[Alcoholic]

You should put the last updated date in your topic kind of like dynasty central so people don't have to keep looking in to see if its updated or not.

[Jay-Peso]

Thanks man.

Good idea.

[Nick]

And put a next to the new ones.

[hmm]

cant we also make a rumour thread ? The biggest rumour around is slam dunk comp. and i believe it will be done.Konami did it years ago on "in the zone".but you know it is konami *RESPECT*

[Jay-Peso]

And put a next to the new ones.

Done.

Basically states the same info as the other articles but...

EA has promised some surprise announcements in the months to come including what we suspect is some sort of ‘Crib” feature but don't quote us on that.

Sound sorta like the NBA Store but with a different place where you can see all of what you unlocked, like maybe a locker.

[Jackal]

We've read about the crib feature already.

Yea I read that. I do believe it is in one of the other articles but hey I'll add that one in too!

New screens @ Operation Sports added

[K-Mart.6]

someone know how will be Memphis New jersey?

cause they change their logo,colour and i can't wait june 17 to see them

[Jay-Peso]

I will be finding out some more inside info as soon as I can. I talked to an EA Beta Tester and he said they are testing other games and when he knows something he will tell me. SOOO, I will let you know as soon as I know.

Hope fully some good stuff

[fgrep15]

It's not new but I don't thnk it's here:

In NBA Live 2005, if you try to jump-stop into a defender (instead of splitting two defenders), you'll lose control of the ball and turn it over. We definitely noticed this change in our play-testing on the E3 show floor.

Unfortunately, EA wasn't ready to give details on the revamped franchise mode in NBA Live 2005. It did say that the aim was to add additional features, giving it a more "Madden-like" level of depth.

Well, pretty soon I will have some screens and some more information from an EA Beta Tester. These are not public yet(like screens that have been released to the public) but I am going to get my hands on them and I will let everyone know

If he gets them, and gives them to me, I will. I don't have them yet but I will have them soon

Hopefully.

[Andrew]

I've looked into this, and I'm afraid we won't be able to post any news or screenshots from a tester. However, we'll hopefully get some news and screens of our own in the near future - it's just a little early at the moment.

Updated

another preview.

New collision models have been added for more realism based on momentum and mass. If Shaq bumps into Damon Stoudamire, Damon’s going to be flying across the floor. Likewise, don’t expect Shaq to give up much ground with that massive caboose of his.
