Yup definitely not a full price purchase for me either...but with whatI just saw I will say this if live takes care of business with franchise mode in the near future and fix some legacy issues...I wont mind paying the 59.99 price for it. Its not quite there yet for me from what i've seen, but I'd be a fool not to recognize the progress being made. That Pro am/initiate play menu clip impressed me I must say...Keep it up Live!!!

Mein that was dope....i got worried after live went silent in august....but what i saw dislocated my jaw.. cant believe how vibrant ProAm was with the atmosphere and lighting....

Still awaiting conformation of the post up game but i guess will just have to find out myself on the 15th of the month...

We go to like 11 or 16 and that's game. I wouldn't mind then having an OPTION of NBA set up or game to 21 that would be cool

I'm surprised nobody here has mentioned this "Game 1" header title. As seen in the above pics, it's mentioned both in-game and in the post game level up screen.

What I get from this is that maybe in the Summer Circuit mode you play "Best Of" series that each goes to 21. Which initially could bring a user that "full game" vibe. Just imagine playing a best of 3 to 21 series in Live Run (OTP) too. If all this that I've came up with here is true then Pro-AM will be addicting!

This is how Summer Circuit works, in each city you play 5 games against different opponents, each team has a different play style and it gets harder as you move up the ladder. You must win to move up the ladder and advance to the Final.

Looks good to me

Those were very impressive clips. 1:30 worth of gameplay and you can already see the massive jump in movement/control, as many of you have stated. It's clearly evident this game has great potential.

That being said, these very short clips of course are going to showcase a couple of baskets. Would you expect the average consumer to enjoy watching a video display a bricked jump shot by Kevin Durant? lol. It could have taken them several tries to get that exact pick coverage by the defense forcing the strong help from the wing. Westbrook clearly had the open lane for a thunderous dunk. Pick your poison.

And in the pro-am clip, the ball handling looks very improved and more responsive. Players look more explosive and not so stuck in quicksand-like. And the dunk at the end was a great end to the video. He sliced through the help side defenders with a simple dunk where he avoided defenders.. No one was forced out of the dunker's path like in previous games.

Those are just my thoughts. I was very impressed by the footage and now believe EA is pretty dang confident in their product which is why the demo releases two weeks before launch. They trust the demo will be enough to warrant purchases.

One possiession EXACT same as Live 15 1000s of times.

I.e. Nothing changed.

Just so I am really clear on this...I played Live 14 and 15 a lot.

In both games, if you ran a pick and roll and went around the pick...the defense always collapsed, no matter who you had free on the perimeter. It meant wide...wide..wide...Open threes all game.

First vid of Live 16....pick, collapse...wide open three for aun unguarded Durant, of all people.

I.e. Seems like the same issue exists.

Yes, one video only...but it shows the exact same problem.
