    If Live has 30 team control it'll bring some serious attention.

    Can wait to see the acutal 5on5 gameplay tomorrow.

      if live can provide a solid off-court experience and develop engaging and quality modes that can be played through without the thought of "needing to spend real $$$ to get by in this mode" entering my head, then i will get it. honestly, all it really needs to do is provide a fully fleshed out association, and solid customization and create-a-player so incoming players for future drafts dont look the same/related, and i'll be more than satisfied.

      live gameplay isn't going to beat 2k, but it doesnt have to. there are many movies out there NOT trying to winning an academy award that are still enjoyable. just the fact that it is going to be the only alternative option to 2k is enough for me to get it (no disrespect to 2k, i think 2k14 has the best gameplay ever for a basketball game, but off-court experience is kinda stale and hasnt changed in years).

        I see people say that Live can't compete with 2k's gameplay but I am calling B.S. I plan on buying live principally because 2k's online gameplay is straight garbage as always and I am an online only gamer that is a basketball junkie. I want to play a game of basketball, not cheese and I am begging for anything other then what 2k has to offer.

          Year 1? no. they will get crushed. thats a given. At this point they are competing for the loyalty of the gamers , not 2k. Down the line and throughout the generation? of course they can compete

            Uh... That is incorrect. The talks were started by EA. But, yes, be mad at the NFL because they are part of this too. They keep re-upping. And it would seem that it was a bidding war that only EA was going to win.

              How about I be mad at the NFL for making the rights exclusive and be mad at Madden for putting out a mediocre product every year since? Does that work?

                Re: Will you buy Live and why?

                i just watched shakedowns video this morn on the features in 2k and its way ahead of the buy list now. i like the sound of that park mode. the additions to career should make that mode more enjoyable too. so right now my money is leaning towards 2k.
                i need to see more from EA. i am not buying both game either one or the other. i may rent the other but i think its pointless to have 2 basketball games for the same league. ea better get some footage of gameplay out on these streets.

                  Nah, you can be mad at EA for both.

                    Thanks for the input guys.

                    So are buying Live or not? Let's not derail the thread. Or did you just chime just because you don't like EA?

                      I won't buy the game but I do plan on getting it from Gamefly. From what I've seen I don't think the game will be worth $60 this year but I do want to play it. I think it will be a solid game overall though. Looking forward to the EASBL or whatever it will be called. Hopefully Live sticks around and down the road will give 2K a run for their money this generation!

                        Based on history and what we've seen to this point, in my opinion, the answer should be obvious. However, for me, personally, I haven't seen enough. I may get the game just for a change of pace. As a matter of fact, it's likely at this point. But if things stay as they are, no.

                          That's understandable and I thought that way as well. With that said, after playing Live 10 for years and thought how fun the game was. It was great change of pace from the other game. Plus 10's online play was solid. So I'm in.

                            If you're a regular fan of a game, if the next iteration has enough of an upgrade for you, of course you should be in. For many people, though, the Live has been absent. So, the "regular" fan of the series is hard to find. You are the man.

                              The few hundred that come on the site will feel the same, but the casual fan that just wants to play ball will had a choice.

                              And in my opinion having that "choice" is what sports video games has been missing.

                                And we know which gaming company is responsible for that, don't we.
