I'll start by saying that I initially purchased nba 2k10.
I didn't care for last years version for online gameplay but I was hoping it would be better this year. Sadly the game still had alot of bugs (slow glitchy gameplay, no online lobbies).
So I sold it and took the plunge with NBA Live 10 and couldn't be happier. Online matches are much smoother than NBA 2k10 and the controls are very responsive.
Defense is great in this game!
No more having to hold down a button to shuffle your feet as it does it automatically (same with rebounding position). Defense is all about staying in front of your man and getting help/helping your teammates.
NBA Live is no longer a dunk fest and players will have to pass the ball around to break down the defense.
That leads me to play calling which is very smooth and intuitive. It's rewarding to execute plays on your opponent.
Overall Live is great simulation basketball online!
Very cool game. As you play, it links up with ESPN and you hear real time updates from the day's sports news and games. Cool feature. Also allows you to shoot around during loading screens which is way cooler than staring at a screen and doing nothing.
This game is awesome...I love the gameplay improvements...graphics are great...Live has sucked the last couple of years but this one is awesome...In my opinion this is better than 2k this is year..just much more fun but still arealistic sim...this isnt the dunk fest of the previous lives..BUY IT NOW..
