Moves video

Thats the thing, they've added dunks, jumpers, floaters, mannerisms and this right here is looked upon like its manna from the sky...lol

go to moves... more like a bunch of fadeaways and that's it. That's all?

Then you guys say hopefully 2k can follow suit? LOL man is this a joke?

Who has all of the sig moves, jumpers differentiates players from one another?

Am I missing something because it seems to me that people always open wide and choke on EA's marketing fluff every year.

This is just a crazy comment man. Wow....

Sadly, I have to agree with you.

It's almost as if people convince themselves that this is "good." When you have another game pushing the envelope, how is this good??

Are you just happy that you have a sampling of what 2k is offering in terms of signature style?

This is a JOKE. J-O-K-E. Don't give me this garbage about subtleties and what not. All it takes is a player lifting their leg on a fadeaway and all of a sudden "EA is on point yo!"

I mean... seriously, it's as if people are looking for a reason to give them credit on these half-*** attempts at "features" in a game. Just like they included the FIBA teams... that play with NBA rules on NBA courts. Whoopie.

C'mon fellas, screw NBA Live come and join the cool kids at the 2K forums. Who cares that the go to moves are actually pretty cool. NBA 2k is the best selling basketball game EVER! I like it, so should you.

Ok coco, it was cute the first time but now it's getting old. Don't you want Live to actually be the top tier basketball game it should be?? This sort of **** is something I'd expect from NBA 08 by Sony, not EA ******' Sports man.... this isn't some two bit developer who can't BRING IT. These Go-to Moves look like they were thrown in just to throw them in. Add another bullet on that feature list homey!

Someone else mentioned it and they made a point. It's no wonder we kept seeing Tony Parker's runner, Dirks Fadeaway, Gilbert's step back and Kobe's turnaround over and over and over... the rest of them look almost exactly the same....

Subtleties my ***. Oh wow, Kobe's leg kicks 10 degrees lower than Dirk's... WOW! That's real **** right there....

Give me a break.

OK, but what if I like it? Does that make you better than me? Dang..I like the game, I thought the go to moves video was cool, I thought the demo was solid and fun for me, man..you guys make people feel stupid for liking something the majority doesn't like. Must be nice being on such a high pedestal judging and looking down on people who have a different opinion than yours. If you like NBA Live then this forum is not for you. The NBA live forum is also the 2K forum, it's where 2Kers come to b**tch about NBA Live and hate on people that actually might find some enjoyment from the game.
I love how these 2Kers come to any thread and start preaching about this and that and all of a sudden it becomes a hate NBA Live thread..gotta love it man. It's not enough that there is a 2K section dedicated to it's fans but there is an NBA Live section for 2K fans to s**t on.

OK I get it, you think the game sucks, but isn't it a little obvious there are some fans on this board of both games or just NBA Live?

I enjoy the game, what the F**K you gonna do about it?

I like the game, what are you going to do car jack me after I leave Gamestop with my copy of NBA Live?

I see little differences in each go to move, you may not, but I do. NBA Live 08 is nowhere close to NBA 08.

Live obviously has a following, why s**t on everything, just because you may not like it. But sadly that is the state of Operation Sports these days.

The only envelope being pushed by 2k is how far they can push the same ported game into next gen...I wouldn't dare call what they are doing as pushing the envelope...Its more like re-sending the same envelopel with a new stamp over the old one.

Re: Go-To Moves video

The victim act is old now. You love it, hey, kudos to you. Knock yourself out. Hey, throw a party!

That doesn't mean anyone here can't post about what they see in the game because they want it to advance the genre.

Basketball video games as a whole should be improving.... and when you have a title that is "just catching up" it's not only disappointing but INSULTING. I'm insulted they released Live '07. I'm insulted they hyped this feature when there are only "subtle" differences. No, you didn't back slap my kid or call me fat, but until you bring the title EA SPORTS is capable of bringing I'll be there with my cash in hand. Until then I'm not buying into leg kick subtleties as a true representation of the NBA in video game form.

FWIW, No one insulted you coco, no one preached and no one and no one is judging you. You like the game, great. But quit acting like anyone is attacking your character when no one has any idea who you are besides 'cocobee' on OS. We're discussing the game and when I asked you if you were willing to settle all you had to do was respond back with a resounding "YES!" That's it; Nothing more.

You have your opinion and I have mine. Personally it makes me sick that Live was arguably the best game out at one point and now you have to settle for half-***ed implementations of things that should've been in the game years ago.

SMC, I know you're reading this man... get this back to the dev. team. This isn't going to cut it if you want to be top dog. Plenty of potential customers out there....

You still on this, man? You were the one that said a game truly can't have next gen physics by being "ported." Go ahead and just come right out and say it: NBA Live has next gen physics. I would like to see you genuinely post that with a straight face as all you seem to be able to do is knock 2k (quite poorly, I must say) when I'm talking about LIVE. NBA LIVE. I want to see the game advance, yet people feel the need to continue to talk about the competition.

There ya go coco, here's a perfect example. Trying to talk about Live and this guy points the finger in the other direction. If the shoe fits... I don't even know why I bother with the guy. It's like trying to discuss math with someone who swears 1+1=11....

Its inconceivable for some to think that 2k does not excite a b-ball videogame consumer...While I recognize 2k as a decent game...It doesn't excite me...I've seen the same game since 2001...Just add a few signature things, tone down the dunk-a-thon and clean up the graphics incrementally year after year and its the SAME game...yawn. and the SAME game is cool if you really enjoy 2k.

I personally think I will prefer LIVE this year...I prefer it of the 2 demos and I would much rather see a developer actually attempt to take the game in another direction for next gen consoles as opposed to resting on the old laurels.

That being said I'm not gonna accept the sim/arcade comparisons of both games because thats about the dumbest thing thats been said yet in these discussions. The complaints about dunks or this or that...well, guess what every game ever made on the face of this planet has had something that we have not and will not like. LIVE will compete this year and it will be just as much fun or more fun than 2k for those who like the game and enjoy the series.

That all being said...let the haters continue to hate because as was noted in this or some other thread in this forum the LIVE trolling is at an all time high...I'm not sure why people who have no intention on buying a game even comment about the fact that they have no intention to buy the game...weird.

dude, quit being so defensive man.. nobody is attacking you.

all we ever said is you guys except these "signature go to fadeaways" as a feature. and thats bogus. EA hyped this feature up as go to moves.. MOVES. then thsy showed kobes fadeaway dirks fadeaway and dwades step back.

Next thing you know a video that NEVER woulda came out and 85% of the people who buy Live will never see, shows the TRUTH as to what these "go-to moves" are.. fadeaways... Thats bunk.

then on top of this you have people in here talking about how they are community leaders and that they speak for us,and are here for us, when what WERE saying isnt even being adressed,Why?... because people liek you keep trying to candy coat their fugazi features

When the competition has signature styles across the board.. from jumpers, dribble styles, floaters, post moves, dunks, etc etc.. real MOVES. The only people who even brought up 2k are the EA defenders, so its not like people are coming in here saying "Live sucks, 2k has this"

You can accept the garbage thats being fed to you or you can continue to point the finger at the competition, thats your perogative.. but dont try to make the people who are being REASONABLE and want BOTH GAMES, to be GREAT accept the same garbage.


And stop acting like we are attacking you. nobodys attacking anyone

I think comparison's are fair because both products compete but i gets alil old seeing the same trolling cats who have no intention on buying the game anyway filter over here and just get their hate on because they feel everything about 2k makes them a SUPERIOR gamer or a gamer with more intelligence...weird
