They should have taken last year off and built the game from the ground up. They have improved visuals, but from the broadcast cam the player models and animations still remind me of Live 10.

I was really starting to buy in, but seeing these videos just showed me that the core engine is just not appropriate for this generation. I know people on this board don't like to discuss this, but there is no comparison in fluidity of the animation compared to 2k. Live will never get to that point with this current engine.

Before you say Live needs to focus on being their own game and not compete with 2k, I agree to a point but a basketball game is nothing without gameplay. The gameplay will never be right without proper animations.

I didn't writer this to bash EA or the Live developers. I know their not trying to make a bad game on purpose. I have really been rooting for Live, but seeing the small sample of gameplay showed me everything I needed to see.
