    NBA LIVE...as a sim?

    I have now played almost half of my first season in dynasty with Orlando. I play every game, absolutely no simming whatsoever. Anyway I noticed something almost shocking last night.

    When you go into player stats, you can look at their stats from last year as well with a touch of a button. Obviously last years stats are 'real'. Well what I did was look at my players stats this year and compared them to their 'real' stats from last year. What I found amazed me.

    The top 8 guys in minutes played, that actually played last year shooting % were all within a few 100's of a percentage point of their 'real' stats. For example. Steve Francis last year I believe shot .402 In my season he's shooting .403 after about 40 games. Mobley, Tukoglu, Bogans, all the same. PPG were very close, Rebounds, I was amazed. The ONLY thing that was off was FT % But I have that at 100 and I can't make it any harder.

    I am just really impressed at what they did with Live this year. The results you get are so believeable, yet they don't feel fake or scripted.

    That's nice. Is this without any player editing (since some ratings ARE a bit off)?

    Man, I can't wait to have this for the PC!

            This is great.

            Can't wait until it's released here.

            Now just gotta decide whether to get the XBOX version or wait another month for the PC version

                    You mean you can't buy Live? ESPN was only $20, and Live is $40 this year. Buy both and you'll only be spending $10 more than you usually will..
