We have to be honest here people. Ive always been dedicated and loyal to yhe live series but this year, ESPN just blows live out the water. HAve you seen the movies? From the courtside actions, crowd, dancers, mascots. I mean everyhing is right there. All refs in the game and the move and dont disappear like the live one does. The crossover dribble moves even appears more fuild and conviencing. The gamepaly also looks like it won't be too far off Live's. SO when you adding all the little details that EA omtitted like the freethrows rituals and so on, it makes ESPN just that much better than Live. I just cant deny it anymore, the only reason I was so loyal to the Live series was mainly because the games generally look better on the PC than the consoles besides, i can patch the hell out of it. but now that i have a console, I can finally be more Objective. I think EA has got too confident and just dont try as hard anymore. I mean the left out refs for the past three years while 2k series has had them all along. now that EA brought the refs back, they are as stiff as my Dick when i think of Halley berry naked. Its just inexcusable.
I know most people would say as long as the gameplay is good...... but thats not so true anymore, i mean, if ESPN can do both to add to the realism of the game, why not EA?
