Its your pick Black Bruce Wayne do you want a fully featured current NBA game with supar gameplay, poor animation quality with replay value or do you want a Kobe career mode that will revolutionize NBA games in the level of detail, gameplay and animation quality without the replay value. The NBA live devs will have 1yr to deliver this product, where would you want their focus, time, resources to be put in to that's the question. The NBA live devs have proven time in and time again that they can't deliver a fully featured game with their method of working top to bottom. I don't know where you come from Black Bruce Wayne but where I come from we work from the bottom to the top.
This is NBA lives method in a nutshell, cool features, Dynasty mode, Pro am with subpar gameplay and animation, well the people have spoken and abandoned ship. The definition of insanity is when you do something over and over and you continue to get the same results. That's why I bring my method to the table, where you are truly working from the bottom on a core foundation than you eventually work your way up to the top by adding fully fledged out features, Dynasty mode, Pro am, customization, etc. Common Sense 101 and it doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure this one out.
