How is EA Sports?

I think EA's not that great. They ALWAYS, have some major mistakes when they release the game. And custom art is super annoying.. why did they ever add that? That and numerous others.

Their lack of roster updates, or very slow in coming, really annoys me. It's almost like they don't put a full effort in to it. NBA Live has been sitting, waiting for me to put together an updated roster for weeks now. Really blows.

EA's been improving every year as far as gameplay goes. Its just bugs in dynasty mode and some minor bugs in gameplay.

I have played ESPN NBA Basketball and I prefer Live over it. Sure, ESPN looks alot better and has a better franchise mode but their gameplay cant beat Live's. In ESPN if you press crossover he does like a series of crossovers and then the defender takes a charge or steals the ball. Its just stupid. You cant even drive out of a crossover move in ESPN.

as a die hard sega fan (i blame ea for single handedly killin the dreamcast) i think espn nba is the best bball simulation out there, its very realistic with minor slider tweeks, it looks 10 times better, there are more moves with iso-motion then with freestyle (i prefer last years freestlye over this years) but enough listing why espn nba is better since the live fanboys will bitch about what i say anyway...live is good but if espn comes over to the pc, live might be in trouble, sega just needs ta get more people exposed to the game, when that happens i dont think theres anything ea could do to keep live on top

Well, I assume Roster Updates cannot be done in Dynasty, so why don't you just update the rosters yourself instead of waiting around for EA to bring an update out?
