Postby madskillz on Sat May 01, 2004 3:33 am

I've been playing NBA live only on PS2 and Xbox.. however what are the benefits for PC users? i'm thinking of gettin 2005 for PC. What do you think, what has more realistic game play between PC and PS2/xbox?

I dont think there are any benefits except for that u can play more seasons on PC. I believe that PS2 is better Graphic Wise, except if u have a very powerful computer :wink:

:idea: Patches, patches & patches. :idea:

I'll never make the mistake of purchasing Live for anything but PC again.

Yea. Patching would be the big advantage.

Also that you can edit most stuff...
This year a whole lot of people were complaning that they coudn't edit players head-gear.
With PC they can do that with a little editing...

To have a PS2 or XBox would be sort of like having a good computer.
So I don't know if the graphic got any real different in between. I might be wrong though...

As far as gameplay goes, there is no difference between the PC and console versions.

I would recommend the PC version due to the reasons already mentioned. Needless to say, if your PC isn't capable of running NBA Live 2005 and you're not looking to upgrade anytime soon, the console version is the better choice. But if your PC's specs aren't a problem and you have a dual analog gamepad, then I definitely recommend the PC version.
