To me, it's almost like someone else said a couple pages back, you have to knock out the champion, and while close, I think Live 11 might be the one to ultimately do that next year.

I feel they're both almost on an equal level this time, and it comes down to what you prefer. For anyone (like me) who's played every 2K since Dreamcast, you can definitely start to feel the age. I wouldn't call it 2k9.5, but I also don't believe anyone who played 2K9 will be blown away by it. It's still solid, just not anything you would consider a huge leap.

On the other hand, Live is such a step up from where it's been lately that it's easy to get excited over the prospect of it just being playable without loads of aggravation. That being said, I still feel their are certain things that hamper it just slightly. I know one thing, 2K better pull out all the stops for next season, or we will have a new champion, I can almost guarantee that
