there's still nothing wrong with pointing them out, in case the devs missed one or two.

I don't think Live needs to be slowed down at all. I love Live's speed and that is one thing it does really well - you can get some explosiveness out of the movements (you really feel the quickness off the dribble from guys like D. Wade). 2k has a slower game, which results in a slugglish, unresponsive experience - 2k's movements lack urgency or explosiveness.

That's not really what I meant. I think Live does very well in giving you the sense of being able to blow by your defender and having guys feel more athletic. There are just certain animations that don't appear to have a transition point, they sort of snap from one to the other, it's one of the main reasons why it can look robotic at times.

Is that what those dunks are called..."Rocket Dunks". LOL. I described them as magnetic dunks. Like the rim and the ball are magnets and when they are near each other they stick together quick and fast. Anyway...those are the type of plays that make my eyes get big and say "Wow". But not in a good way.

Lives animations are really a turn off. It's just TOO many unrealistic moments/movements in their games. I trip out cuz we are almost 6 years into the next gen consoles to have so many last gen ps2/xbox animations and movements. Hopefully live 11 will look and feel closer to real basketball. I think they will get it right eventually.

If you have an issue with the dunks being fast or whatever the devs said they have a fix in the patch, so can we move on from that?

We're not even 4 years in yet for 360, 3 for PS3. I don't know how you got 6.
