I wanted the 08 version and when I got it, I was disappointed with this game. I have the NBA Live 04 and it is very fun to play. I would recommend not to get this game for pc but for what game system you have. This game is not very fun at all. They have tried to make it all better by adding really good graphics.
the music is not exactly what i would like to listen to but the game itself is good
The only issue is that it is almost impossible to defend anyone. The slam dunks, however are awesome. It is so realistic.
Your team will actually do worse. Overall, this games is great. I went on a 7 game losing streak with a perfect roster.
The is game is incredible. I've found that it is also not the best idea to create the perfect roster. Strongly recommend you buy this game.
The gameplay is exactly like what would play out in real life. When you try and defend someone or steal the ball from them, all that happens is you end up fouling them and it gets pretty annoying.
If you're any kind of basketball fan, you can't seriously like this. Hmmmm.
I used to be a huge fan, but Live has just gotten more and more insulting each year. Plus, the collision detection is awful and the gameplay is just sloppy and frustrating.
This game is a joke. I own that game, too, and Carlos Boozer is still rated 73, while Kirilenko is still rated 88.
Do yourself a favor and get NBA 2K9 if you want a good basketball PC game. Seriously.
First, they don't adjust many of the player ratings from like 2005.
Like changing rosters- if they arn't going to give us roster updates, just at least give us freedom to change it easily. EA will not make any patches, updates for the game because couple months after each live series is out, they are already finished making the next one simply chaning the number Live 08 to 09, 09 to 10 etc. EA, please consider firing your current live team. They should just make one solid game and have users buy patches every year and maybe, update the graphics every 2-3 years.
The reason why I mention this is that none of the live series after 2005 really improve the game from 2005, rather, the series gets worse every year. Try blocking shots in this game it feels like nothing. I "loved" the live series. The best one was 2005 in my opinion. The graphics, game physics, menus, system have not changed in a long time. It gets very boring very fast plus it has all the issues other reviers had mentioned.
and you know what. Do not waste your money on this piece of junk. EA really needs to wake up. I wish EA made this game so that the users have complete freedom. Sure, it may look a lil better and players get flashy signature moves or "zones" where they are supposed to get "hot" and make lots of shots. I'm so glad the 2k9 came out. I still play 2005 with updated rosters and player ratings adjusted to current players' abilities.
I just gave mine away to my lil cousin. This game has no substance, no replayable value. I won't re-list all the issues - I agree with almost all of them. None of these things matter unless the game is balanced and actually fun to play.
