    Choosing a basketball game in 2010

    Last year I really enjoyed live but ended up going back to 2k9 because it was just that much more of a "basketball" game. 2k does the little things right even though Live as far as it's graphics and organic style of play was somewhat immersive as far as spacing and just the tech that was in the game was really immersive. This year is going to be that much more difficult. From the vids I've seen 2k is still standing by the tried and true as far as their engine is concerned. I haven't seen a whole lot to make me think otherwise. But I'm sure they will be stepping up the plate in other regards, where Live is still trying to play catchup, IE realistic tendencies, switching, just little AI things that make all the difference. Live looks really organic and impressive this year though from a graphical standpoint, and they've raised the bar gameplay wise as well. It appears they've cleaned up a lot of issues from last year, but I still have a hard time believing it will be as advanced a game as 2k is. I also don't want EA to rule the world y here so I'm probably going to lean 2k, but the decision is going to be very difficult this year. 2k10 looks to be a basketball sim fans dream although it might leave a bit to be desired in the tech department. Live looks to be something new but still might leave a bit to be desired in the little things.

    I really don't like playing 2 basketball games. I don't have that kind of time plus it's just too much. I'm sure both games will have a lot to offer this year. I just am not sure which one I will choose.

      Really. I hope we don't have many of these threads. It's your own personal buying decision, so assess what is important to you. However, I would like to remind you that demos don't come out for another month. By then, we will be so flooded with information that your decision could actually be grounded in reality, not all of the crap that the developers throw out there two months before release.
