I think people can be a bit harsh on LIVE. I just popped 2K in for a quick game and Pat Bonner was doing crossovers and Tim Duncan pump faking near the 3 point line. It is a great game, but people tend to just ignore it when a 2K game does that stuff.


I personally am finding 2K hard to play due to the rebounding issues, but also due to the fact I am playing FIFA 15 a lot. After you experience the physics in that game, it is hard to play an 'animations' based game as they don't feel organic at all / feel likes I am going through a set of pre set animations. So, even though LIVE is not even close to FIFA's level, its had a big impact on my upcoming purchase.


I really hope the LIVE team can reach 'FIFA level' one day as it is clearly light years ahead of anything we have for basketball at the moment in terms of physics and being organic.
The physics aspect is what keeps me coming back. I was going to post something regarding physics. I've been trying to go back to Ncaa football 14. It has the infinity engine., which is a early physics engine. Needless to say I can't really enjoy it, after playing Madden 15 for the last few months. I'm very big on the physics movement, and I truly believe all sports games should be physics based. I think Live is a solid game and I just can't play sports games that don't have physics. I see a lot of guys here trying to justify their purchase of Live. You don't have to guys. It's your money, do what you like. Screw what other people think!!
