    Separating the shoot and dunk buttons is a genius move that will (and should) be ripped off by every basketball game designer next season. Too bad you can't hit jump shots.

    ESPN-9.0 Gameplay
    The open floor will lead to more and better fast break opportunities, while IsoMotion adds a new level of strategy to beating opponents off the ball.

    now STFU because ESPN has higher scores in everything except sound. I mean if they called up Cash Money, Lil Jon, Jay Z ,&amp; D-Block maybe they would have scored higher than Live in sound.

                  WTF. I'm glad there's no pro hop button cuz it's an abusive feature and besides ESPN already has a hop-step so who gives a sh_t. As for separate shot buttons, there's no point. If your deep in the paint you layup/dunk anyway in ESPN, no jumpshot 2 feet away from the rim anymore. It's just a waste of a button that could have a different command. Sound only bad in announcer area and I applaud Live cuz Marv is one of the best. He'd be better announcing in ESPN though.

                        When it comes to gameplay, though, there are a few things that were featured in NBA Live 2004 that could've made ESPN's gameplay run even smoother. The first is the separation of the shoot and dunk buttons. Playing Live and then moving on to ESPN, you really miss calling your own shots, or dunks if you will, as anytime you are given more control, that is a good thing. The second gameplay addition only featured in Live is the use of the pro hop button. In ESPN, there are pro hops, but as we mentioned, these are more of contextual animations rather than anything you are controlling. The pro hop button in Live helps ball handlers split defenders and create separation on the way to the hoop, and combined with IsoMotion, could've been a deadly gameplay weapon. Oh well, there's always next year.

                        In terms of other gameplay features, ESPN features the ability to adjust your lineups before the game, scramble starters, and even participate in a fantasy ESPN-style draft, just like you've seen in other games like ESPN NFL Football and ESPN NHL Hockey. The game is online for both systems, although the PS2 online experience is by far the better of the two as it features leagues similar once again to ESPN NFL Football. In addition, Franchise mode has also been improved by enabling you to hire scouts, assistant coached and trainers to help your squad, and this year the computer teams will even offer you trades. It's about time. We just wish they would've included in-game highlights of other games going on during your season like they did in ESPN NFL Football.

                        But even without that, the game is so deep that even if playing in as your favorite NBA team was all there was to the game,...ESPN NBA Basketball would still be worth buying, as it's the best 5-on-5 NBA experience money can buy. But that's where the folks at Visual Concepts kept running, and in doing so, beat all of their competitors down the court for the slam dunk.

                            When it comes to gameplay, though, there are a few things that were featured in NBA Live 2004 that could've made ESPN's gameplay run even smoother. The first is the separation of the shoot and dunk buttons. Playing Live and then moving on to ESPN, you really miss calling your own shots, or dunks if you will, as anytime you are given more control, that is a good thing. The second gameplay addition only featured in Live is the use of the pro hop button. In ESPN, there are pro hops, but as we mentioned, these are more of contextual animations rather than anything you are controlling. The pro hop button in Live helps ball handlers split defenders and create separation on the way to the hoop, and combined with IsoMotion, could've been a deadly gameplay weapon. Oh well, there's always next year.

                            In terms of other gameplay features, ESPN features the ability to adjust your lineups before the game, scramble starters, and even participate in a fantasy ESPN-style draft, just like you've seen in other games like ESPN NFL Football and ESPN NHL Hockey. The game is online for both systems, although the PS2 online experience is by far the better of the two as it features leagues similar once again to ESPN NFL Football. In addition, Franchise mode has also been improved by enabling you to hire scouts, assistant coached and trainers to help your squad, and this year the computer teams will even offer you trades. It's about time. We just wish they would've included in-game highlights of other games going on during your season like they did in ESPN NFL Football.

                            But even without that, the game is so deep that even if playing in as your favorite NBA team was all there was to the game,...ESPN NBA Basketball would still be worth buying, as it's the best 5-on-5 NBA experience money can buy. But that's where the folks at Visual Concepts kept running, and in doing so, beat all of their competitors down the court for the slam dunk.

                            Well the thing is that if you're gonna mention the 2 things the author mentioned that you feel were better in Live...you should have noted the other part where the author goes on to say how OVERALL espn's gameplay is the best and also includes the other options available. Thats all I was saying, man. I understand where you're coming from. People are always saying how much better espn is I can see how NBA Live fans are fed up with that. Thats why you pulled that quote out of the review in hopes of somewhat extinguishing all the "ESPN's GAMPLAY RULES!" remarks...but you left out the part where the author basically said the same thing....espn's gameplay is tops. Thats why I posted it.

                              WTF. I'm glad there's no pro hop button cuz it's an abusive feature and besides ESPN already has a hop-step so who gives a sh_t. As for separate shot buttons, there's no point. If your deep in the paint you layup/dunk anyway in ESPN, no jumpshot 2 feet away from the rim anymore. It's just a waste of a button that could have a different command. Sound only bad in announcer area and I applaud Live cuz Marv is one of the best. He'd be better announcing in ESPN though.

                              damn you sound like a little *****...

                              you wouldn't have a button for shoot and dunk.lay-up?

                              this gives you more control on what you wanna do and WHERE you are at.

                              more control is always better...
