2K9 looked much better IMO even then.

I said that because, what was it like Sony's 3rd game of the series. That was really good compared to a series that had been out for nearly 10 years.

Best solution is to bring back NBA Street! What was that EA division called? EA Big wasn't it? man I had a blast playing NBA and NFL street years ago...

Wow, just by watching this you can tell that the animations on 2k are about 78 times better. I really miss the glory days of live but, 2k is great and I'm really looking forward to October 2nd.

Its over for them. At least for another 2 or 3 years if they keep going at this rate. But one thing can be said about EA. If they took 3 years and still no launch , they must be adding ALOT of detail to the game to whatever part they're working on. If they spend "100 hours" on every single part of the game (most importantly gameplay) then in my opinion they can rival 2k. But whats the chances of that? It would take another three years. IMO 2k and live should just join forces. We're used to only getting one game a year now anyways. Can you imagine a game with 2k's gameplay, 2k's animations, 2k's game modes, Lives accessories, Lives and 2ks shoes, Lives presentation, AND Lives presentaion!?!??!?!?

This has got to be the biggest video game debacle since the Mass Effect 3 Ending Incident. It might be bigger than that.

There is no excuse why this game isn't up to par with games in other genres, let alone its competition in 2K Sports. They had 2-3 years to make this game playable, and only spent ONE YEAR developing the game. And, they have the balls to say "it was challenging" as an excuse???

If I'm the head at EA Games, I'm nuking that entire basketball department for good. Usually I don't think that drastically, but there is no excuse for this. EA has successfully ran a profitable series into the ground, first by overreacting to poor sales, second by being damn lazy and cheap. EA makes billions every single year. You telling me they can't put together a decent basketball game?

EA, you had me at Madden 13, and lost me again at this. I have no faith in you anymore...

I think it was the successor of NBA Shootout. I don't know if it had anything to do with 989 Sports, but if it did, they had been around for more than a decade at that time.

100 plus hours, you mean a 100 plus 100 days

There is no fluidity to the animations. This game looks like absolute crap. Surprised EA even released this trailer with the possibility of the game not even being released..

The faces look great and the way the expressions are animated reminds me of LA Noir but the body types sucks. Some heads are just to big for the body ...

I love the shot block by Howard! See that 2k! How about some vids showing blocks like that instead of ankle breakers!

how about EA show us some gameplay period, anybody can take a couple of highlights and make a trailer appealing, but this trailer wasnt the case, EA trying hard to hide the jerky, lag issue, but its still apparent in the trailer, animations still stiff, looks just like the video that was leaked a month back, pre-alpha my a**!!!!!!!!!! They still afraid to release gameplay footage cause we all know its still going to look and play like the leaked that was revealed!

I cant stop laughing , this game is a joke. NBA 2K wont have "REAL" competition for a long time.

It really dont matter if the graphics are half decent, when the mechanics are so far off its not even funny. Look at how they run up court,shoot, lay the ball up, dunk the ball, pass, block shot. (I could go on)

This is seriously a game for kids in their early childhood to enjoy, because if you actually watch/play basketball this isn't playable for casual or definitely sim players.

I actually feel sad for you guys out there that are actually Live fans and not trolls.

A 2K gameplay with Live's presentation Basketball simulation would be the best basketball game ever made.

Think about it this way: A trailer for vidoe games, is like tons of makeup for ugly ladies. If even that doesn't make her look good, you better run...

As far as I know, it wasn't.
