Bar none, the best NBA game on the market. Don't just take my word for it -- every expert reviewer is able to see the plain truth also.
Xbox360 and PS3 versions are nearly identical. Just don't waste your money and time on NBA live.
Great gameplay, signature moves, and special features. Would take me a year to play it all!

if you want the most realistic basketball simulation game out there... this is it. no more dunkfests kids. learn to play real basketball by running plays and knowing how to shoot the ball. the graphics are awesome. signature style is as cool as it sounds. if you don't want to play a simulation bball game, just turn option to arcade.
makes nbalive irrelevant.

Graphicaly, I think this is a big step up from 2K6 - there appears to be a lot more player animations and the game has a more realistic feel. This truly plays like a simulation. The addition of on the fly substituions is a tremendous feature and speeds up the game - although the game seems to move slower due to the various animations when the whistle blows can be little frustrating. The online experience is pretty good - I didn't notice as many hiccups as last year.
On the downside, Ive had a couple freezes early on but I hope that's an abberation.
All in all, this really is the best basketball game made - I gave up on Live years ago so I can't compare it.
