    Re: NBA Live 10 Blog: Shooting the Rock

    I think im going to have to take Lives animations for what theyre worth.....im just not a fan I guess...some of them just not look smooth to me at all...

    other then that, I love the atmosphere in the building....probably the best ive seen in a game....and that sequence w\ Bargani grabbing his eye is just awesome...

      If you a true nba live fan you will see where its coming from.. I kinda see live 10 like nba live 05 in a way but a million times better. Its fluid and not over animated or overdone. This is they year!!!

        Lol 24th that's exactly how my cousin feels. He for some reason just doesn't like the way live animates and I dont know why either.

        Maybe its just the speed of the game everything is so fast, where as in 2K things are more deliberate. You get to see more of the intricacies in the players movements then you can in Live.

        And that's one of the reasons why I dislike the way 2K animates because though it does look nicer sometimes it gets in the way.

        Like if I'm going for a layup the animation is nice as hell, but its annoying when that beauty is spoiled by Dwight throwing my ish out the gym.

        At that point I'm like damn why didn't he just get the shot up quicker.

        Hopefully this isn't considered a 2K vs Live post lol.

          Add Synergy, playbooks, improvements across the board. Live is looking like it has the total package. It has more life to it than other basketball game too. The spacing and team AI seem a notch above the rest.

          Nice


          The bold part is why I pre-ordered it. We all know basketball games get boring and repetitive fast because theres not enough variety to keep us coming back. We exhaust all the moves, all the commentary, all the gimmicks and cheese moves and every game becomes the SAME in presentation and gameplay.

          But with Live 10 it seems like we will never have one game that will look the same and we have NEVER had that in an NBA game.

          There's no real choice from what I've seen so far. And I'm happy it's almost here.

          One of the reasons I tried breaking my blu-ray disc in half. The canned animations where the guy takes 5 years to put up a lay up 1 foot from the hoop.

              yeah, I hear you...to me, some of the animations just dont look natural...kind of jerky to me...Everyones view on it is different I guess. Me, I prefer something that looks and has the smoothness of a true to life basketball move....and some of the motions dont reflect that to me...

              I want to be able to say "Man, that totally looks like something that D Wade would do...." when im playing w\ D Wade. He may be quicker, better handles, maybe even shoot like D Wade....but I want to see him finish at the basket\ make moves different from everyone else... that makes a big difference to me...

                You should view the history of nba live and that will give you a rundown on nba live 10...From everything ive seen nba live looks amazeing and even in vids it looks like a fresh nba live thats never been seen before. The idea of this year was to bring it back to the way it use to be and that has been done.

                  Yeah I feel you on that and I honestly feel like Live 10 is going to deliver on that front. I liked the player differentiation I saw in the shooting tutorial.

                  I think your problem is harder to overcome though because that's just the way the game animates and its something I don't see changing.

                  Maybe once you get your hands on the game you'll be able to look past it. I feel like for most of the guys here if it plays a good game of ball people will play it.

                  And I think that's all that matters in the end anyway, because videogames are meant to be played not watched.

                    Yea man you couldnt say it any better br0..Good looking on that..Thats why i say die hard live fans will be amazed at what live 10 is doing this year overall and i use to play the crap out of nba live 05 day in and day out and when i seen nba live 10 in videos i was like ohhhhhhhhh snapp. Nba live 10 doesnt need 100000 animations to make it look smooth and thats what people are use to you know. Its all about fundamental basketball and the controls,macanics,everything about live 10 brings it..I cant wait untill thursday

                      You're not alone 24th, I'm with you. Although Live has really good animations, but to me it's still herky jerky. Jano was right, 2k is deliberate and much slower so you can see how the animations branches out. Live's animation I think is too quick on branching their animations that's why people see it as herky jerky.

                      Not dissing live at all here people, I'm getting both games just not sure how! hahahaa! Man, I've watched that 5-on-5 gameplay video for the 54th time now! The atmosphere is just plain sick!

                          I think that Live has the speed and the efficiency of NBA players down pat.

                          Where as 2K really nails it when it comes to having every player move and respond like they would in real life.

                          I hope yall understand what I'm saying here.

                          So some like one style over the other but, luckily it looks this year you won't go wrong once you settle on which game you like better.

                              - That's the thing, if 2k basketball didn't exist, I won't be saying Live has herky jerky animations. It's just 2k got it right at least IMO.

                              - Well said my friend. 2k is very authentic. 2k Captures NBA player movements right.
