This game is everything I hate about EA and their bs CG marketing schemes. Graphically, this game is hitrocious meanwhile all the commercials made it look fantastic. Madden, same thing, great commercials and then you play it and it's terrible. Honestly I'm boycotting EA, I'm tired of getting fooled along with the rest of you. I was looking forward to this game so bad and I get a PS2 version of NBA live 10?! If you think this game is good and worth $60 you're a fool. Sorry about the harsh review, but Jesus this game is trash. Graphics 0 out of 10, gameplay 2 out of 10, features 6 out of 10, and 10 out of 10 on crushed hopes.

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
I was hoping this would of been a secondary b-ball game, but this game is awful. I went in with an open mind because I thought some of the live streams weren't bad. It looked and felt like an early ps2 game. I couldn't finish the 1st quarter.Psn: SpriggComment

I'm back and fourth with this one. I'll just say it's not bad but not next gen presentable with a price like that for the retail version but I do know they gotta make that guap to support the DNA and online features.
I'll also say is that the dev team better be working like dogs right at this very moment get 15 ready. I want to see a night and day transition from 14 to 15 sorta like Mobb Deep's 1st to 2nd album mind blower when it comes to gameplay, animations and graphics. 14 is Live 10 all over again and no bueno with how EA tried to pull the wool with this one.Just cuz you pour syrup on ish....Comment

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
Played 3 games.....
Dun Dun Duuuun!
- I like the idea of true right stick dribbling, but the dribbling is not as fluid as they say. I felt freestyle was waaaay better.
- The commentary has some bright dialog but way to much dead air
- The graphics...no comment...next!
- The shot and layup animations seem limited. I saw the same layups for bigs and guards.
- I saw elbow blocks, which has been in Live games forever. Did they build this from the ground up?
Overall, very disappointed. I would have rather EA come out and blow us away with a graphical masterpiece and an unpolished game, then this effort.Work Hard...Pay Bills...Work Hard...Pay BillsComment

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
yeah a lot of melodramatic divas. This game isn't worth full priced, but I don't think ea can do anything about it if its released through physical media. the only way the can alter price is through Digital.
This game is probably 6/10. It has alot of pieces that can make a great puzzle, but so far its still scrambled.
Would I buy it? No. If someone wanted to to get a diff taste of basketball I wouldn't disagree.
It needs alot of work there. Everything in ign despite the score were legitimate gripes#dairyfreeComment

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
WOW I am speechless , ea tried to pull the wool over our eyes! All the dribble vids and still screens made this game look good BUT like always the final version flops. Where do I begin hmmmmm
Graphics - worse looking NEXTGEN game released nuff said
Player movement - robots or motion capture tech ? I'm going with preselected animations instead or human movement like 2k
Presentation - nice , wish I wasn't licensed so that OTHER game could use it
Bball 101 - very basic barebones game that feels more like a beta than a full polished game. Basic principle of ball work somewhat but a lot of the live 10 issues still exist. Also in the paint it seems that if a shot isn't blocked its automatically 2points
Final - this game shouldn't be 59.99 it should be a downloadable only title for 29.99. Ea won't be a major player in the basketball genre for years to come IMO . If their REALLY is a 3 year plan I will wait till then to think about buying#SIMNATION

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
Tried it...found it boring....would've been better if they released this on current gen as well and it's way to overpriced for a so called "next gen" game...
only positive I can give is that the menu looks way better than 2k's Dreamcast looking menu....less convoluted as well.....Comment

Re: NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
I agree with this one 100%. Not horrible but not great. Somewhere in the middle. Ill wait for confirmation when synergy updates come into play. Ill wait till I can get it for maybe 30ish. I can see potential. EA has no excuses come Live 15.
Like someone said, Devs better be working hard on getting Live 15 updated soon.
All in all not bad if 1 dev cycle statement is true. Ill give it a 7/10 overall.Comment
