Positives:

Crowd is one hundred times better looking. They also react better, definitely louder.

Court looks awesome.

Player packages stand out even more.. Manu has his all out flail to the basket, Parker floats everything, James leans back on his shot.

Big men get attempt to put it right back up if they get the offensive rebound in the paint.

Negatives:

No plays

Faces look like an early build [hopefully] especially Timmy, he looks like garbage.

Playing as Tony Parker, I felt slow

Definitely not a dunk fest so far. Foot planting is good.

Its definitely got Live beat already no contest.

Anyone notice if there are any tip steals like how MJ would always steal it in the lanes? Would come running out of nowhere and just tap the ball towards the other basket and then he would catch up with it on the break

Hopefully Live gets enough people to get that 1000 players online achievement for you this year.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm playing on a 42' HDTV and the Jaggies looked pretty bad to me. It wasn't just jaggie un-smooth edges, but I could actually see white edges around players black hair/heads. Thats just off putting. Why don't they turn on some AA.
