live10democ

While I have yet to play enough of the NBA Live 10 demo to post my formal impressions, I did want to get up at least one HD video today of a play-through. Setting the stage for this video it is from the second time I played the demo and as such I was not completely familiarized with the controls and other gameplay changes. Full impressions and more videos will go up tomorrow.

Check out the 3:43-3:56 segment which is my favorite part and I didn’t even realize how cool it looked until I re-watched it after. Continue on to view the video and leave your thoughts in the comments!

    I can say the more I play it the more I'm enjoying it. At first it felt a little sloppy, but I think its just a matter of getting acclimated with the changed controls and gameplay enhancements.

    The positive fact is the Kerr and Marv Albert commentary is better then 2k's

    Screens and Picks run well. Passing looks a bit harder this year.

    Player Models not as good as 2k's. Sound is pretty good not sure if they will add more crowd

    variations before the final build. Anyone know what version this is?

    I personally feel that too beat 2k something unreal is needed.

    Also like 2k Draft Combine.

    I am not biased towards Live or 2k and usually rent both then decide. It has been 2k though since

    NBA 2k2 on Dreamcast though.

    Only thing that looks good is the graphics…they are getting better but 2k is so ahead of Live. Oh and pasta the segment you pointed out is a travel he took 4 steps i guess a glitch already in the game where he doesnt dribble

    Well Pasta did notice the teleport of Bynum at the 5:05 mark in the video?

    I hope that it an animation issue. I have enjoyed the demo. It is going to take a minute to learn the controls.

    @k has been my game of choice but I like what I have seen with EA Sports this year.

    what game doesn't have glitches? 2k has them as well. rhw gameplay looks good the movement of the players are nice not as stiff as 09 was the a.i. seems to play a bit smarter rebounds look good although when i played i saw a lil bit of warping on rebounds jus a few not too much im sure they will have it cleaned up to some extend on the final product. the controls are amazing love the dribble mechanics, i love how you can combine regular dribble moves with your sizeups and branch out of moves to do other things as well really feels like you have control of your player. overall the game is good i admit 2k prob gonna get the edge this yr but man next yr its gonna be very interesting i cant wait to picks up both live and 2k on Oct 6

    Meh went from a " non purchase" to a "use my free rental from blockbuster to pick it up for a week". Looks alot better than last years but still not the better basketball game IMO.

    I love how everyone on not only this sight thing that live isn't a good game and say that 2k is better despite showing a single video. I think that both games are good and have had enough of everyone taking a side. If you are a basketball fan you don't take a side and just enjoy both games.

    sorry…not enough defense for my tastes. 2K had this issue…LAST YEAR.

    players move too unnaturally too.

    DEAL BREAKER: the lakers are a good defensive team with two Seven footers who block (or change) alot of shots…and one of the most non-aggressive would-rather-shoot-a-jumper-than-go-to-the-hole-any-day players in the league (rashard lewis) goes to hole and dunks in traffic and bynum never even takes a step towards him?

    whats this ANDONE basketball 10?

    thanks…but NO THANKs.

    What a shock, once we see actually gameplay, this looks just like 09, jerky animations, unrealistic. Were the players dipped in vaseline before they came onto the court?

  • Hawkeye4077

    Yeah, nice try but still see some potential major problems. Live has been the game that has made the most improvement the past couple of years, but I wouldn't go overboard with the praises just yet. I see really bad AI play on defense. I played on Superstar setting and it was way too easy to drive the lane and always had guys wide open for jump shots. I suspect that they worked with the NCAA FB 09 crew because that game was a joke defensively. The gameplay mechanics are solid and I like the game speed. A lot is going to rest on how effective the sliders are in the actual game for me.

    Live has upgraded big time for the 2nd year in a row. That cushion that 2k had is diminishing. I will buy 2k10 this year. But by next year, its gonna be a real hard decision. Live is almost there, though. This is coming from a 2k fanboy, no less.

    Guys,

    I know you may be having some trouble with defense, and this is partially our fault (not for what you're thinking). We were guilty of having the "lock" control making it easy for you guys to play face up close on your man. In LIVE, you have to pick and choose who you do that to. Gap your man, make him come to you, and contest the jumper. You'll find a ton of success this way. We're forcing you to know matchups and when to be up close, and when to gap.

    Wow, i really liked this game when i tried the demo. The shooting feels better now but i still have some issues about the animation. I like the fact that i can play the way Kobe does in actual games. The usual stop and pop surprisingly works in this game. I havent tried playing the Magic yet so i dont really know if the shooting is the same.

    What might be a dealbreaker for me is that on ball defense is extremely hard. Even on pro dificulty i cant seem to stay in front of derek fisher with nelson most of the time. Cant stay in front of kobe at all. I also don;t like the fact that the ball is a pinball inside a lot of times with the blocks.

    Graphically it's amazing, but has lag issues.

    dealbreaker for me is the lack of defense……i'm onna play a lot more today, though.

    - Graphics look nice, but it looks like I'm watching an English Premier Football match (soccer) or a British TV show if you know what i mean (graphic style).
    - Also the CPU team seems to only make one pass on offense and then the player who catches the ball would shoot it, very predictable (one pass then shoot), there wasn't that much ball movement by the CPU.
    - Another thing I noticed is that there is major Sliding when players are moving around the court, it looks like they're skating even though their legs are moving.

    Perhaps you should take some reading comprehension tutorials. Read my post again: "really bad AI play on defense". That would mean the AI is terrible on defense, not me, duh.

    I've been a 2k guy the last few years, but not because I'm a fan boy, because it's just been the better game. I'm not going to reserve any game this year. I've played the Live Demo and hopefully will play the 2k demo before the game comes out. I'm going to try to buy the best game based on hands on play and reviews from trusted sources. Don't just buy 2k just because. If 2k sales drop a little that will light a fire at 2k and they'll have even more motivation to come back even stronger. That's the beauty of competition!

    live is still in rebuilding mode, 09 was the first step in the right direction and this years is better so they are moving forward with improving the game every year so it will take time but i still may buy.

    Don't know, still doesn't looks like it can dethrone 2K to me. I know 2k has issues but it is still a superior game to Live.

    It's funny to hear people talk about how great 2K is but never mention the amount of glitches, bad AI, dunks in traffic, and crappy controls.

    FANBOY-ISM is not a good look. I buy the best game out. I don't care who makes it.

    And let's hope that 2K fixes the "glitch" where, when selecting throwback jerseys from the start menu, they actually show up this time.

    Let's also hope that 2K fixes the "glitch" where Kobe could go 12 for 25 from the field, but when you select the "shot selection" screen, the "x's" and "o's" don't add up to 12 makes and 25 shots overall.

    Let's be real folks. Talkijng about "gameplay" only goes so far. When your stats are jacked, you have to play on 8 minute quarters just to get realistic stats, and there are enough canned animations to open your own grocery store, then is the "gameplay" really all that great?

    Some of you won't like it but the truth is the truth…

    Graphics are great. I like a lot of the presentation things they are doing, but gameplay is not on 2K's level. From the Demo I would say they may approach an 8 in ratings as long as 2K stay's on par with some minor additions they should approach a 9.

    Looking at the big font at the back of 2K's jerseys for the surnames immediately makes me think that Live is better.

    Live has taken huge strides to improve its game. 2K already had a solid product that has had some visual enhancements over the past few years with little change to gameplay, which isn't bad.

    I am looking at Live. I am having a blast with the demo. There are a few minor visual issues but nothing that detracts from the game. EA finally took the handcuffs off of the player with improved controls and the atmosphere is sweet. The net animations are more realistic this year as well..

    Either way, hoops gamers win….

    This is a good game, from what I can tell. But I have a real hard time playing with the "broadcast" presentation. I would be able to have a better feel for the game if I could change the camera view. I'm still playing NBA 2k8 right now.

    Ok so after spending a lot of time with the demo I have to say that I really like it. The presentation is great & when playing it definately has a broadcast feel to it. The net animations are finally right (although not as fluid as 2K's). The player models are good (though a little on the cartoony side). I love the total control dribbling! This is one area that Live definately has the advantage over 2K in. I really feel like I have control of my player unlike in the past. Most of all the game is much more fluid. Good job EA but it's about damn time! Live 10 is what Live 06 should've been!

    yup. i played this demo then popped in 2k9 afterwards and something just felt different. Live 10 just didn't feel right to me. its just something about the gameplay and how the game looks. Im going with 2k10 this year.

    Live has made some great improvements but they have ways to go before they catch up to 2K. from watching the demos, the advantages that Live has over 2K is the ballhandling, jerseys, and shoes. Otherwise though 2K's gameplay overall, commentary (for once), and graphics overall just blow live out the water.
