Over-analysis of the IGN NBA LIVE 2005 article.

Well, first of all, don't the graphics look a bit too exaggerated? It looks like everyone is having a heart attack when they dunk or something.
Kind of looks cartoonish too.
Second, they're showing pictures of dunks...I'm scared.....I have a feeling that they'll be more dunks per game in this one. Yes, every single LIVE series probably showed dunk pics as previews...but you know..just the thought of more dunks, more fancy moves and all that horrifies me.
Third, the PDA thing...hm...just sounds like a gimmick..kind of like that e-mail thing in MVP baseball...It's cool, but that's about it. And it gets annoying.
Free Agency...will it finally be right? I'm not sure...They always promise something like this and have NEVER been able to do it correctly. I hope the players would actually give responses or something like "I have no desire to play for such a horrible team like yours" or "Maybe if I receive 1.5M more" I don't know...I have a feeling it won't quite work as well.
Please, improve the Trade AI...
I wish NBA Live would go back to fundamentals...stop trying to do all that fancy stuff.
What makes winning eleven superior to FIFA soccer? there aren't too many fancy stuff and it's more REALISTIC. (Whoever likes FIFA over Winning is 1.) doesn't know soccer, 2.) is an idiot).
but I digress
It just seems that Live just keeps on adding "ooh, that would be cool" kind of stuff.
One thing I really liked though...the fact that now they won't crowd the middle...hm...let's see how it works. I hope it works well. The D improvement was great in Live 2004...now just weaken the offense...please..(yes, even with tweaks...just so people know)

Ehm, that's the point of that thread, to discuss it in that thread. This is just a post that belongs in that thread, no need for a whole new topic.

yes. Let's not create redundancy in the forums. Keep it in the ign article thread.
