[Laxation]

[Colin]

You can except your friend to do the video game equivalent of ramming you up the ass.

[Wormy10]

If your friend has a highflyer on his team you might as well quit...

[Mr.Funk]

after analyzing the data, further expamination and some final thoughts, i have come to a conclusion...........i will be buy 2k6. i didn't spend enough time with either to explore the depts of the games, but generally, 2k6 FEELS alot more smother than LIVE. the animations are better, alot more controlls, the graphics.............well, 2k6 faces looks identical to their real life counterparts, the body shapes perfectly and the shorts MOVES. LIVE players has big heads and little body. superstar controls gets repetitive, and it would feel and look alot better if the graphics are better. Yes, i have LIVE 2005, and its the same game. the only differents is the superstar controls, and like i said it gets repetitive, and i only play like an hour of the game. very disappointed EA. Its not funny any more, you guys are the BIGGEST game industry out there, and has 10 years of NBA game expirense, and thats how far we got? you bring the same garbage each year, thinking people will buy(and they do, stupid), because y'all got the name EAsports to back it up.

you do understand....each game has a budget?....madden looks good cuz they got a big budget....live does not have a big budget....so they did wat they can......

2K6 is also generally the same game as all the other NBA 2K games

Its just funny wen some user says Live06 is the same game as Live05 with the FSS...dat alone disproves ur post and ur wrong...have fun wit 2K, i know LIVE06 is the most authentic and realistic game out there and im loving it

[Mr.Funk]

2K6 is also generally the same game as all the other NBA 2K games

absolutely not! the game is completely different from 2k5(yes, i have that too). the graphics are the same, but there are alot more controls, and the AI is ver very smart, and i can see that in just a little while playing it.

hello, where have you been for the past 6 years, when 2k come up with a real SIMULATION style basketball. yea, LIVE is real aight, real like NBA JAM. c'mon LIVE is acarde style basketball. don't that tell you something-- SIM-real; arcade-nothing like the NBA

you probably still wouldn't belive me so let tell you what is in 2k6 that make it real: each team have they own style of offense--different play sets, taking shot ealier(suns), later(pistons). each supertar play differently--signature moves babe(kicks FSS ass). and if CPU is down 2 with a second left, we will actual see Kobe take the game winner instead of Mickie( what, i am shock, there is actually a nba game out there that do that????????). LIKE ya'll didn't know.

[Mr.Funk]

you do understand....each game has a budget?....madden looks good cuz they got a big budget....live does not have a big budget....so they did wat they can......

so what you're saying, 2k has a bigger budget than LIVE. , its all about the three Hs, Heart, Hustle, and Hardwork, just like the real NBA, something LIVE developers know nothing about. C'mon i was also LIVE maniac before i discover they were making the same garbagde each year.

Prove:

2004 and 2005, same game except of the All-star weeken. 2005-2006, same game except Freestyle Superstar. I dear anyone to tell me that there is actually some difference in terms of gameplay from LIVE 2004 to 06, c'mon i dear ya'll

but i have to give that to EA, they are very smart in terms of marketing. modes like allstar weeken and superstar controlls will just hype fans up.

2k are not that smart in terms of marketing, 24/7, the crib, VIP? WTF?

I've never tried the 2k series before, since I only play PC games... and Live is the only available basketball game for the PC... although 2k's features sound alot more attractive than an all star weekend. That's the thing NBA Live is missing. In depth features that's a bit RPG like. It would definitely make Live alot more enjoyable. I'd like to see Live 07 have sort of a mode similiar to "NFL Superstar" of Madden. Also it would be better if EA actually got some ppl with eyesight to test their games, not some blind ppl to test their games instead, cuz after playing it for a couple weeks, I've noticed many annoying bugs.

[Mr.Funk]

i see! nobody can say anything now

I have nba live 2006. I think it's great.. But ppl say 2k6 is sick. But is it like the same as last year's 2k game version. I hated 2k5, i hate the way they dunk..(a small PG like SLAMMIN the rim) and the way 2 shoot. Is it really good, I might get it.. I don't know.

well, i don't know, since you love LIVE, then theys a good chance you not going to like 2k6. LIVE and 2k are completely different games, LIVE arcade(i think you like it because you can score at every position), 2k6 SIM(you have to know to play NBA basketball to win in this game). YES, its a completely different game from 2k5. PG don't dunk anymore, once in a while, but just a one hand sofe dunk.

[Mr.Funk]

no one has anything to say ahhhh.

[flipz]

well hasnt the 2kfanboyism color finally showed up? after u was trying to mask it"oh ima live fan, live is great,live is dis" wen u really intended to say"live sucks,this game is arcade etc"...coming from a 2kfanboy well then ya i agree dat live06 is arcade, i guess dats how yall call live06( a game dat has captured the flashiness of the new era of basketball, where no teams score 60-70pts no more and superstars really do make a difference)i suppose the league is made up of boring players and boring teams.........This is a complete joke thread, to say 2K got signature moves and dat beats FSS?wut pot ur smoking?do u have any idea how FSS completely brings authenticy in live? hate it or love it, the league is all bout flare now, we aint playin old school basketball son,its all about flare now, so u have fun playing 2K HOWEVER do not be posting shit bout live...now go on, log out and go play 2K6

[tone wone]

I have Live '05 and brought '06 a couple of days ago.

If anyone says that Live '06 is exactly like '05 just ignore them and walk away.....cause they're lying and probably haven't played '06.

The feel of the game is IMO much better than '05. Last years game was choppy.....'06 is much smoother.

Now, the game isn't totally revempted. Like any game "series" ...there's a "flow" from one year to the next.

[Seonadancing]

I've never played 2K games before but I guess it's time to see what the differences are. I've heard a lot about their games but i was unwilling to try the game because it might mess up my controls. Anyway, I like Live 2006, i just want to see the difference.

OK, before i go, i have one more to say, Vince, Kobe, Lebron, Wade, they are all UNSTOPPABLE in 2k6. the stats match, each can give you a 60 game(but just once in a while to make it real). 7 as. 7. rb. a game.

[ShivaSquad]

each can give you a 60 game(but just once in a while to make it real).

thats real realistic? i dun think so

[igratzNBA]

i haven't played 2k6, but nba live 06 frustrates the hell out of me. i have offensive rebounding set down to 0 for cpu, and defensive rebounding set to 100 for player and the cpu STILL gets tons of offensive rebounds and put backs.

[Mr.Funk]

each can give you a 60 game(but just once in a while to make it real).

thats real realistic? i dun think so

so what you're saying, guys like vince, kobe can't give you 60 ppt game a season? go you nba.com and check their career highs people.

LIVE, you're going to see earl bokins score over 30 game, and take the game winner if neccessary. all that happens is that the PG bring the ball up court and dribble dribble then shoot. yea, thats realistic.

2k, you going to see actual play calling from the CPC, where the best player on the team is the the person they look to pass it too.
