NBA Live 10 Blog: Live is Back!

[marcoyk]

Wow you guys are really confident about this game. I hope it lives up to your hype. I was impressed by the player gear detail that Live had compared 2K9. A lot of players in 2K9 had wrong gear on and it was annoying to have to change it every time a new roster came out. I really, really hope Live is as good as you're making it sound.

"Matt Lafreniere will be walking you through what was done with the in game presentation. From everything to the individual game atmosphere based on when and where the game is being played and who’s playing in it to the new broadcast graphics package and presentation. We’ve seen the two Czarisodes (http://www.operationsports.co/videoview.php?id=390 and http://www.operationsports.com/newspost.php?id=325692) that were posted on OS. This is another area where we knew we were really falling short in 09. NBA LIVE 10 has taken a huge leap forward in this area and I think the Czar’s scores will look much different when he does his NBA LIVE 10 vs NBA2K10 Czarisodes next year."

"brand new way of playing OTP"

*squeal*

Seriously though, this is by far the most addictive and rewarding mode in sports games if done properly. That hasn't been done yet... I'm hopeful that the emphasis on OTP will pay off with Live, because I'm sure that would suck up 75% of my time in next year's crop of b-ball games.. so hooked on OTP.

I feel you 100%, there's sooo much potential in online team play compared to other sports (besides maybe hockey) because you're constantly switching back from offense to defense and having to react so quickly. If somebody could just get this right, I would seriously play Bball year round.

It can't just be 2 crews, what about Sony's team?

........ok, now that was just uncalled for.

I've always imagined the SONY NBA team are somewhere in a dark room playing NBA Courtside and NBA Live 97 and the lead producer is saying "this is what we need to beat".

Re: Inside Blog This Week.. you'll "witness" something cool.

If you guys look really closely at the image, you can find 4 things that are completely different this year.....

I hope you guys did a number on the arenas this year. Each arena in 09 felt like you were in the same exact place. The lighting and over all realism of each arena needs to feel individual for each team.

That is so true. The only thing that differentiated each arena from each other was the floor.

This looks like a hint: "From everything to the individual game atmosphere based on when and where the game is being played and who’s playing in it"

Also could it mean Dynamic attendance, I don't think the grizzlies are gonna have a full house Lol

Ok, with what NCAA 10 is shaping up to be... ANYTHING you do will be better than what NCAA has done this year. ANYTHING.

Hreat blog so far to start. One thing I will be most interested in is the AI and gameplay. If they are able to nail that, I think they will have a true challenger to 2K. I think the direction of details and other "little things" will go a long way as far as immersion goes.

Re: NBA Live 10 Blog: Live is Back!

Nice! I'm hoping there are a couple more than that. I assumed you guys would add more after I saw Sheed's last year. Is that a cut-scene or real-time? I understand if you can't say.

I will reserve judgment until I see gameplay but this year will be very interesting. I have not played Live continuously since my friend dropped 107 on me with Dirk in Live 05 (I literally turned the game off and sold it that very day), didn't play 06, 07, 08, and play 09 every once in a while at my friends house, but things are looking very, very interesting.
