How Bad Are The Graphics?

[jjoe]

Is the presentation tight? Are there intros? How bad are the graphics considering ESPN?

Re: How Bad Are The Graphics?

ESPN clearly has better player faces and presentation (intros and stuff). Live's player models and animations and stuff are fine, but the faces and presentation are where ESPN has them beat. But, I think the Live gameplay is great this year. It depends on what you want, I haven't played this year's ESPN but I own the last one and I can't see how the gameplay could be even close to Live. It all depends on what you want.

put it like this if u swing the ball around the perimeter and you are looking for a clear shot trying to beat the zone u might wind up shooting with a center cause at first glance he might look like ur 2 point shooter
it got so bad that i had to give my shooter extra headbands and knee bands with different colors so i can idnetify them

Re: How Bad Are The Graphics?

if you know the nba, the graphics are fine. If you know who is on your team, they are recognizable from most of the cameras(you can also have the names under their feet if you want). I turn off all of the identifiers and I only have problems with Darius Miles and Ricky Davis. #21 and 31 look pretty similar and both wear headbands. I actually use their shoes to tell them apart sometimes.

Anyway, I think the graphics are fine. Not up to par with ESPN, but from the view of gameplay, it seems like it doesn't matter. ESPN looks really good up close, but from gameplay cameras, it's not that much better.

ESPN still looks a generation ahead of Live, even with the default cameras.
